Well, there are lots of great shows and meets around London. Just go for a look if not to show

Somebody took this picture of it outside my house a few years back and it ended up being sold as a postcard, which made me chuckle.

That's pretty English though, isn't it.

It's not, but it looks like one of the Meons, or probably any church in rural leafy England.

It's a 14th Century church opposite my house.

My cat loves roaming round the headstones.

Took my car for a service the other day, they had one of these in

Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale For Sale - Southwood Car Company

I am loathe to breath publicity for some jumped up little oik, his car company and up and coming television show, but has anyone else bothered to check out the Hoonigan website, wicked Hoonigan

I remember my mum had one of these for a bit in the early '80s - exactly like this one:

Talbot Sunbeam ti

Which was cool ... But not as cool as this:

Talbot Lotus Sunbeam

Sadly my mum didn't have one of them.

I also had a 2CV - just dug out this old pic (apologies for the poor quality)



Me and a friend (also a 2CV owner) were members of the owners' club, we went to at least one rally - here's a pic of some 2CV race cars (they had a proper championship thing going)



There were also some 2CVs with the 1300cc flat four Diane top end stuck on the 600cc 2CV bottom end iirc

It's ugly, it's hardcore but posted for the wannabe Ford Ka!

Wrong thread - should be in boat porn
So how about a classic Brit to get back on track?

If I get a big enough lottery win then I'm having one.

One of these was in my car park last week; it did not look as nearly as ugly as I thought it would

Can't wait till my sexy car driving job starts again!

Will post pics when it does

Porsche 935 from the 1980 24hdM. Back when Apple did interesting things.

Yeah there's really no excuse for letting any one person have so much money that they can have a warehouse with basically every supercar ever.

If I could afford just one little tiny Bugatti Veyron, I'd probably start thinking I might be quite a lot richer than anyone really needs to be.

At the London Motor Show yesterday there were some nice exotic cars; Ferrari, Lamborghini, Masareti, three McLarens, several Astons, a Camaro, a few Mustangs and this. I would

At the moment I'm getting a bit of a thing about my old car. It has now passed the last 3 MoT and two Spanish ITV tests without faults. Not bad for a car I bought with the intention of keeping for a year and then getting rid because it was so old. I think I'll keep it.

I saw a 4C on the roads yesterday, tried to catch the driver for a chat, alas traffic did not permit. So here it is with it's bigger brother

 

[weltweit]

I saw one of these today, in quite good nick, leather seats etc

The owner said he was going to get it resprayed next year, apart from that nothing needed..

Classics and now very collectable I believe especially the 3.5 V8. Great car in it's day, not bad now

 

[DownwardDog]

Great car in it's day, not bad now

It really wasn't. It was once rated by the RAC as the worst new car you could buy. And that was in the 70s when it had to beat off some pretty fierce competition from other BL products for the title.

Disco Volonte (flying disc - so basically it's called a UFO ).
saw it reviewed on Top Gear once by Clarkson - loved the look of it:

An 8C has to die to make one of those things, but it's probably worth it.

Me, I'm trying desperately to make the man-maths come out so that this is affordable:

but I might have to wait for it to drop quite some way eh.

Can't imagine it being worth £5k in five years like some of its forerunners.

There isn't going to be manual RHD QV unfortunately. And the manual is the only reason to have one over an M3 IMO. I also suspect that Alfa have chased that ridiculous headline power number (505bhp) at the expense of other considerations like not blowing up the turbos after about 18 months.

We'll see I guess. It's not massively disproportionately off compared to the V8 applications with Ferrari. I can just about get over there being no manual - the ZF 8 speed is supposed to be much better than its other applications. I can think of enough subjective reasons to pick it over an M3.
