Supercars spotted, some rarities (Vol 4)

[Fun Bus]

Down the road parked or down the road as if it was on a test drive from Graypaul? They've had a 51' plate F40 in the workshop for a week or so actually so could have been that one.

I was behind a Volkswagen Scirocco R today, are they rare?

Not really.

They are fairly rare, only seen about 4 on the road but they are not a supercar.

a white sls amg merc and then 30 seconds later a black 458 italia

You seeing 4 doesn't make them particularly rare, it's just not common around where you live I suppose..

Approx. 450 in the UK I believe.

Rarer than I thought then! Saw one the other day too, didn't think much of it.

Apologies, not a great picture, and not a supercar by any means.

Corolla T-Sport TTE Compressor. Don't think they made that many of these, so certainly a rarity.

There is an SLS on the Stoke CIty car park on match days that I always drool over. W1rks is the plate I recall. And of course Peter Coates' Phantom

500 total, 250 to the UK by all accounts.

Thanks! It was only the 2nd I've seen in the wild, and knew there weren't many, but never knew the exact figures!

Passed an '11 plate Aston Martin Rapide on the M56 yesterday, heading east around 16:30. Very nice looking motor.

[Penfolds]

Stumbled upon this yesterday, such a good looking car!

pulled up alongside a silver sls amg at the lights on the outskirts of my local town. Nice surprise to see a car like that around here! And what a lovely sound too

Guess what?! Guess what?!

I have seen 4 of these today along with 3 Enzos, 3 599GTOs, an Alfa 8C and an FF customer car. All in the same place amongst various other stunning bits of kit.

All in Graypaul though so doesn't count for this thread though.

Nice..... Graypaul never fails to please... Just wait till next March
Any pics? Out of interest what colour were the Enzo's?

[Fun Bus]

No pics. 2 x Rosso Enzos (one of which I think belongs to 3 Veyron man SR? ENZ 111) and the PB Enzo in the dark red. All 4 F40s in Rosso (one of which was a '51 plate with the WHOLE backend off and engine out!). 599GTO in Giallo with black roof(in the top corner of the showroom) another in dark red and can't remember the 3rd! The FF was Rosso Fiorano with Cuoio. So much to take in I can't remember anything of significance.

I only mentioned in passing to Lance, the salesman I was hoping to see the FF demo as my OH hadn't seen one in the flesh yet. Next thing, he's walking us through the workshops, into the back compound and then the valeting bay trying to find it to show us. He's always a top bloke when I see him - think he's starting recognise me now!

ETA: The FF had the Sport forged wheels - a twin spoke design. Didn't sit right to me, prefer the standard 5-spokes.
