Theres one of them that drives around where i live.

Saw a pristine Series I canvas today in convoy with a few tatty Series II Landies.

Also saw an Audi A8L and a superb XK8. No pictures as I was carrying girly-shopping and being dragged along at speed :grumpy:
 
Why wouldn't they be a good spot? Really anything outside the ordinary is a good spot for me.

Tonight a buddy of mine wanted to go car spotting so I thought I would let him shot the camera and I would focus on driving. He can't work a camera for beans but we saw some pretty awesome things. This is going to be a huge post so bear with it.

Bentley Conti GT's (x4), this picture alone shows how damn common they are now. It's sad really, a Bentley used to be quite a spot but now it's like seeing an S-Class. I think it's time to put a done stamp on these.

Baller G-Wagon, seriously I should hate this thing but even with wagon wheels on it I love it and want it.

Lotus Elise, such and awesome car and I just love the tires.

FINALLY! After months and months of hunting for it I finally found the Fiat 500 that stalks this area. It's the American Moglet-mobile.

I have never seen a Cosica hatchback before, are they rare or something? Or are they just so boring I miss it?

Joey, the Corsica Hatchback was only made between 89-91. Nice pics though, I wonder if the owner of the 500 is kicking himself for having it imported.
 
Thanks for the comments.

The 500 was probably on M plates and belongs to a magazine or something.

Agreed, they are everywhere around here...here's a good example from a few weeks ago. You should probably stamp that 911 Turbo too while you're at it.

They are still rare in this area but if I see a bunch of them this summer they'll get stamped.
 
are they really a good spot though? sure a good vehicle but its a common workhorse!

Given that it's a very rare spot for me and yet I see probably four or five Bentley Conti GTs every day, it's much more interesting for me than things like the Bentley and therefore more worthy of inclusion in the thread. I leave the Astons and Bentleys for other people to post because I see plenty and they don't really interest me any more (unless it's very rare like the DB7 Zagato I posted a page or so back).
 
Driving home from work in the work van when I saw a flash of orange in a driveway. Shot home, grabbed my camera, and drove back rather swiftly - if it had gone in the meantime it wouldn't be the first time. My dream car as a kid:

Damn, you got the back ones pretty good.

I believe it's an AC Ace actually.

I believe you are right.

Ferrari Testarossa, pretty awesome I saw two in the past 24hours.

Audi S8

New Evo, they don't seem to be very popular around here. More people seem to buy the STI.
IMG_6645.jpg


Aston V8, this is very close to being black listed as they are becoming to common around here.

Andrew- I think I saw the yellow Gallardo rental you were seeing at Lenox for a while. No good pics, because I saw this approaching whilst I was filming the G:
SN855210.jpg

My 1st Murci!!!!
Also a Ford GTX1, but no good pic of that either. This was at Dream ride for kids event. Apparantley the police convoy left the cruise at the highway and it got a little wild. A Porsche GT2 hit a 430 :scared: Just a fender bender and I don't know if it was actually on the highway. Rest of the pics:
