Six97s Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Seen on the road this morning, a Triumph 2000/2500 in fully rally getup - white, black bonnet, decals, large number '1' on the bonnet and doors.

Pete in Lincs Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 This morning near The Sherwood Forest Center Parcs a black Honda NSX. It wafted down the road at speed leaving a scent of petrol & burnt oil. The reg plate read NSX too! Later in Lincoln a black LHD Mini. Maybe an Innocenti? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatfingers Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 (edited) Fancied Fish & Chips today so took a run over to Filey and spotted this! It's been there all weekend doing 'tank rides' on the beach. Tide was well and truly in when we got there so no ride for me! ☹ Regards, Steve Edited May 15, 2022 by fatfingers 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six97s Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 (edited) I saw this 1932 Wolseley near Coventry this afternoon (it's now dark blue), along with a cream Mk2 Jag and a red Moggy 1000 pickup. I guess there had been a gathering at Coombe Abbey? Wolseley: https://flic.kr/p/dV5R9d Edited May 15, 2022 by Six97s 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in Lincs Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Slightly weird at around 7:15 this morning in Lincoln. A cyclist waiting on a red traffic light. Lycra, helmet, and a penny farthing! Later, near Radcliff, Nottingham, a red Sierra. Saw it again later in the afternoon on the A46. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six97s Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 On the school run this morning, a dark green 1963 (A-reg) Karmann Ghia coupe. Cal look, *really* low. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR2Don Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Just back from a week in Ireland and saw very little, other than the Subaru meetup at Toddington last Sunday morning - more Subis there than at any dealership. However, just out of curiosity, there's this, Porsche 911 from above, taken out of the window of Dublin Art Gallery. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chimpion Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Last week lots of Golf GTIs descended on my locality (there's an annual event which has been cancelled again this year but they turn up anyway); this weekend seems to be the turn of the sports and supercars. Ironically the rarest sighting during the GTI meet was a bright lemon yellow Citroen Dyane van. Last night I was followed home from the pizza takeaway (which incidentally had a spotless early Beetle convertible in the car park) by a new Porsche with racing spoiler, painted white with classic Martini livery. Today I encountered what I'm pretty sure was a Maclaren supercar and then an immaculate looking Lancia Delta with full body kit and spoiler in black Martini livery. Need to pick up my daughter soon and have won brownie points from the wife for being today's taxi driver - haven't told her I'm actually keen to go out hunting for more automotive exotica! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete in Lincs Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Here's a couple for you... This one was spotted by my Son. Totally original K reg (71/72) low mileage. It's fifty years old for goodness sake! Norwich yesterday. Dodge van (80's?) Note the illegal Brit reg on an American style plate! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malpaso Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I’m not really keen on e-types, but a pale brown metallic S1 roadster admittedly looked nice when it passed me and my dog on our morning walk. Not sure Bo appreciated the characteristic waft of burnt 20w/50 though! Then a nice grey/blue Midget passed by whilst I was filling up. Had a cage etc and sounded rorty, was a bit quick to decide if a track car or a restomod. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
