Supercars spotted, some rarities (vol 6)

There will only be 375 P1 (about 260 have been delivered) and there should be only 499 LaFerraris. Ferrari has a bit of a habit of making more cars than it says it will, so there may be more.

If you mean in the UK, then I know of 21 P1 currently registered in the UK and 12 LaFerraris. This will partly be due to the fact that LaFerrari production was delayed with problems in the US market. Also, many of the first 100 P1s were delivered to closer markets to home, meaning a significant number of the UK allocation was delivered earlier in the production cycle.

In the end, there will be around 30 P1s delivered to the UK, of which 10 or so are expected to go overseas. One left almost straight away and has been used regularly and another is, I am almost certain, up for sale in the Germany. This said, one P1 has already been imported back into the UK from 'mainland' Europe.

There should be around 50 LaFerraris delivered to the UK (I am happy to be corrected on this). I am basing this on the fact that there are around 42 Enzos registered in the UK.

I hope this helps

Spotted this doing the rounds locally this morning

[9six4]

Americana cruising in Tokyo this afternoon...

[smithyithy]

Spotted a year or 2 old Merc SL65 AMG at the services today, dark blue.

Totally unassuming for a £170k car, had to do a double-take..

I'm sure if I like that or not...

Popped out for breakfast this morning and this beauty was parked outside the restaurant. A Mercedes Benz AMG GT in matt grey. Looked very nice, although I think I'd need the salesman to talk me through the interior as there were a million buttons in there.

F-Type R with the carbon ceramic brake option in Newbury this morning.

[Pesty]

Well that's answered that question.

F type for me.


The amg gt coupe looks odd with the window at the back blacked out.

[B1G GK]

First glance of the rear of the AMG shouted Porsche 928.

I see exactly the same car in Andover most days. Does look good.

Press them all. What's the worst that can happen?

Lovely brace of P1s.

A W220 S55 caught my attention yesterday. Proper "iron fist in a velvet glove" car.

Thats as close to a supercar as you get in Chippenham...

What a car to be "popping out to the local".

Near Whitmore, Staffordshire in 2013

My fiesta rs turbo was stolen (never recovered) in 1994 from the spot where the white ford is parked.

We were sleeping in the bedroom directly above the words two necks.

Small world.

Still a 3.7 litres and 4 cylinders thirstier than my current steed; I wouldn't kick it offy drive!

I've seen a few moderns around, including an R8 Spyder pretty regularly. Also, a certain Mr N Mason lives just down the road, culminating in me seeing an AM V8 Vantage Zagato in Sainsbury's a few months ago.

+1 . Dreadful looking things. Too big, too open, too fussy. Look like they've been lifted from a high spec mondeo or focus, ( F type S multi spoke's on the other hand look great)

Nope, I can't get it.

Please, what is this car?

It was in the Ferrari museum, some artist geezer designed it

[zimzoom]

LaFerrari at work, I suspect it was the buildings owner, he has quite the collection of cars in the basement!

[OutOfSync]

Ford GT (with US bumper and he ain't moving from there without a tin opener ...)




Jaguar XK140 (I think)



XKRS

MC12 plus 458 Challenge in the background
