This deserves to be on this thread:

Thats just such a classic. I was just soooo gutted when I found out it was a set up and that the film car was a Volvo estate and that the film had been sped up. Its still a 250GTO to me 

[hectic]

Yeah shame, but its soooo chic non? I like the last scene at the Sacre Coeur.

PERFECT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ferrari 250GT SWB Berlinetta.

Yes… YES!.. 250 GTO is so beautiful... Man I could post cars all day... Some real nice'uns in here already...

Just to proof that not only old cars are nice:

And simple but raw as fuck:

That Alfa is GERGEOUS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hectic]

The Veyron is so outlandishly capable. Did you see that vmax run they did with the new version on Top Gear - 420kmh!!

[Seul]

Saw the ep - didn't the test driver (not May) go a lot faster on average?.. 440 - 450?.. I should re-watch that bit…

[hectic]

Oh, yeah, you're right. Still, 400+ is always going to be hallucinogenically fast.

Crazy Germans !

Went to see my friend today who builds hot rods. Here are the two he has on build at the moment. I really really want the 56 Chevy Stepside  . This baby has had a full nut and bolt rebuild with subtle mods: dropped 6" tunned engine, uprated brakes etc, the guy is a perfectionist, its awesome. He's going to want big £££ when finished which counts me out unfortunately 

[Giles]

So what are big bucks?

[Simon]

Something along the lines of £15-£20k ish. He's got a shoot for one of the Hot Rod Mags set up which should bring in the buyers he thinks.

Ronald: so you want the Nissan GT-R hu?.. ARE YOU MARRIED?.. 

[hectic]

Went looking for a new(used) car today, its a while since I did viewings of cars that are for sale privately. I forgotten what lying fantasists people are, to paraphrease Gertrud Stein: "A shed is a shed is a shed"-(not an immaculate example of)….

meh

[Giles]

We've decided to buy new for the Landy's partner.

and quite frankly at £3,000 it has to be done
