If it weren't for the private plate I'd wonder if it was around for comparison purposes at Bentley.

Does this count? AMG S63, I don't recall seeing this shape in the flesh before now but, as with BMWs, I am not in touch with what counts as special.

Yes it does count, not seen one in the wild yet - good spot biggrin

Two cars I don't like

One77 and i8. No photo of the One77 though I was driving and it was dark. Had the rear lights though and I don't think any other Aston has them.

This was in mumbles , Swansea
You don't like the one-77!?!? Why?
The One-77 is an ugly son of a bh. Beautiful engine, but I don't like the rest of it.
Did a double take then and thought I'd already replied. Cheers smile

Todays spots again still driving so no photos - Blue R33 skyline and yellow/orange TVR Tamora - not exactly that rare but still nice spots. Guards red 1989 930 slant nose though, that was a nice car to follow this afternoon biggrin

It was absolutely fabulous in the flesh and is as fast as it looks. Beautiful. I wasnt however over enamoured with the owners other Maclaren P1 if honest, it did nothing for me. His 3rd and final car was pretty, the Porsche 918 spyder but he'd gone for horrid fluro green caliper paint. Tough choices i bet each morning!

all three are beautiful in the flesh, and I believe the calipers are green by standard on the 918 (and the other hybrid Porsches)..I think they look fantastic through those wheels

There is a YouTube video showing him collecting the cars. Seems like a guy who appreciates the cars, rather than just collecting rich nan's toys.

Contera MD1:


Spotted in Rugeley, Staffs.

Seems, to me, to be a sort-of ginetta-type deal?

Between J13 and J19 on the M25 today, I saw an F50, an F40, a 599 GTO, an MP4-12C and this...

Can you see it?
