COOL CLASSIC CAR SPOTTERS POST! (Vol 3)

[bolidemichael]

Spotted at Richmond Park, it looked so long in yellow. I loved it, my wife not so impressed.

Banana!

I must admit I have a soft spot for yellow cars (despite only ever owning one - a Renault 5TL).

Apparently statistically the safest car colour to own? I suppose it's a "high-viz" car.

Yellow cars seem to attract the green fly though?

Shame the Bicester Flywheel isn't happening this year.

I kind of prefer the regular 911s without the go faster add-ons. A good 70s colour with no whale tail works for me. What's Strela's car?

The orange SL looks a lot like the one owned by a guy who used to contribute to a few threads on here. He had a good turn of phrase and had some remarkable experiences to report. Shame he's not around anymore, apparently.

Generally I agree about 911s but in about 1977 there was a copy of MotorSport in the house with a Martini striped Turbo in it. I couldn't take my eyes off it, so it has left a mark!

Lovely 23 window samba in Marlow. Interior not yet finished.

[MiltonBaines]

Nice AX Gti with a chavved up 3 series.

And in the same car park a fairly mint looking 318i.

The Isle of Man TT always brings some interesting vehicles! P.S: the trail of liquid is from the recently watered planter, not the 3 wheeler..

[85Carrera]

WTF is that?

Looks very home built, not that necessarily is a bad thing ...

You need your "brave pants" on in one of those!

Looks like some sort of Moggy Replica not a Triking but something like that? The radiator is odd as most replica three wheelers use air cooled bike engines (Moto Guzzi in Trikings). It's a bike engine a "V twin" by the looks but water cooled?

cx500 honda ?

It's a JZR with a Honda CX500 (or 650) bike engine. Crackin' fun.

Thanks, never heard of them before (but then I'm not in the market for such a thing, it's a lack of cojones / desire to live thing) love the concept would look better with an air-cooled engine though. IMO of course.Does it come with a tooth pick for those pesky flies?

No pictures I’m afraid, as I was driving in opposite direction.

A convoy of classics travelling east along A55 on Anglesey in pouring rain this afternoon

Everything from mk2 Cortina, Morgan, MGB GT, Mini, Triumph TR3, Austin Healey 3000


And obviously having been held up a Lotus Elan+2 ‘making progress’ to catch up!

A great sight to see that a bit of weather doesn’t stop enthusiasts

Well Done
