I Googled some pics but the rear particularly is veeery similar. For future reference, what are the differences? Cheers!

Biggest differences on the rear of the cars are the two lights housings (indicators?) on the inside of the wings on the TR3, these are absent on the TR2. The TR3 also has a metal boot release (not sure if it is a boot release?) whereas on the TR2 this is another light housing. 👍

Ah pretty subtle but I still should've noticed. Cheers!
 
Porsche 911 [991]

My fifth 911. :grumpy: But, my first 991! :D

Audi R8

My second! :D

Toyota MR2


Porsche Cayenne


BMW 5 Series

​

Also, I saw a Porsche Carrera GT with the 991, but I was too slow. :grumpy: I HATE TWILIGHT MODE! :mad:
 
Pretty boring day in terms of spotting. Pretty average.

Okay, so, there was this SLS near Tesco. [1 of 4]

Always at least one 458, this one had a black roof for some reason.

Boring selection by the standards of where I spot.

Looks like it :)

Not common around here, it was so big I had to flip my cellphone cam, thus including my finger.

Good spot from where you are 👍, but the shop I take my car too I swear they at least have one anytime I go. They should advertise they specialize in them. :p

Then be quiet. If its 'boring', then its not 'good', and therefore irrelevant for this thread. I always see you going 'meh' and stuff after you post. If it doesn't tickle your fancy, then please just stop posting as all you are doing is seemingly boast about 'where you spot'. I could post a Camry wagon or a selection of Skyline GTRs or many things that people don't see every day and I have seen interest from in this thread, but I don't because they are common to me. If they are common to you then pipe down and don't use it as a platform to just prance about where you go spotting. The pedigree of cars you show is similar to Rue's Hong Kong shots, but I know who's more excited about it.

Nice cars, shame about the posting. 👎

Boring isn't the correct term I could've used, sorry. It just isn't a good batch from what is usually out on the high-street.

I don't boast about where I spot. The area is called Alderley Edge, just a small, rather wealthy town which displays some exotic metal now and again. I've seen cars worth over £1,000,000 around here. Trust me, I will not be stopping soon.

I admire these cars, don't get the idea I dislike them. 👍

Ironic much?

By all means keep spotting and posting, but at least have a little humility with it. We don't all live in "small, rather wealthy towns" full of overpaid footballers.
 
I don't live there. I visit every Saturday.

I was just stating how it is a small village which occasionally has a few nice cars. Not trying to apparently boast again.

Is it normal to get excite cover a gray dihatsu copen?

Sure, they aren't too common in the UK. I got pics of a silver one a while back and was happy :)

Do you have pics of yours? if not I might make them my first posts here, if you do maybe I will post 'em at a later date or not at all.

^^ That Copen is a cooler colour than mine anyway, good spot!

I think the Stratos is a replica (most are and the plate bears this out) but it's still awesomesauce.

I seen it at the 2012 Pirelli rally in carlisle.

Anyway. Another Copen (note: the owner went into Ford to pick up his keys for his Focus, it's his wife's car. He was happy to show me around it and showed me a couple of things he wanted o do with it.)
