I really appreciate those photos. Thanks for taking the time to share them with us.

You're welcome!

Superb pics as always. MK1 Golf a lovely surprise. Is there something sinister about the blue Rav4 ?? Plate seems to hint at it….

Thanks! No, I don't think there's anything lurking under the bonnet. The owner used to have the plate on a Celica GT-Four.

Oooooh a Crown ... this may have been covered but what is driving like around the hills? It looks very chilled out compared to some places

Sorry, missed this. Not great, as there's no quiet road in HK, but I guess better than stuck in heavy traffic in the city.

Amazing pictures as usual. That Saab!!! And that crazy pink Huracan! Idk what it is but if it were done here it would seem in poor taste, but the way they did it over there, just works... Amazing!

Anyone know what body kit the black SL63 had on it?

Thanks again Rupro! I'm over the moon when I see there's been activity on this thread.

That's great! Thanks so much for the kind words. Not sure what the kit is on the SL63 I'm afraid... but, here's some more content for you ...

What cars are these?

Thanks for the pics rupro! Have you managed to spot the orange Diablo again? The one we spoke about a few pages back?

Top one is a Mitsubishi FTO GPX. There used to be so many here, but now they're a rarity. Cool looking cars IMO.

The green one is an early-90s Toyota Levin with a couple of mods...

Nope, not seen the orange Diablo around for a long while.

Thanks for the info!

I really miss HK, can't wait to visit again! Have things settled down? Looking forward to your next picture post!

That Toyota Estima MPV is jaw dropping

Meh, I'd go with the Corolla personally.

Amazing!

What car is the weird four door with the soft top?

Toyota Will... there's one somewhere near me complete with speed moss

Take the plunge. I would also love one.

Sadly I can't justify it against other priorities right now, and by the time I can they'll probably be outlawed in the UK!

If my numbers come in, however...

[TheJimi]

Can you imagine being offered any one car out of that lot, and having to choose?!

I'd struggle to see past that Z-Tune.

[Gompo]

Great shots as usual, thanks.

That DC8(?) Integra from a few posts back got me searching for one for sale in the UK.

Cheers! Integras are utterly lovely and incredibly popular here (as are all Type-Rs), is it the 'DB8' 4-door ITR you're referring to? They're properly cool and you see them quite a bit here. Another one to add to my 'missed the boat' file...

[Prohibiting]

Awesome photos. Thanks for sharing.

Sorry yes, DB8, which I did know but just had 'DC' on my mind with the whole Integra thing! I remember there being one for sale in the UK probably 10+ years ago, but back then it didn't interest me. Now with age I quite like the idea of a compromised but more practical Type R (and very rare in the UK). Unfortunately I doubt they'd be much cheaper than the 'coupe' now..

Quick look at Japan’s goo-net says £20k+ for 4-door ITR’s… jeez

Yeah, they were giving this sort of thing away here a few years ago. Not anymore, sadly...

To wrap a weekend of some great motorsport, here's a bumper haul of photos from a couple of months ago back in May. As usual, I try my best to post different stuff from previous posts, but there might be the odd crossover. Hopefully there's something to tickle your fancy... Enjoy!

Yep, that's the best I could come up with too. I think I'd admit defeat and go with an FD2 at that sort of money!
