Never mind 'Spotted, Nobody in his car, playing Taylor Swift'

or

'Someone in their Civic Type R, boring'

How about 'Spotted, a proper car, on the road, I got a picture...'

Maybe they had a child with them?

Having said that, I drive something worth less than a clutch on one of those things and I'm the same.

How much time did you waste?

Loads man, I so needed sleep aswell. Can understand though why you would be on wiki when your in florida? How much time are you wasting out there?
Posted By: Anonymous Re: Special Cars... 'Spotted' - 19th Jul 2011 12:11pm
You'll see me here first or last thing generally, or during one of the tropical thunderstorms that arrive quickly and leave even quicker.

For example, it's about 8am, and I'm eating some ENGLISH (would you believe) muffins with ham and cheese on before going for a walk.

I'm going to Google image search some more stuff later and post it, pretending that I took the pictures. I can't wait for your fully detailed breakdown of the pics wink

Hummers aren't all they make out stu, I seen one break once just climbing over a few rocks. I wouldn't be best pleased if it were mine.

Well I did ask earlier if you were in the states but you didnt answer, so I drew my own conclusions wink

If Nobody is in florida who was driving the car and who took the photo?... wooooo ghost

In Southport a few weekends ago we saw a red Audi R8 Spyder a yellow Ferrari 458 and a Yellow Lamborghini Gallardo all on one sunny day! I was driving so couldn't shoot any pics frown
Posted By: rhoobarb2002 Re: Special Cars... 'Spotted' - 17th Aug 2011 9:46pm
I see a 90's, 8-Series BMW Koenig Special around New Ferry fairly regularly. Never have a camera on me when its spotted though. But you can see it on google street view waiting at the lights on the north corner of Hamilton Square and Argyle Street (east side of the lights facing west).

Cant say Ive ever seen another in the flesh.
Posted By: Anonymous Re: Special Cars... 'Spotted' - 18th Aug 2011 6:13am
I've no interest in seeing one in the flesh. Horrendous looking thing...

What you want is an unmolested one... wink

I had to do a double take when I saw it, thought it was some 80's style testarossa bodykit. Then I saw the Koenig badges.

Just reminds me of a car that someone with an open shirt, hairy chest and big gold medallion would have.

For the age, make and price range I would prefer this instead.

hmm strange, shows up on mine think , but its an E34 M5, best of the early 90's beemers IMO, a lot more understated ans subtle, not so brash, bold and 'look at me'.

I would bet hard to find a decent one that hasnt been ragged now though frown
Posted By: Anonymous Re: Special Cars... 'Spotted' - 18th Aug 2011 12:41pm
It's my work network, blocks certain things.

E34 M5, yes a fantastic car. In fact, my old man had one years ago, must have been around 1995 perhaps, I remember he used to take me to school in it.

Avus blue I think it was.

Still, I love our 8 series.
