I don't know where that X1/9 post came from but it prompted me to read up about the Dallara Icsunonove

Were the Bertone cars limited supply or just limited by demand ?

AFAIK demand was limited towards the end, particularly in the UK.

Gutted as was driving but just saw a a white Lamborghini Miura driving into Wilmslow.

Never seen one before and they’re absolutely breathtaking.

Not that I've seen many - but certainly never a white one!


ETA: Rod Stewart's was white

You can hear it towards the end of True Blue on Rod Stewart's album Never A Dull Moment.

Daddy says he'll buy me a car
To drive just as far as I need
He wants me back at any expense
He's got a lot more money than sense

Its owned by a fairly prolific car collector around Cheshire, few cars including a 991 Speedster and this 512BBi

Is that the 'valve' guy? I recognise that 512BBi and the pub.

It could be but not entirely sure, the picture was taken at the Swettenham Arms, he normally appears in one of his cars at their meets

Interesting! must be some collection between the two of these locally then, it was the pub that made me wonder if it was Valve guy, plus the cars you mention wouldn't be out of place in his collection too (if he doesn't already have one of each of them).

I'll have to keep an eye out for those meets and go to one, gorgeous 512BBi too but that Miura was truly special, it took me a minute to realise what i'd just seen.

Saw a silver Carrera GT amble past my house on Sunday. No photo I'm afraid.

The Valve guy sounds like the chap I used to chat to. He had a DB4 GT Zagato a long time ago. Hopefully he still has. Lovely chap who showed me zero snobbery despite me being in a Westfield and him in a twin supercharged Aston.

I spotted this Aston Vantage GT8 on Sunday and had a good chat with the owner.
