@almoststew1990 that's indeed a Crown, more than likely LPG converted as it's a Hong Kong inner city taxi (new territory ones are a horrible green)

Where did you spot it?

It was at Ryde, on the Isle of Wight!

It's a Maserati. Ferrari running costs for crap build quality and 911 performance at most. Horrible things, how that company is still going is beyond me.

Heavens! I don't know if you've been in later models but they are built really nicely and the leather is more supple and higher quality than anything BMW have in their showrooms. Also, that 4.7 V8 sounds absolutely amazing. Arguably the nicest V8 sound and the exhaust doesn't fart and crackle 24/7 like on /some/cars these days

Check Doug Demuro's review of the Ghibli, it's horrific

Ghibli yeah, we're on about the Granturismo. Also imo the Ghibli looks naff, too softly styled, but girly tbh.

They're all crap. All the way from the old BiTurbo up until the current crop, they're overpriced, unreliable, asspensiff AF to run cars which are ticking the second you fire them up. And when they go, you're in for a world of pain.

Fiesta “R” ? :cool:

Rilot · 30 Apr 2019 at 15:43

It's a Fiestar

theone8181 · 30 Apr 2019 at 20:09

Is that an R from an f type? I'm also trying to work out if the plate should mean something.

Akagi · 30 Apr 2019 at 20:58

Its definitely an R from some Jaguar or other.
And no I think thats just a normal numberplate.

Nasher · 30 Apr 2019 at 21:00

Not really any worse than the fake "AMG" and "M" cars you can buy from a dealer now

Probably an F type somewhere in Birmingham that’s had its badge chiselled off (I was on the Brum ring road)

Had to think what that is.

Bloat.

Every time I see an image of that I think it's a bad photoshop. I'm always disappointed to remember that I'm seeing reality.

Nasher · 4 May 2019 at 21:08

That grille needs to be about 50% smaller

pinkpound · 4 May 2019 at 21:55

Nasher · 4 May 2019 at 22:08

Is that a Supra spoiler? lol

Maybe they just wanted to add some unnessessary drag and wind noise.

IAmATeaf · 4 May 2019 at 22:15

Maybe from a WRX?

Yeah, looks like some cheap mod someone slapped onto a non BMW...
