on the way to my house a friend swears blind he saw a 250 GTO, in red parked up. This is in Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk. Just wondered if it was anyone's here or if anyone knew if there was a replica in this area, apparently it looked the real deal, so I'm assuming it was a fairly expensive job.

On a side note, does anyone know if any real ones are actually registered on UK roads?

ETA: in my haste I forgot to put a title, could a mod please put it as "Spotted:250 GTO" or similar?

He doesn't live around the Cambridge area does he? I think he used to when Pink Floyd first started out, if he does, it's possible it was his I suppose.

There are a few "63 GTO" and "250 GTO" are both road registered.
Can't remember which one Mason's is though!

It oculd have been this one, looks and sounds excellent. Apparently a very expensive replica, but one none the less smile

Apparently it was plain red, no white circles on it.

Theres either a very very good replica or a real one in the Midlands not far from me... seen it twice now, but its on the grounds of a rather large house and you have to look over a hedge to spot it if it is even there... I could just about see it from my car once, so I had to stop and have a look, every time I pass the grounds I take a peek, but its only been on the visible part of the drive twice.

Im very jealous. smile
