Are those...GT500 stickers on a 5.0 Mustang? :lol: Anyways, Mustang in the UK, so good spot IMO. :)
 
That's an awful thing to do to a Mustang. I've seen worse around where I live, though. :scared:
 
Awesome. I have yet to see a Fisker. :( I'm guessing it's pizza you deliver? That would be a perfect job for me if it didn't involve me paying for 18mpg when driving all day.

Also, that strip mall looks freakishly similar to a strip mall near where I live. I shop at the DXL a lot and the same stores are around it. Only difference is a Chinese grocery store directly to the left where that empty room is.
 
It's actually a $$ full service Italian sit down restaurant, that also has take out and delivery. Nice place. This is the nicest car I've yet seen there, though. And my Lady only gets 18-19mpg, but I don't mind. First time I've owned a car I felt like washing... every time I see salt on it. But I'm happy to drive it. Had a 40 something South Asian/Indian fellow come up to me yesterday with a big grin. "Oh, how many miles?" "I had one of these!"

And yeah, the Chinese grocery store is around the corner! :lol:
 


Any idea what the red hatchback is? I think it was a Ford but I couldn't tell. I tried to get a better pic but was going 35 on a snowy highway and my exit was coming up so I didn't take the risk.
 
Think your probably right I think the only other comparable car is a 1st gen Escort but I think its bigger than the hatchback in the picture. Didn't have time to try and zoom in while I was trying to take the pic and focus on the road.
 
Okay, maybe I'll go back to the guy's house and ask to take a photo, because I think it would be fun. But didn't have time tonight, nasty weather and busy on top of that with deliveries. Saw accidents happen in front of my eyes, and some pretty serious carnage on the roadside here and there.

But early, before it got too bad, I'm sent to a new spot in a decent neck of the woods. I notice a Lincoln Blackwood in the drive, don't see many of those. Thought of taking a photo, but busy... and possibly weird without taking to the people first, since I'm on a delivery. Instead of coming out the door, guy opens the garage, where I notice a nicely restored early 70's Chevy pickup. So I comment to him about the Blackwood and the old pickup, and yeah, I like cars too, obviously, since I drive a 1986 300zx, so I appreciate that what he has is interesting. Then he points around the corner that I can't see into, the 2nd bay of the garage. 1979 cherry red 930 with great black wheels... awesome condition... so I say hey, I haven't seen that out before. He says nope, it mostly stays at home. Kind of sad, I'd like to see it driven. But a nice random interaction among car enthusiasts I thought I'd share.
 
Why are pictures never the right way up when I upload from my phone? :s
 
Both pictures are mobile phone quality. :grumpy:

I saw this Caterham on a local parking lot.
Nice little car in the Caterham F1 livery. It also had the new Caterham front badge.

This second picture, is a Ferrari F430 and a 7 replica not 100% sure if it is a Caterham.
It was near the Nürburgring F1 Circuit for a Classic event.

Those Mustangs remind me of the idiots I saw driving Camaros and Challengers around in the snow today. Also, I did see a Hyundai Tiburon. Turned my head for a moment, not really common.
