Yes, I was collecting at Porsche and AM.
The 575 was at the service centre.

Superamerica? Or was there another with big flying buttresses?


Also, is that a 3dr Ed30 GTi in the background?

Yep, SuperAmerica. Much prettier than all the modern stuff that was about.

I don't think was a ED30, just a GTI.

There was a red 250 Lusso behind the showroom glass, away from camera phone focus.

Agreed on the SuperAmerica. Completely impractical roof, but got a soft spot for them.

LOOKS like an Ed30 - body-colour lower rear bumper and BBS wheels...but that could have been copied by now...

Now the Lusso...trumps everything else for a page or two at least. Shame on you! wink

There was a GT3 and 2 peasant-class Ferraris with it too.

They have some sort of virtual windscreen apparently (if you're going fast enough!). Not that I'd stray too far from home in Cheshire during the winter with £2M's worth of screen-less, roofless Ferrari!

Every day a journey

I don't think it is an Ed30 - rear lights were slightly tinted on the Ed30/R32 in the Mk5. Also, the wheels are from the GT Sport variant. wink

Ha! I promise I'm not that sad, I just always wanted an Ed30 when I was a yute.

Retro LHD spaceship spotted in the morning traffic, not seen a Testarossa for a long time. Sounded amazing.

Good spot. Early single wing mirror model.
I remember following one into the Goodwood Festival of Speed a few years ago. It alleviated the boredom of the hot stop-start traffic. I don’t think the Testarossa driver was enjoying the experience though.

Brightened up an otherwise boring trip to the bike shop! Especially odd with the one mirror reaching out lop-sided. Looks so out of place amongst the traffic, in a good way of course. Can't imagine them being that fun to drive slowly, but he gave us a few noises to keep himself (and us) entertained biggrin

Was working today, I'm a transporter driver so was in the centre to collect a Sprinter van, which ended up being in Morecambe.......

Do you like it there?

I don't go actively spotting, but if I always take pics of interesting bits I see when I'm about.
