A bit of resurrection, but I noticed this when browsing this thread,

Saw this stunning Maserati today on the M20. I dont even know what model it is but it was mint.

After a bit of trolling google.. It's a 5000GT.
yes A rarity as only 34 5000GTs were ever made - http://www.maserati-indy.co.uk/alfieri70.htm
Of those, 22 had coachwork by Carrozzieri Allemano. However only one was produced in red (Rosso).
So it would seem that this is car number 103.026 - production date 03.01.1962 - a true one-off.

2010 Salon Privé at Hurlingham- http://www.supercars.net/Pics?viewPic=y&source...
A couple of oddities. The caption (1963) appears to be wrong. Also, why has it has been allocated a B suffix?
That ran from Jan-Dec 1964: a whole 2 years after the date given in the link above.

Saw a black db9 in Bybrook Sainsbury's today, then an immaculate 80s/90s black Carrera in Wincheap in the afternoon.

Also saw two C63s, one on the A28 then one on New Dover Road. The second one made an amazing noise as it got floored away from the lights smile

Was out for a sunday morning blast in the Cerb yesterday and had great spot...

A White Ford RS200 on Udimore Road near Rye yesterday at 11:45.

He was absolutely gunning it in the opposite direction! The noise was incredible as it shot past...

No idea if it was real or replica though... Anyone on here?

Love those cars. Was it the gold or the green? If it was the green colour it was a v spec 2 nur. Gorgeous car IMO. Think they did them in gold too

Yellow Corsa LP11 *** on the A1060 this afternoon.

Not a great Corsa fan but I did like the shade of Yellow.

Not sure if it was a VXR version or not.


Grigio F430 Spider, 13 JK on the A414 between Harlow and Stansted Abbots.
