Alfa V6 on LPG by the looks of it. Good idea.

In our car park I often see the following:

Jag E Type
TVR Tamora
TVR Chimaera
370Z Roadster
Ford Escort Mk1 RS 1600 rally car
Stripped and highly tuned Ford Anglia
Ford Mustang
Lotus Exige
Skyline R33 GTR
A number of Caterfields

I'm sure there are other interesting cars but I can't be bothered to remember them all.

ETA: There's a 90's Alpine of some description as well. Don't see many of those about!

I imagine at PH Towers, there's always interesting metal in the car park!

We get the occasional 458, California, GT-R, R8; there's always a Europa, but the for the most part it's euro-boxes.

My workplace is the dullest of the dull, awful. Amongst the grey 1.6 Golfs and diesel Peugeots, the most interesting things you'll see are a solitary MX-5, a Corsa VXR and my Panda 100HP.

Pathetic.

Most of the sales guys are obsessed with BMWs and Audis.

There is a 4 door M3 and an S5 (Jesus, that's a BIG car! redface).

There's a rather nice 90s Alfa GTV, a couple of RX8s (we had 5 at one point), a Porsche Boxster, 911 Carrera 4 and a new Turbo, too.

Nothing really unusual though.

OK, so not a 'typical' day at work but a few shots from annual 'bring your car to work day', many of which, + a few others, will appear given any sunny Friday.



















And my personal favourite (apart from mine of course - bizarrely not in the pictures)
