My street is full of P'headers

[option click]

Looking out onto my close yesterday, I could see the following cars:

Audi S3 (x2)
Audi RS6
BMW M Coupe
BMW M3
BMW Z4
Subaru Impreza RB5
Subaru Impreza WRX STI
VW Golf GTI mkIV 1.8 Turbo
Lotus Elise S1

and only a couple of people carriers/shopping trolleys.

So, how PH is your street?

[lightningghost]

Nothing spectacular normally, but occasionally we get a DB9 and 2 days ago we had a Ferrari 456.

[love machine]

The village is full of numpties in silver/gold Rovers and Hondas. I'm pretty much the only petrolhead, they also resent my/mates cars/oil slicks/loud 'zorsts/etc

[targarama]

Reasonably petrolheadesque for sure.

We have (in 6 houses):
911
X5
Pork Cayenne
Mini Convetible
Lexus LS Saloon
A few Mercs
Merc 450 convertible (the old Hart to Hart stylee one)
Real Landie with a plate something like L8ANDY
TVR T350
Audi TT
Audi A6

I was thinking the other day, there isn't one diseasal in our street apart from the real Landie.

3x E46 M3
DB9
SL500
VX220T
986
986 S
996 C4
996 Targa
Elise
XKR

Mostly parked on the street, or in the driveway.

And a few older, but still fairly rapid, cars (like Scoobies, a Fiat Coupe and a VR6).

One obligatory Black Range Rover,
a Daihatsu 4x4, a rotting Fiat X19, BMW M3 lookalike, Moggy 1000, Hyundai Accent Coupe, Porsche 924, a few Euroboxes and a visiting pony and trap. Such is rural Cornish life.

[UKBob]

A boxter, some kind of medieval (petrol powered I assume) car, nothing else worth mentioning.

[john75]

Iszu Trooper, Jeep things and Range Rovers mostly

Let me see theres a micra? 2 down from me..



Theres a bunch of BMWs dotted around, round the corner are some rare corvettes..

Thats about as good as it gets unless you go futher up the road and it seems to get more better..

[wolves_wanderer]

There are 2 or 3 superbikes in my road. There is only 1 interesting car, a seriously tricked-up Supra, called Lucifer apparently, it certainly sounds like him

[Adom]

...looks like a Yaris to me.

Is it me or has the owner serioulsy kerbed that front rim?

Edited to add: I see the tyre is flat now so they obviously had some kind of incident.

You know your a PHer when you can name every car in your street from memory

The only thing interesting around here is a Maser 4200GT, though there is an M3 CSL and TVR Sagaris not too far away. There is a Boxster 2.7 (yawn) and a 996 targa AUTO (definately not a PH) and plenty of Foci, Astra, Rover people carrier yawnfests.

We live round the corner from the Cromwell Hospital which treats a large number of middle eastern visitors and there is a serviced apartment block nearby almost exclusively used by relatives of patients at the hospital. There is a regular stream of cream of the crop Ferraris, Lambos and Mercs arriving outside this block, topped off last week by a very nice Enzo!

[pesty]

an old white and rust Volvo

rusty mark 4 escort

206

2 vectras old shape

and an MX5

thats all in my close.

nope not petrol heads and they dont even reply to me when I say hello wierd lot around here in Telford

[v15ben]

250 houses and absolutely diddly squat - bugger all except one guy who has a very nice Astra GSI!

I need a new street!

[NiceCupOfTea]

I live on a long road, the odd interesting car: Bentley Continental R, Used to be an Evo ?? Tommi Makinen Edition, 645 parked down the road currently.

My block of flats is a motley collection of clapped out badly cared for crap : Rover 214, Rover 618 auto, 206cc, Seat Ibiza, Fiasco x2, etc, yawn. Occasionally an M3 or a Cooper S though (friends of Ibiza bloke). Used to be a woman with a Golf Mk.2 GTi 16v

[rude girl]

2 or 3 classic MGs, a fancy bike, 2 neighbours who each have 3 or 4 old Minis (and a Mini Moke), a Morgan, and old Landy. Nice chap with a Boxster visits one neighbour, and someone with a kit car visits another.

Neighbours are all really nice about the cars, let me use their drives if we have a lot of visitors, and never had a complaint about noise. Saying that, we're really careful about keeping it to a minimum until we get away from the houses, specially early mornings or after dark.

[rooster]

we have a sprinkling of mercs, beemers and range rovers in thge street but we are the only PHers on our estate ( you don't count the chavs do you?) we have three cars and 4 bikes between 2 of us!(soon to be 5 bikes if I pass my test)

[remal]

I think i live on the wrong street. I only got, Astra's, escorts, Fiesta, primera, Almera etc..

The only good car is a Mk1 Gold in mint condition.
