Spotted this bad boy on Saturday in Edinburgh

Image

Checking the MOT history shows that it has covered 50k miles but someone has covered over 14k miles in from Aug 2014-Oct 2015, must be a "Rust to Rome" purchase to cover that number of miles in that car!!!

Amusingly, I have a set of the same RIMZ sat in my garage, awaiting refurb for my wee Citroen :)

I've noticed a Impreza 22b in jordanhill. Spotted about a month ago and again today. And a martini liveried integrale near bearsden. Both cars look amazing but not sure if they would live up to my expectations and doubt they could match an Elise tbh. It's amazing how much they are both worth these days though.

Spotted an Evo GT Estate on the A90 last night.

Admit they are not the nicest looking estate on the market but a serious fast way of carrying your luggage!!!

Spotted what I'm convinced was a black Ferrari 288 GTO on the Edinburgh bypass yesterday in the rain.

I guess there must have been some sort of supercar show on as I later passed a few modern lambos, a new R8 a couple of other low things I couldn't make out over the barrier, all heaving south as I was going north.

There also seemed to be a whole bunch of VWs, particularly Beetles and campervans on the m'way on Sunday.

There's a red one that seems to be a daily driver in Prestwick.

Not a rare car but driving to Southampton airport I saw a new style Range Rover with number plate "07".

That plate must be worth a tidy sum.
