Was in edinburgh this morning and saw a Pagani Zonda, he let me out of a junction and then followed my up the High Street and then along the 'Bridges'...
Not seen one in the flesh before, and going by the number of people pulling out camera phones and cameras neither had many other people.
Sorry no pics, but never had a camera with me.
Anyone else seen it about?

I have seen a Zonda, Enzo x3, F40, F50, GT40, SLR, Porker GT, Bugatti Veyron and a F1 but all in London. Nice to hear there are a few super cars up here. All i have seen up here is an SLR and a Lambo or two.

My girlfriend spotted the zonda day before yesterday, and it wasnt the same Zonda I saw on the M8 - might be the rio prestige one you saw?

My parents were out with an old friend from school that they had met through Friends Reunited, went for dinner in the Scotsman hotel where he was staying in the Penthouse suite, he got turfed out of school at 15 and is now doing pretty well for himself.
Subject got onto cars somehow, anyway the car he had brought down from Aberdeen was a ... Pagani Zonda. Neither of my parents had a clue what it was and were pretty shocked when I told them the price tag! (also thought it was funny that his daily runabout is a 20 year old BMW but he loves it apparently)
Anyway I'm now nagging for a spin next time he's down! I guess that's who you spotted anyway.

Was the Zonda a slightly bronzing colour?
We saw it when we popped up to Forfar to pick up our new car. It was coming down the A90 from Dundee towards "The Horn".
Unfortunately we were on the other carriageway as would have loved to seen more of it.
I presumed it was owned by someone from Aberdeen as I cannot see any Dundee/Dundee United football players earning that much
Best cars that I have see so far were:
Mercedes SLR (at the press launch. Iwas out in South Africa on business, had my Toyota Tazz up to max revs trying to keep up for a glimpse)
Porsche GT in Dubai

There was a Carrera GT going past King's Buildings at 13:30 this afternoon.
Come to think of it an old Lambo Espada was going down Lothian Road last night as well.
Is there some form of rally/run on?

Probably just nice weather. I saw a silvery grey carrera GT in Edinburgh last week, least someone using it ! Also saw a full AirItalia stickered up Lancia Stratos today in Clarkston which looked very cool!

I think it was more greyish than bronze, maybe a titanium....Not too sure though as it was behind me and then below, beside me, I was in my Jeep.
Saw a Carera GT a few weeks ago heading towards Edinburgh, and I know somebody who has one and it wasn't him...

Could well be that I mistook the colour due to the terrible weather towards Dundee and I did pass in the opposite direction.
Must admit a really nice car, one the missus would love to own
