Yup many times. Read the Porsche GT threads.

Whilst the GT2 RS admittedly has a few faults it overall is an awesome package which in many ways is hard to beat.

I speak as someone who has owned lived with biggrin: and driven one extensively as opposed to a forum armchair expert btw lol.
You talk such bks Walter. How long did you ‘own’ your GT2 RS for? And any danger of a photo? You be been called out on this before and almost six months later still no photo or registration.
Hi the ultimate armchair expert. biggrin:

Still sniffing the melting glue from your prehistoric TVR chariots then. rofl

How you manage to carry that big fat greasy chip on your shoulder really is anyones guess.

A few things around Edinburgh at the weekend



1922 Rolls Royce



I know the owner/ driver - nice guy - only in his 30's and that car gets driven frequently!
It's a stunning car and great to see a younger generation (god i feel old saying that - I'm only 44) enjoying that era.
Out of interest do you know if the owner has an eclectic line up of other cars?

1979 Range Rover



that’s a local car/ daily driver, well at least it lives on the road and I see it moving location very regularly into different permit parking bays (i live 2 streets away)

Lovely thing, yes I spotted it twice over 2 days, enjoying the sun. Fitted into the environment very well, very polar opposite to hypercars at Harrods.

A quick Google of the reg earlier revealed some more pictures of it around the city. What a lovely daily!

Is that the Cygnet which recently sold on Collecting Cars? If so, it might be on the way to it’s new owner.

Sublime to the ridiculous.

I sort of understand the thinking behind the Cygnet but I don't think it does much for the brand. It would be like having Lambo badged Kias nipping about.

The Cygnet is a curious thing
Makes one man weep
Makes another man sing

Aren't they just a Toyota IQ underneath with Aston doing the fancy interior and rear lights.

It is just an IQ. I saw one years ago at Aston Martin - Wilmslow one lunchtime at work.

I wondered that and checked the plates, it’s a different car.

No, it's more of a family heirloom, he does work in the 'high end' car industry though

It would seem that the custard test is required.
