Last few posts -

The Volvo C30 above is the ETCC race car - in current rules pushing out not far off 300bhp (that one on ethanol) and that particular car is a 5-cyl that sounds absolutely glorious.

The Lexus ISs - My favourites are the first ones in each of Time_Attack's posts - the white and black ones. It's a car I keep on forgetting exists, actually, but I really like them. You can pick them up from as little as just under £3k in the UK now, which is fantastic value really. I'd actually be quite tempted by one in a few years time.

The MX-5s - this one is rather lovely:

The Caterhams - the cornering shot reminded me of one Famine posted of his MX-3 somewhere deep within the forums (a photo I can't find after a quick search) given that it's taken at the same corner. I don't recognise the circuit though (Edit: Duh, it's in the image name - Llandow) Edit 2: Hah, after searching the track in the forums, I found the photo...

IS300s are going for about 10-12k on average here. Maybe in a year or two I'll pick one up. Then again I'm probably just having a fling since my SW20 hasn't ran in over 6 months.
 
For some reason, there's just something about VAG cars...with blacked out badging
Me too. It's because I'd rather not see the VAG-fanboy glare that reflects in those shiny badges.

But yeah, they look alright too.
 
Last week Andy from Sport Compact Culture sent me an email alerting me to something beyond awesome. I know what you are thinking. You’re thinking he sent me a link to Bill Cosby fighting the Witch from Narnia and then buying everyone Jell-o pudding cups. No, this is even more awesome then that (hard to believe I know). But it’s truly more awesome.
:lol:
