Wow, those look so much better in reality ;)

That quality is not too bad Twm. What camera phone is that?

t. · September 19, 2008

It was taken with my backup (sat on my other phone) Samsung D600 then cleaned a bit in Photoshop. Came out alright but a bit grainy.

Today it was outside, what a beauty.

And what a sound when they drove it back into the garage. Person driving it also revved it, wow! :D

Nothing really today, just a black R8, a silver Impreza WRX Ver. IV and a white Impreza WRX Ver. VI. Oh, and a very stupidly and scarily modified Saxo VTR (VTR stickers EVERYWHERE!!!! It advertises the fact it's a VTR more than Apple advertise the fact that (for whatever reason you wish to do so) you can put your MacBook Air into an envelope).

Why is the license plate taped up?

Mb · September 20, 2008

It's a dealer plate, dealerplates don't have a holder so they use tape :p

Followed a pair of Belgian TVR Tuscan's onto the M3 on the way home tonight. The front one appeared to be a Coupe and the rear a Targa.

You can thank my phone for the poor quality.

I'm quite sure they are both coupes. They either have the fixed back and roof section or a back that goes back and a roof section is that makes sence. Is the back one the purple / blue paint?

Anyway saw a Audi R8 (picture later) aswell as loads of other stuff like M5's, SLK 55 AMG's ect.

I saw them side on going round a roundabout prior to that photo. The red one appeared to be a Coupe but could have been a targa with the roof on, I couldn't tell. The black one had no roof on it but the rear window came up to the roof line which lead me to believe it was Targa not Spider. I'm pretty sure that with the Spider there's no rear window when the roof is down.

Where abouts in Hampshire are you if you don't mind me asking, I live near Winchester.

Didn't see you where in Hampshire, yer I'm fair close to Winchester (in another town near it) but don't really want to say where for obvious reasons. Looking at that pic I know the roundabout, that's quite strange.

Yer the Tuscan 2 convertible (is classed as a different model according to TVR) looks like this when the roof is down.

You can see the targa one behind it. Has a detachable roof like all tuscans.

EDIT: I did see you where in Hampshire but your name has changed :) grrr

t. · September 21, 2008

Yea so the black one was a Targa then, woop. Red one, who knows. Let's just say Coupe.

Went to a Modified car show in Pembrey/Wales 20 minutes from where I live yesterday and saw quite a lot of cars, for once some nice ones.

Nissan Skyline R34, loads of these.

Vauxhaul Monaro - The sound was simply amazing, the toruqe was immense.

Nissan Skyline Gt-R the new one :D That was awesome, looks so nice.

Ford Mustang

Dodge Charger

AC Cobra

Tank

I didn't have the camera when I went in the morning, but my dad went in the afternoob and he took some photos, but when he got there most of the cars had gone :( and he sucked at taking photos.
