Was on the way back from Mercedes Benz World I saw one of these on the M25 driven by an old dear. First time I've ever seen on in the flesh, let alone on the road.

A Rambo Lambo LM002



So, anyone care to see my best and raise?

Dark red Maclaren F1 (being driven with huge restraint)going south on the A1M.

It was cruising at 60mph odd all the way down a 7 mile dead straight 4 lane carriageway.
I don’t think id have the self restraint to do that.

A Bristol 400 - Nowhere near this condition but really nice to see. Also spotted a 405 as well. I think there was a gathering somewhere.

I'm pretty sure I saw one of these in Aberdeen last night.
I was at quite a distance, like across the field, but it looked so much like one.
If not, it was a very well kept Land Rover Defender, but i'm 90% sure it was a lamborghini!


Anyway, my contribution, the new Porsche 911 Sports Classic. Only 250 being made.




Damnit, why does it have to be "this year" hehe I saw a heap of very rare cars last year!

If you drive down a certain street in Mayfair, you're bound to see one. It's parked there most days, obviously the owner doesn't have a garage. smile

It's been a good year for rare car spotting this year for me:
Mclaren F1 last month (A325 Farnham - Bordon, turning to go to Alton).
Morgan Aero 8 last month too, we swapped appreciative waves (centre of Liphook)
Ferrari F40 this week (driving through Ripley, near Woking).

I suppose the rarest one would be the Mclaren MP4-12C in zebra camouflage driving south bound through Woking on the A320 but that was last year.

Saw one of these a few weeks ago. Had to do some research to find out what it was. Luckily, I took down the reg, which helped.

They made 77 of them in the early 30's..not sure how many are still around. Was suprised to see one for sale for €850,000. eek

Oh, almost forgot to say what it is... An Invicta Type S.
