Remember seeing it when it first came out at the Geneva motor show. Absolutely stunning. However I would be inclined to have it in as white roadster. http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/2769522.htm :mrgreen:

Spotted two Jag XK150s with French number plates on the M8 on Sunday, Louise managed to grab a quick pic of one as we passed it;

Also spotted a Mercedes SLR in Glasgow today, white with blue cobra stripes (which looked rubbish on it).

Colostomy bag beige panamera yesterday in Inverurie. Why did they spec it that clour and why did the dealer let them? Maybe it was a bet.

I always thought it was hearing aid beige....

Dom - IIRC that SLR is a certain Rangers player (illustrating the stereotypical taste-bypass) who likes to court controversey :roll:

Never even knew about Alvis but found this

Seen lots of really old stuff, austin 7's and the like on the M6 on Friday and Sunday also saw Alex Curran going into some posh jewlers in liverpool but apparently a t shirt with a bloke gropping a tranny* is not the correct attire and as a result I couldn't get a better look
