That's because they were and the lambo was at work in coventry...think it was one of the managers or a director.

Skyline I think is owned by a Asian chap in Bradford. Seen it around. Saw the Van in Leeds.

Saw this at Morrisons.....no idea what it is.

Excuae the picture quality they were taken on my HTC Desire.

Saw a Skyline like that in Atherton yesterday. Also saw on old Camaro, but I didn't get a good look at it.

Picture #10... is that liquorice all sorts?

Yep. there were 2 types of people taking part. Those doing it for a laugh with comedy racers, and those who take it seriously and have spent a lot of money and time on their racer and got sponsorship from both local and national businesses.

Went to Harrods yesterday for Pizza, and saw a few nice cars around the area. I missed a McLaren Mercedes SLR convertible unfortunately, it was driving past and my phone threw a fit and the camera wouldn't start up.

Some large Ferrari with gold window tints - useful in Dubai I'd imagine.

A white Porsche, of some flavour...

A Maybach Zeppelin! €406k worth of luxury goodness, with some annoyed rich people sitting inside watching me take photos of them.

I also saw a V12 plate today, fairly sure the S500 is a v8 though... :confused:

Fr0dders · 18 Sep 2010 at 22:26

it is

the S600 is the V12 lol.

G-MAN2004 · 18 Sep 2010 at 23:00

He might have had a V12 before the Merc?

I actually think from the front/side that looks quite good. It's just the rear that lets it down.

S500 AMG, nice...

Saving the plate for his next car...

Something doesn't look right about that Ferrari, I think it's the wheels, or white just doesn't suit that model.

Exactly what I thought. Escpecially the rear wheels, there's something a bit odd looking about them there.

It's an XK not an XJ and it'll be a V8, the XK never had a V12 engine in it, just a 4.0 V8 N/A and a 4.0 V8 supercharged, then from 2003 onwards they had the AJ34/S V8s, a 4.2 V8 N/A and a 4.2 V8 Supercharged. This shape ran from 1996-2006.

This particular ruined and hideous example of a once beautiful car does have the XKR vented bonnet, but that's not saying much looking at it, could be anything. It probably is an R though because buying a new bonnet for it would be pretty damn expensive.

Noticed this little beastie by the Dartford Toll on the M25 the other morning....

Possibly a kit car, possibly an RS200 - it sounded the part!

Jokester · 19 Sep 2010 at 17:01

Spotted this today:-

Given the number plate, I'm guessing it's the same guy that owned this one:-
