This week's wheels of Jurno/Supercar Club CEO/ International Diamond Thief...

Something a bit more Gangsta! this week.

Haven't been passed this house for a year because of lockdown but there's an Alpina B3 outside today

Pretty sure standard big bumpered Mk2, t’internet says only 666 G30 GTi’s were made...

Spoke to the guy driving it, he has done a lot of work to it, whilst keeping it standard looking
I thought the G60 Mk2s were all left-hookers, I don't think I recall seeing a RHD one unlike the Corrado equivalent..
Factory G60s had a red "G60" badge on the grill and different BBS alloys. Also the car above was LHD as you can see it still has the LHD wiper set up so must have been converted.

I'll post this here - not worth a new thread

On Wednesday I was south of Birmingham (no idea what motorway - I was in full on satnav mode trying to a bunch of commuting nutters)

Heading west at about 18:00 I spotted 'something' and despite my car knowledge (not too bad) and google foo i'm stumped!

Orange, looked like a Corvette C8 (ish) from the front but it had triangular rear lights?

I really only had a fleeting glance at it - any ideas?
Some lambos have triangular rear lights!

Lexus LC is another one

Maserati mc20

Depends what you mean by 'triangular'.

Honda NSX?

Never seen a 2002 turbo in yellow before .
I’ve never seen a 2002 turbo, period. I was in awe when I saw it.
It's too early to be an original turbo, they only came with square rear lights. Lovely thing anyway.

My first thought was “oh no, another engine fire damaged car”

Hell yes, absolutely timelessly beautiful!

Saw a yellow La Ferrari near Tunbridge Wells yesterday, I find them fairly underwhelming compared to the F40

Not a WOW from me, looks wrong with strange rear end and the Challenge Stradale wheels don suit it at all.

Its the correct rear end for the F512M.

Looked wrong even when it was launched. So did the headlights.

512TR was peak Testarossa.

The whole look of the 512M was a low point, especially the original wheels



512TR for me too please.

Heard this before I saw it this morning in Wimborne, Dorset.
Not enjoying the current trend for odd-shaped number plates. Always thought the rear of an 812 is quite nice but the plate makes this one look terribly sad.

Supercars in Dubai are two a penny, can’t move for Lamborghinis and Ferraris. But hold on, that was only a 250 GTO hooning around the Business Bay Area tonight! Impressive even by local standards.

Lovely car.

97 miles from 2019 MOT to 2020 MOT!

And I hope he's sorted the corrosion smile

Yes the Fiat X/19 is a limited edition Bertone one. This particular car was my first car I bought from new and had it for 5 years before selling it. There were only a few built that came to the UK and I bought one as I used to work for Magnetti Marelli. So if anyone know who owns it let me know as I would like to buy it back.

What X1/9?

Oh, and if it's a Bertone one (even though they were all Bertone designed), then it's not a Fiat X1/9. smile
