Did You See Anything Good Today? [Read First Post]

[Rue]

No pics, but on Saturday I saw ... a Conti GT (in red no less) ...

CGT - Never seen one in red

Snap!

 

[CDailey]

Man, that car is so sexy in red. Definetly my favorite color on that car.

 

[Sage]

Yeech, do you also drive a Leopard-patterned G-Wiz?

BTW, how come the license plate looks “hooked” on?

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Surely not the first Audi R8... but the first damaged R8?

Where's the damage?

 

[Sage]

Uh, that fender’s missing a fairly significant hunk.

Unregistered.

 

[McLaren]

Unregistered.

Is that what it means? I've seen a lot of cars in your post with similar things holding the front plate.

Oops, I probably should have brightened the image

Is that what it means? I've seen a lot of cars in your post with similar things holding the front plate.

From Wiki:

Motor Dealers or Traders use red on white numberplates for driving on demonstrations or for moving unlicenced vehicles between the docks and garages etc. These use the letter 'T' (Trade) with up to five preceding numerals. In 2007 this series had reached the 11-thousands.

to be honest, I didn't notice it until I was looking through the pics at home. Had I seen it when I took the pic I prolly would've zoomed in on it.

I was out shopping this afternoon and came across this little gem. I briefly spoke to the gentleman, who was obviously in a hurry. He said 'most of it was from 1928, but I'm unable to identify. Any experts out there?

The post is above. Can someone at least identify the base?

 

[Serge.D]

then it's not a Jeep, now is it?

Oh, I got a pic of an Audi S5... it's trapped in my phone until I can get the software to take it out of there.

Not Jeep like the brand Jeep,but jeep like suv or pickup.

Today.


Ford Mustang.


My first Volvo P1800 S.

Schnitzel? A piece of meat?

Fixed.

thanks

BMW Z8 in the less common red colour:

Finally, a Lexus IS-F:

 

[Sage]

Oh good, you can’t see it very well – that makes it look much better.

 

[Joey D]

Ya it's not a very pretty looking car, although the exhausts are kinda neat.

 

[Cano]

No, I've seen this guy around before. It's loud, it's nice, but it's a moderately-tuned flathead. Fast for a rat rod, but that's about it.

Ah, then you would have destroyed it, indeed.

 

[Cano]

Today:

DJGNVHJNVCSHJGFLFVHJYTVLN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 👍

 

[Dougboy]

What i saw today....

Same V8V i saw a few days ago. But i managed to snap a "relatively" better pic this time

your typical RS4

Spot of the Day

Unlike Doug, i dont see many of these 57S'

BMW Z8 in the less common red colour:

Red is not that uncommon - what's rare about that one is the tan top. VERY cool sighting.

Unlike Doug, i dont see many of these 57S'

I've only seen five - I just see the same ones over and over. Good spot!

Today for me:

 

[stumpydino]

Some old jeep,looks like a old Land Rover.

dont you dare use the j word against a land rover
that i believe is a minerva, belgian built series ones (with permission of course, and a few changes)

 

[Cano]

That pickup is not a Type II VW,its a Tempo Viking.

Thanks, the Super Beetle is rare here, it was never sold officialy, tough some of them made trough the north US border, and so was the ragtop Rabbit, never sold here but there are quite a lot... still rare to see, but not as much as a Super Beetle.

The Tempo is weeeeird, never seen one before (:


And in the Mustang and Volvo 1800 post, where the heck are the pictures of all the other cool old cars in that shop? heck man, snap everything there! I see karmans, an old 30s car (wth is that?) and a Peugeot 205! snaps!

 

[Rue]

Serge, is Belgium the place where all classic European cars go to die? Seriously it looks like an absolute treasure trove of vintage metal.

 

[Speedster502]

Today for me:

Delorean DMC12!

Did you know that some person in Texas has restarted building Deloreans and they are being sold again? I didn't until I read my TopGear, quite amazing really that a car which came from the eighties is back in production and is being sold again.

 

[McLaren]

Yep. The infamous Stephen Wynn is the one who bought the company and manufacturers the cars in Houston.

 

[-Fred-]

It might have a better chance of hitting 88mph behind that Expedition than on its own...

There's at least a Karmann Ghia, a BMW 635, a 1.4 litre Peugeot 205, a Mercedes 280SL drophead and what seems to be a Daewoo Nubira estate on ramps.

 

[1X83Z]

So true. I truly and honestly wonder which would reach 88mph quicker - the Exped towing the DeLorean or the DeLorean itself. I guarantee you the Exped would be quicker sans DeLorean, but the trailer might even things out.

930 911 carerra cab imitating a turbo:

it was a dirty bugger too!

 

[exigeracer]

Bondy - first shot of the cab is great!

My first facelifted SL was a big bad SL63. This thing looked soooo awkward.

My first Conti GT Speed

I love seeing these things cause I know the guy's telling his dates he drives a Rolls Royce, then shows up in this piece. The look on the date's face must be priceless.

GT

Is anyone else seeing R8s almost daily, or is it just me? They've everywhere.

AUTOBOTS, ROLLOUT!

Sidenote: today I snapped my camera's 10,000th frame. This was 9999, but it rolled over to 10,001, skipping the MMMMMMMMMM.
