Hi there,

I know this is not really a topic for this forum as it is not a Ferrari,Maserati or Lamborghini but I thought you guys might appreciate it anyway.

I was on my way to see a client today who runs a pub in the back streets of Stoke on Trent, I turned down a side street near the pub and this was the sight that greeted me.

I am so glad that I always make sure I have my small digicam in the car as I would have hated to have missed taking a picture of this one.





Sorry for the off topic thread.

Regards

Tim

Don't apologise. Still stunning after all these years. Amazing to see one just parked on the pavement like that. Only ever seen one on the road (in Marlow). Great pics.

The Chap that owns Suttons Haulage has one like that, and he lives not far from Stoke-on-Trent too (I know his son Rob) - might be his. Great spot though. I've seen a really horrid metallic green one in Knutsford quite a few times too.

yes absolutely!
the 220's such a beautiful, unclutterd design. IMO it'll still look great for many years to come yet!
good spotted Tim!

Hi there,

This one was at the Lamborghini Supercar Celebration last year, had the GT front spoiler fitted and it did look superb.

So I'm the only one who thinks it's pretty ugly, then?

Nope, I have to agree with you, it's not nice IMO.
Looks like a Matchbox car.

Lovely thing - great to see one being used.

SO cheap at the moment. I'm sure 10 years from now anyone that could afford to buy and keep one and doesn't will regret not doing so.

Can't really compete with that im afraid, but in London today i saw a 996 GT2, a Venturi Atlantique 400GT and Alan Sugar roll past in his Phantom! It was a good day.

Cheers
