Quote from: ShaunYesterday: 27 silver cars with double car flags.

Very poor! :(

I saw one with four door flags and a fifth on the rear roof arial. I think they are breeding TBH :(

Aston Martin today

gawsh,  damn it just made the sound of fuel being guzzled fast, somehow.  it just sounded expensive.

V12... awsome... :o

and the side-lights are sooo cool, a small line of LEDs on the inside of each headlight cluster..  looked brilliant!

Scimitar light tank beats an Aston Martin, you dont go very fast with a 30mm shell through your motor...

Beaker

last couple of days :

Lotus Esprit round the corner, the guy has just bought it aparrently.  He loved the fact I wandered round for a drool.  

TVRs, many many TVRs.  They must be doing a TVR Meet over Blackpool way and going on the A roads.  

MK2 Cortina with a 4.2L Supercharged Jag engine.  Beautiful Beautiful noise.

You know theyre made there right?  Theyre probably just road testing them.  I went out for a blast round the A roads while I was there, fricking amazing :D

yup, a guy just down the road works there :)

They do meets on the front @ Lytham quite often, im assuming that fact there where quite a few in procession there is some kind of meet this weekend.

Funniest one i saw was a Speed12 (protoype I assume) that a moron in a 3-series BMW decided he could beat at a roundabout.  ive never seen a car take off that fast  8)

Binary Shadow

Its a silly car.  Youd be amazed how nicely it held the road though, it wasnt really the monster Wheeler painted it out to be.  How recently did you see it?  If it was in the last year or two it would have been the only one built up for a customer.  I was working there while it was in build, worked with the guy doing the engine for a while.

hmm, 2/3 years ago i think, IIRC from seeing it in my rearview it ws the older bodystyle, which is why i assumed it was the prototype.  Sounded gorgeous, im assuming they where taking it to the road at Treals they use for "testing".

I thought we had some photographers on here? Get some images uploaded!


Goblin

Well, theres bucket loads of 911 around here, and a couple of them are Turbos. Saw the new XK for the first time yesterday and an AMV8 Vantage this afternoon.

Rarest thing I saw recently was also this afternoon, a Range Rover Vogue that was actually properly covered in mud.
It's all fun and games until a 200' robot dinosaur shows up and trashes Neo-Tokyo... Again.
