      6. Car Spotting: What You Saw Recently! - Part 2

        in Automotive Discussion

        Posted

        Obviously I saw a crapload of nice cars at Goodwood, but saw plenty of nice cars travelling down/around/from the area we stayed in! Countless Huracans, 458s, the odd F12, many Tesla Model S... even saw a LaFerrari and a 458 Speciale in convoy! But one of the highlights was seeing a Lamborghini Diablo go past on the M25 whilst we were in slow traffic... not a huge fan of the car but damn that thing is loud!

          The back of that Alfa reminds me of this:

          I mean, the Kia Optima is a good looking car, but not so sure on that Alfa, will need so see more of it before I can pass judgement on it.

           

          Also that Mini Clubman looks as expected, but I really like it! Mini are on form right now, except for the Countryman and Paceman...

            Psh at hardtop. :p

             

            When you take it for a service, don't mention anything that might be wrong with it if they ask you. Before that though there's no harm in getting under the car yourself and having a feel/look/listen at all the joins and flanges in the exhaust system. As long as you don't start taking parts off of it nothing can go wrong. Trust me, I know from past experience. :lol:

             

            A good clay, polish and wax should bring the paint up and make it look almost like new as long as there are no big scratches.

            Cheers Mr Camel :) Might take it to a proper Mazda service place since I don't know what kind of condition the car is actually in, but not mention anything to them. They'll charge the earth but might be worth it for the first time.

             

            And yeah true, its just there's a big scratch next to the MX-5 badge which doesn't look too good :(

              Thanks peoples.

               

              @santtu: The hard top isn't too bad to remove/fit really, it's just a bit bulky and storage is a problem. That's why I put it straight on the car even though its lovely weather... (@camel too)

               

              I think it looks better with it on, though yeah the timing isn't great tim :p

               

              Car's looking nice and clean, nice :D

               

              Any plans in the pipeline for it, other than possibly removing the hardtop again? :cheeky:

               

              Thanks Myk :D other than removing the hardtop, I need to get the base car back to optimum, the paint work needs some looking at and it sounds like the exhaust might be blowing (unless its my ears that are blowing), so when it goes in for a service in a few months time, I'll look into all these things. After that, some new wheels and maybe lowering it by putting MazdaSpeed springs on... maybe... ;)

                Now this sounds a lot more promising, I just can't get into FM5 at all, not when 95% of the car list seems to be DLC :lol: It's about time we got weather and night racing, if FM6 didn't have this then it would be a flop I think... 450 cars sounds good, bearing in mind after all the DLC they'll release for it it could be getting on for 550+ cars by then which isn't too far off FM4.
