wossat?


Dude if you see the Bagheeeeeeeera, TAKE LOADS OF PICS! I just recently bought the French-made 1:64 Majorette model (minty BTW, 3 bucks, mwahaha!) and am quite intrigued by this thing.

About your mistery car, gotdamn, a Fiat? Maybe an Abarth. Could also be some kind of Renault Caravelle, but really rare. Dunno, really. O_o
 
Serge: All of the Audi A6 and S6 Avants I've seen have the badge on the lower left of the grille, so on basis of that I'd say it isn't an S6. But then again, it's visually tough to tell the difference between the A6 and S6.
 
No camera = no pictures but when I was at an autocross yesterday a Ferrari 330 GTC pulled up and stayed there for the rest of the event. Too bad it didn't compete... :p

Yeah, it's an A6 with an S6 badge. Even though the S6 did have discreet styling, it's still easy to tell.

the bagheera seems to be a new addition to the area, and the guy (20s im guessing) seems to be using it around town a bit. i had a good chance but couldnt find me camera quick enough doh! its in a wonderful beige colour lol
i hope to spot it again soon and be ready this time

as for the yellow thing, i tried variations on the registration, filling in the gaps but all it came up with was a few lambrettas, porsche or a vw variant :confused:
 
I agree with you on the convertible thing, although the real travesty was how dirty that Ferrari was... however either way if you check our weather you'll find it's been unseasonably cold the last few days, which is why those tops were up.

It's kind of funny you mention that, because the white Aston I photographed earlier had its top down and plates from Chattannooga, Tenn., in the "mountains" (aka hills-- the Appalachian Mtns) where it's traditionally considerably colder this time of year. Meanwhile the Panoz was local and the 360 Spider was from Texas, both places where it's traditionally warmer this time of year - and the decisions their owners made on top up vs. top down reflected their locations perfectly!
 
I shot these photos last week. Bad conditions to shoot, but that's alright. I got to drive it this weekend too. I was the one who got him into cars (or I'd like to think), so he did his research, found this '92 SLC with 60,000 miles. It's now chipped, full exhaust and rolling on T1R's. I'm proud :D It drives as perfect as a Rado ever should too.

Hopefully I'll get to see it again before the snow (although they're already promising some flakes out where he lives) so I can get some time to properly shoot it.
 
Firstly, my pics will be up on thursday afternoon, and also
I saw something really special today, Let´s just say I made sure it wasn´t a replica before photographing it....
 
I'm guessing Cobra, GT40 or a Speedster.

Nope, what I believe to be a ferrari 250 GTO :D I considered it to be a replica, but it all looked fine, and lets face it, it´s puerto banus, they don´t do replicas here...
But I have seen a speedster aswell, on california plates..

EDIT. I´m not sure if it was GTO, I dont think it was a kit, it had ferrari badges all over the shop, right interior and sounded amazing, it looked like this:

Unless you got confirmation it was the real deal, i'd assume it was a replica. Replicas of these are plentiful, most almost perfect, but replicas all the same.

The majority of the owners of the real thing seem reluctant to take them out in public, unless it's to a big circuit event or concours event.


The VW is a 411 Estate (1970s).
