Mate, I think you need to recalibrate your 'lovely' scale! biggrin A Rover 820i???
I’m a fan of the boring cars lol. Maybe the 488 GTB or Nissan Silvia on Linthorpe Road this afternoon would have been more to your taste haha

Nah - always nice to see cars like the 488 (not so much the Nissan!) but the last car that really made me turn my head (and subsequently watch in the mirrors of my own car) was the black-on-black Rolls Royce Wraith next to the Blue House Roundabout on Tuesday afternoon.

I love seeing interesting cars - old or new. If I see an old (or ageing) car that was interesting when it was new, then it remains interesting now. When a car was a total stbox, age does not make it less of a stbox. All IMHO of course! Variety is the spice of life and all that. smile
I love seeing a Rolls, seem to be quite a few Wraiths and Ghosts in the north east.

I suppose my age really comes into it, been 20 seeing a Rover 800 is quite an oddity so to me personally that makes it interesting.

The world would be boring if everyone was into the same thing

Saw a red Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth struggling in the snow last night just outside my house in Billingham, it sounded unreal
