Show Us Your Motors!

Very dirty Boxster at The Motorist the other weekend. I do need to sell this car, I just don't want to.

The Cupra was filthy, and it had white stuff around the tyres where they had fitted the new Continental Sport Contact 7’s. I also used my underbody roller pressure washer attachment too. I’ll do the Kia tomorrow!

It’s a MY24 310PS but with an ABT tune taking it to 370PS from the factory. 7 Speed DSG. It’s a VZN, so the flagship whereby the only optional extra was this colour. Mountain Green I think it’s called. Sometimes it looks grey. This colour was only available on the VZN. I believe there’s only 25 in the UK.

I love the Cupra's... My kind of size car aswell, They really stand out in traffic
 
Won this today, Sti Spec C. Not my top choice of colour but in very good condition.

Took a few months of bidding, missed a couple of others. Happy with this as it appears to be in without spoiler and OEM wheels as it came.

Not many come up in good condition like this so bid high but got it for a good price in the end.

Quite a few extras on the Spec C over the standard JDM STi, better turbo, mechanical LSD, water spray, bit lighter and some other bits.

I'll update on progress, I should get a video and loads of high res pics soon

It’s a new super car owning experience why wouldn’t he be excited about a new season? Luton fans were last year that was for sure.

What an odd think to say. On a positive light we need more picture of the 570 :cool:

It was a lighthearted comment alluding to the fact that a car like that can and should be enjoyed year round.

What an odd thing to say in response to what I said. ;)

I said goodbye to my VXR8 a few weeks ago. It was a great car but it got to the point where I was worried more about preserving mileage and condition to retain some value in the car, rather than taking it out and enjoying it.

Wasn't 100% sure what I wanted to replace it with but still wanted to stick with 8 cylinders if I could. Picked this up yesterday :D

Yes and no. Pleased to say I have been able to own one but so far I haven't had that "oh no, what did I do" feeling! Had some good times with it though, not sure it's easy to own a car now that people look at and say "what is that?" :cool:

 
Went stargazing in Northumberland at the Observatory but drove up through Yorkshire Dales, North Pennines and into Northumberland yesterday and had all the roads totally to ourselves.

The handling and chassis of the Cayman R is incredible but it’s the sensations that simply make it one of the very best sports cars ever.

It’s able to handle the undulating roads been lightweight, it gives so much sensations of feel around your hips been mid engine and bustling with feel and the hydraulic steering is the icing on top. Have to say it just shows up modern stuff when it comes to fun factor. Yeah newer stuff might be quicker but damn are so vague and numb to drive in comparison, even newer Porsches don’t come close, for instance it crushes my 991 GT3 for feel and sensation, even more so at legal speed limits. In the GT3 I had to be very naughty to enjoy and then it was more about just going fast for thrills rather than feeling handling dynamics and sensation of feel from an epic chassis.

Couple of pictures:

Epic car and absolutely a future classic and suspect values will remain stable or moving up now but doubt we will ever sell we did consider a GT4 but feel the R is better and more fun road car. :)
