Earlier today, blue Nissan GTR and this Maserati Quattroporte on Oystermouth Road by the LC2, Swansea.

That’s not just any QP. That’s a Quattroporte Sport GTS - 450 bhp of four door fun. Google Maserati Intouchables to listen to that wonderful 4.7 litre V8.
I've seen that car (very close to that location actually) and it really is a fabulous looking thing. I strongly believe that in the future the Maserati QP will be remembered as one of the best looking saloon cars ever, couple it to an amazing "old school" performance engine and I can see them being very desirable classics! The new ones don't even scratch the surface when it comes to looks frown

I passed a McLaren 650 down Swansea valley on Wednesday, it was bright orange and might have been a spyder, made my R8 seem a little dull by comparison hehe

Few spots while doing some legwork towards Singleton Hospital. Aston Martin DB11 on Mumbles Road by St Helens RFC, Ford Focus RS in white in the car park by Singleton Park and these 2 slightly note-worthy spots around the Uni Campus and the hospital. Granted the Lexus RC is the 300 Hybrid but still quite a sleek looker, despite that 'vacuum cleaner' grille.

4 more from today in Swansea, others not photographed include another Panamera, white Overfinch RR Sport, Bony's Brabus and various AMGs.

Porsche Panamera 4



Range Rover Sport Lumma CLR RS and Rolls Royce Wraith a split second apart



Normally I don't tend to photograph i8's but after seeing a Spyder version in the BMW showroom last night and seeing the 2 Formula E events in London a few years ago where they use the i8 as a safety car, I've had a bit more of a soft spot, then this one earlier forced me to photograph it, at the LC2 car park.

There was a Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Premium in Porthcawl in satin black, which may be a wrap as it is supposed to be blue.

It's not a roadster is it? I know there's a matte black roadster which frequents Swansea along Oystermouth Road.

The four door coupe? Did it have a short number plate?

Swansea waking up in the afternoon to the smell of slight exotics. The BMW Ferrari Kalifornia replica by LC2, the silver Huracan again on foreign plates with a young looking brunette at the wheel and an orange McLaren 600LT which drove past LC2 and made an elderly couples day.

Saw a Tesla Model S near the Malpas straight today, more interestingly looked like it had Taxi plates in. Couldn't get close enough to see. Is this Newport registered or a visitor from fields afar?

I believe the Bentley owner has a company in Metropole Chambers in town as he's parked there every day in the afternoon. Also noticed the Infiniti for a couple of days. Also was the Cayman a 718 by any chance? Seen more of them than Corsas lol
