Some custom Karmann Ghias look kinda sweet (though I prefer stock) but the rims and whitewalls spoil that one, too bad.
 
Here's a few that i forgot to upload, apologies about the bad angles on a few of them. :)

Reliant Robin


Modified Subaru impreza


Nissan Figaro


Jaguar XK8



Citroen 2CV


MG Midget and Mini

A little help identifying the car on the right please.

And now my favourite one of all
BMW M5 E39



I know its not that impressive when compared to the other spottings on here, but this is the first E39 M5 i have seen, been over 10 years :D.

I think the car on the left of the mini is a MGBGT.

Ummmm.... Do I spy another E39 M5 in the background of the first XK8 pic? Top left corner to be specific.

It could also be a Midget, that's what I think it is.

It's not a GT.

I think you're right, the two squares on either side of the boot, are slightly away from the lights. And theres no silver trim on the rear bumper.

Thanks for the help 👍

Love the shot of the Bentley :drool:

And white is the best colour on a 370Z imo.
 
Your best spot was the RS6, not the Porsche. Repeat after me, RS6, RS6, RS6.

The Peugeot is also cool.
 
Cano, i was in the middle of typing, best spot was the RS6 by far, and I saw your comment haha! For real though, RS6 Avant = :drool::dopey:
 
This looked so good sitting amongst all the dreary modern sheds.

A prestine 1973 Ford Cortina 2000.

Edit: as usual the inability for this iPhone app to post pictures properly from Flickr (I'm blaming the app because I'm sure I'm doing everything right, lol) is ruining my post.

Just double click the link or something - that should make it work.

Another streched H2 I forget what city this one was in. I had to get from my hotel in Anaheim to the hotel in LA that the Contiki tour I was going on was leaving from. I checked how much a taxi would be and how long it would take and I decided to go with this.

I'm more interested in that integra in the background there!

Lol, yeah the Integra looks cool with stickers, spoiler and stuff but I don't think it really goes fast. :scared: The BMW is pretty cool as well, it's got twin exhaust pipes! Can you imagine that on a car so old! :drool: If only I had one of those, I'd be cruising in a classic. :cool:
