Trip to London - Pics inside

[athorby]

Hey guys,

Went to London last weekend to have a nose about and came across a large mix of motors, from F1 cars to Phantoms and much more, as you would expect! I'm sure you will all recognise some of the locations. I have posted this in general gassing too but due to the Italian flavour I assumed it would suit this forum.

So I thought I would share a few of my pics...Hope you enjoy!






























































Thanks for looking and to those who suggested a visit to some of these places,

Adam

What did you guys think of the yellow 360 at Joe Macari? One of the engineers started up and it sounded very raw. It had a larini exhaust which was very throaty and the owner had modded it considerably. I have a short vid which i'll post tomorrow.

Freewheeler,
It was indeed Cars International. It's an 'alladins cave' for motorcars and recommend it!! It is located in a mews off Old Brompton Road past Lambo London. I had an appoint to meet Jonathan Kaiser the sales manager but as held up on the tube so it was shut by the time I got there. Still, it's only a small showroom but is packed with sheer class. The F430 coffee table was wicked, it was getting plenty of attention by customers.

Jonny5,
Thanks for the heads up for HR Owen North Acton, it was well worth it! Cheers

Urraco250s,
No probs, glad you enjoyed them as much as I did. I enjoyed your recent pics of your trip to LL. I have several vids which you will enjoy. I'll post tomorrow.

Cheers

The yellow 360 has had a massive amount of money spent on it (Michelotto, I believe) and when I last saw it, back in the summer, was absolutely perfect!! The original owner also owned the delivery miles CGT (black with white wheels) recently sold by Romans!

The guy with the Black CGT with white wheels is selling the car Paul . Do you know if it's a UK car Paul?

[Freewheeler]

IIRC, it's a U.S. car, went back to the factory to be 'Europeanised' was then delivered to Reading with a couple of miles and never collected! It was having an alarm fitted at the OPC the last time I was there!! Why's the owner selling Jon?

Yes indeed Traxx. I knew straight away it was yours, first time i've seen it in the flesh and it stuck out amongst the numerous lambos and ferraris parked up. Truly stunning!

I agree, it looked amazing in the flesh and the sound was spine tingling!! On par with a CGT I think,I'll post the vid in the morning. He certainly has good taste in cars, I bet the CGT is equally stunning. I liked the GT look of the car and the mods have certainly made the car perfect! The front bumper looked like the one on the 360GT for sale in Cars International below:

Top pics!

[RallyRider]

Great stuff there, looks like a good way to spend the day

Really must do something like that some time, did it take long to travel round all the places?

[pastrana72]

Fantastic pictures, a very worthwhile trip.

Stunning yellow 360cs, like Joe's audi RS6 (?),

Nice one, Welldone.

Ah, fame at last. I'm the one leaning into the black LP640.

Good pics Adam, you should have tried to get into the HR service centre - as they are the Veyron importer they usually have one inside (along with a few F40s, if my last visit was anything to go by).
