Lazy spotters thread

A quick phone dump. There are many cars down here that are basically here forever, or until the 'management' put in wider gates. My car has 1cm gap either side of folded in wing mirrors, and there is an irate Kuwaiti Prince a few apartments down the corridor from me that cannot get his Nissan Skyline out. The gates, incidentally, we're replaced earlier this year. Most of the inhabitants of this building are either rich Arabs who visit a few times a year, or the super super rich (Chinese Students). Imagine the frustration of parking your Turbo R up, heading back to Abu Dhabi for a few months, then returning to find an imprisoned car! There is some decent chod parked amongst the hypercars - I am waiting to catch the rusty Terrano and it's 348 stradale neighbour together. Also, a Maestro D next to a matt black 911. I bet the Maestro has a richer owner such is the eccentricity around here

Bloke in the Visa won't have that Serck plate for long driving like that...

[The Moog]

Our Qatari students ship their range rovers over for the college year. Always parked anywhere, ignore parking tickets.

My AA mate sometimes sends me pics of stuff he comes across on his brakedown travels.

 

Here's today's tat.

 

He thinks they belong to the same owner as the quality of wobwork is the same on both cars!

Cant take credit for this, my brother was in Amsterdam at the weekend and sent me this picture.

Old E150( ? ) on military plates and driven by a couple of Septic looking haircuts. But why the colour? Looked like it should have been blue.

A Biturbo in its natural habitat- dumped in the corner of a yard.

I've now seen MGGS abominations 3 times in the past week (and definetly at least 2 different ones as the other was predominatly black).

 

Based on the fact that is more spottage than I've ever achieved with the MG6, MG absolutely must be on to a winner with this one.

All this 90's japanese goodness was found in the same garage yard in Crockenhill and all are Mot'd.

Especially loved the white Sunny with multi leaf cart springs fitted on a 1990 car.

This was outside the Jaguar Emporium in Sevenoaks the interior was all led lights and fighter jet style steering wheel.

Really not sure what to make of these Kitt / Knightrider things,to me it's a waste of a Poniac Firebird.

Old giffers 4up in this endangered species this morning.

Amsterdam is full of old cars, probably one of the easiest places/cities to spot nice old chod all in such close proximity from Austin 1800's to Kadetts to Visa's.

Maestro Van on the Twirlywoo's! I hope this all subconsciously sinks into the lad!

 

 

 

[NorfolkNWeigh]

This Legend is legendary , it had some nasty Halfords type rimz and chrome arches a-la Lagos style w123.

 

Pure Class, this stood out like a beacon amongst the Range Rovers and 911s in the posh parking bit of Terminal 5

[mercrocker]

Nothing says "I am quite rich actually, I just do not give a hoof..." better than a square-rigged Bristol.   Marvellous.

[Joey spud]

Nothing says welcome to the Medway towns more than a smilely Transit advertising some top quality merhandise.

 

Old giffer owned Moggy pick up from the local Marina with brilliant home made hard top.

 

Anyone know what these hybrid things are in Dartford ?

 

Edit,they are BYD e6 Hybrid taxi's originating from China so very grim then and thankfully only 20 made it over here.

Pulled up behind this earlier. Whizzed up the bus lane inside it after we pulled away from the lights and it looked in really good nick as well.

Scrummy. Very good condition too.

Took the dog for a walk round the block in South East London yesterday before lunch and spotted these.

 

 

Tidy looking Laurel, needed the tow ball to be refitted to the tow bar.

 

 

Just off the rank

 

 

The lesser spotted urban Land Rover

 

 

One for the shite Ice cream thread.

 

 

Late registration madness 2006 Rover 75

 

 

The most miserable camper van I can imagine.

Some class parked outside tonight. Probably more 'exclusive' than the normal Overfinches that usually frequent this spot.

Someone has been Avan a good time

2002 Renault Avantime Privilege V6 by Adam Floyd, on Flickr

 

First time I've really looked at an Avantime up close, they're really bizarre things.

[Joey spud]

Near Dartford.

 

 

 

BKP121Y off the road since 2007 it has a ''5 SPEED'' badge on its rump something i've not seen on a 99 before.

 

 

The spendid Spitfire and Hurricane Gate Gaurdians outside St Georges Chapel Biggin Hill.

[EssDeeWon]

I am always interested to hear the stories behind cars like that Saab 99.
