Spotted a black Citroen DS on Byres Road/Hyndland Road last week. 8)

And there's a CX usually parked (looks like a working daily driver) just off Queen Margaret Drive.

Truly lovely example of a Lotus Carlton sitting parked on a west end street of ABZ and has been for about a week.

Maser MC Stradale in white. Guy friendly and happy to chat about it. Best sound in modern day motoring?

Spotted my all time favourite last night at the traffic lights by Morrisons in Dundee heading North.

They don't come much stranger than a Ferrari F40 in the Dundee rush hour, in the rain!!

Made me smile, a lot :D

That's owned by a guy at my work who stays down Biggar direction and occasionally brings it in.

Think that must be my mate Peter. I am sure he said he had the only white one in Scotland. Mind you, maybe Graeme sold him it!! :mrgreen: He also has a blue F430 16M
