NorfolkNWeigh Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Now, Berlin Taxi beige is not an unusual colour for W124s, but on a coupe? And those Autoshite racing stripes... 11001010, MorrisItalSLX, Schaefft and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zelandeth Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 One for tho single and sads.Want to pull hot Polish girls? Can't afford a pimped CLS or Cayenne?Step this wayimage.jpegThat colour really suits that I think. Spotted here a couple of days back...have noticed lately that this generation of Civic is starting to get to be a rare sight. Remember having a loan of one of these a few years back and that while it was utterly uninspiring to look at or sit in, was an absolute hoot to drive. Not sure if the fact that the engine didn't deliver any meaningful power anywhere on the.lower half of the rev counter might have become wearing in a daily driver though... Then there's this thing. I've spotted it a few times but never had the opportunity to snap a photo of it. They say a picture paints a thousand words... In this case I reckon 999 of those words should never have been spoken.

jumpingjehovahs Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 A number of good* spots today: Love the colour on this RR although strangely it had a black drivers door with an orange handle, despite being registered as grey? Nevertheless, good to see one in a colour, especially a full fat TDV8 Long Wheelbase. This was a peach of a thing, easily handled the M1/M25 traffic this morning. Grandad with his trendy Grandson, who only wears really expensive trainers. Banana Custard looking fabulous in a grey, drizzly, miserable, Woking this afternoon.

Zelandeth Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 That's a rare one!Just seems a rare occurrence that you see a 205 these days, never mind a cabriolet. Don't recall them ever being all that common a spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drivewaymyway Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 I went passed a white Rover 416 estate on the M3 yesterday. Couldn't get a pic I was driving.. It was mint and the driver looked like he loved the car more than life itself though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amishtat Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Have a dreadful picture of a lovely Granada. There was a guy walking towards me on the pavement who saw me take the picture and looked at me like I was a mental. Still, hey ho.

Pieman Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 No photos I'm afraid, but last night I spotted a very smart-looking N13 Sunny hatchback outside Hanson's auction premises near Derby, and today I spotted a nice Mk3 Disastra with what appeared to be a Christmas tree made from wire and tinsel stuck to the top of it.

Thing went like a bloody rocket (which I was not expecting given they're usually seen doing about 30) thanks to seemingly endless reserves of torque. It would also spin the rear wheels up in any gear due to the Chinese Death Rings that were fitted...nothing like unexpectedly finding yourself drifting around the roundabout right outside the police station...

Zelandeth Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Points for most technologically different cars possible in the same frame? Seeing Teslas out and about very much hasn't got old for me yet, and owning one is very much on my list. While I'd go for an S by choice on styling terms, I've sat in an X, and the sheer amount of space in one would make it a tough call. Granted, the arrival of the Model 3 may well shake things up too once I get a look at one... mitsisigma01, NorfolkNWeigh, LightBulbFun and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
