A shot that appears to be a microcosm of Britain :lol:

The SLK 32 must be one of the more obscure but very rare shots, I can't imagine they sold many of them.

Just looked on how many left, there's 227 currently on the roads in the UK.
 
Wow, someone else spotted a SLK32 AMG as well. Nice!

Anyway after getting my work schedule for this week, I decided to go for a drive to see what I could find.

1971 Ford Mustang Grande

A Gen 1 Jaguar XK, I don't see these much.

Another '71 Mustang that is covered up.

A VW Beetle that looks like it was a taxi or something.

YES! My first mk2 Supra! I the owner also happened to come out with his wife just as I snapped this. He told me that he's apparently going to put a built up 2JZ engine in it. That should turn out awesome.

Saw this very clean, somewhat simple Ford going to work

20140705_074425-1.jpg

Saw this in-good-shape Fiero while on break. I believe it's actually the first I've ever seen.
20140705_100512.jpg

Dat Marquis tho @Doog
GT500 Convertible while leaving- I've actually seen the car before but was never able to take a picture. Driven by a 50 year old lady who, coincidentally, had the entire front left rim curb rashed.

I'm for sure on the wagon because that's where I park at work and you can see my nasioc sticker on my window. The legacy I can only assume but that's my girlfriends parents place so it would make sense.
 
Well, I tried spotting again today when going to see a movie.

Tacoma X-Runner

An e39 M5 with a roof rack on it and I also saw it again later on.

So, that's about 12 cars in a day, I think I might be getting better, but I need to improve my timing & quality.
 
This was from yesterday; 944 Turbo, which I believe is the first turbo model 944 I've seen.

M3

Ferrari... 512? Maybe 348? Sorry, it's a little blurry and far away...

(Should have cropped, sorry)
Bentley Continental
20140706_075053.jpg

CL63 AMG
20140706_091931-1.jpg

It has a rather ugly (but I'm assuming functional) scoop but it looks like it runs. Not bad condition....
20140706_093652-1.jpg

El Camino
2014-07-06 10.16.51.jpg

And a couple junkie photos. Same lot as the two above... You can make out a few of them...

20140706_093707.jpg
20140706_093700.jpg

And, story time. I left the lot above and turned left on my way home. I go about 1/4 mile and I see this other little construction-like zone. Turn my head a little and I see something.
"HOLY 🤬 WAS THAT A 🤬 DAIHATSU MIDGET!?" So I gently come to a stop and turn onto a little side road and turn back. It was only an 8th gen Suzuki Carry :(

Holy mctaters! an S65 AND a CTS-V Wagon?
Sidenote- I have a feeling the S65 owner had like... a spine experiment after getting hurt in war... or something.
