Our Cars (dream or actual)

@ARNC it is interesting how design/art transcends time. Prior periods frequently outclasses today. I love that. Means we need to respect the past.

The Mercedes, hands down

It's an annual event, over three days, at Hampton Court Palace @motojobobo. It's worth checking out if you are in London town that time of year.

@Bridger Most people think I’m bullshitting when I say this but my Dad owned a Ferrari Dino. It was his project car that never came to fruition unfortunately. Here’s a nice photo he took just before he finally sold it.

Saw this beauty en route to the airport.
Never seen one in the states before.

Very cool @WithBongInHand

Have been a car guy when I was younger, driving a couple of modified hondas but actually drove mostly company Cars for the last 10 years. When I switched into a new Job I had to get the first own car in a decade and decided to buy a cheap shitbox polo which was okay for the time being but it did not pass the TÜV (MOT test) and I took this as an opportunity to buy something cooler. Wanted a car that is reliable, fun to drive and practical for daily use, vacations etc

Picked up a Seat Leon ST Cupra 300 yesterday

@FlavourFade Hi fellow Leon owner.

@Anesthetist Lotus 7 replicas are pretty common here, there's an industry around them.

They're probably the middle ground between a motorbike and a car, they are very light and therefore pretty quick whatever engine you fit - and anything from a Ford crossflow to a V8 has been fitted.

After many years of having this much loved car a 2011 Cadillac DTS, with only 63,000 miles.

I regretfully traded it in today for a 2026 Cadillac XT5
