Who knows how I blurred it so horribly, but you get the idea...

I guess business at the gym is going pretty well.

No picture, but a pillock in a blue Ferrari with '1 OMG' tried to run me over earlier as he was so desperate to get into the petrol station.

Was it a purple-ish F430? I had that behind me in Nottingham, I'm pretty sure that was the plate.

Yup, was a F430, could quite easily have been purple, it was dark. I was in Crewe at the time... so he must get around!

yeh a mate said there were less than 40 in the country, not sure how true that is. Yeh, very wide indeed. sounded nice just idling along.

Oddly enough there was one sporting the exact same colour scheme in my Village on Saturday afternoon getting lots of attention. If its the same one its been travelling as I'm in Lancashire.

I've also seen a white with with blue stripes which I thought I could keep up with in my CTR... yeah right! Saw it for a few seconds then gone...

Obviously GT's are common as muck as I saw a white one with blue stripes in London on Sunday!

The reflection on that paintwork in the garage is amazing. I so want paintwork like that.

Maybe its the same ones driving up and down.

Some douchebag parked across about 3 disabled spaces (1 full one and a bit either side).

There are only 80 in the UK.

BTW the other day I saw so many porsche's, It wasn't like a club or anything it was just that I saw more of them then mondeo's

It's the Golf GTI Pirelli Edition. Quite rare but a lovely car!

I just spent ages trawling back through the thread looking for a sweet Mk1! But get it now, not as exciting!

Vonsteve · 19 Oct 2010 at 15:26

I missed this unfortunately but a friend took a picture! Was getting a lot of attention!

Moeks · 19 Oct 2010 at 15:51

That Zonda looks tiny, maybe it's just the way the photo was taken, the angle etc ...but I always imagined it to be much larger than that. I'm sure I must have seen one myself at some point, I have been to a lot of motor shows over the years after all ...I just can't remember though.

mrk · 19 Oct 2010 at 16:04

Zondas are not tiny lol! they're big in person!

Zonda F (number 3 of 25) spot from a while back:

ZOMG Zonda left hanging off worlds crappest jack? Thats not right!

Dup · 19 Oct 2010 at 16:23

Looking at he number plate, that jack looks rather small. Not the the type of jack you expect to be stuck under a Zonda without any other support.

mrk · 19 Oct 2010 at 16:29

It's not like the Zonda is meaty in weight, it's only 1230KG. That's less than my E46 (which is smaller!)

That's about as heavy as a Civic Type-R and I still wouldn't use a jack like that. No doubt it's probably fine, but it's just not the sort of car you take that kind of risk with. If I was the owner I'd see those tiny castors and fear for my car. Then again my usual tyre fitters had my CTR up on some hefty trolley jacks all 4 in the air and I still didn't like to watch.
