Seen a fair few Porsche's around, a Lamborghini Murciélago round the corner from uni. There was an R8 hanging around the road I live in at uni for a while but it seems to have gone again. A friends of a friends dad has got an Aston, so seen that a few times. There's a Scooby that lives round the corner from me at home, and some people down the road have had loads of relatively decent cars, TT's, VX220's etc. Saw an absolutely gorgeous Mustang in Hemel about a month ago. Oh, and went past a MINI Cooper S JCW GP a fair while back

i can safely say that most have you have seen more than me, seen a fair few ferrari and lambos but the more common ones. i got raced off the lights not too long ago by a 575 with what i imagine was some sort of race exhaust, sounded epic.

the cul de sac i live in has got quite a few good cars but none like Burnard said. across the road they have a tvr cerbera and a holden monaro. our close/family friends have a a bmw m5 and 350BHP evo vii.

the evo is the fastest car i've ever been in. he got 140mph out of it on the road down the ower roundabout (if any of you know southampton/romsey area?)

what was the Gumpert like?



Gumpert was quite cool, perfect for me, and if i were to ever buy a super car, that is proberbly what i would buy, in black, with the 800bhp engine.

fastest i have been is about 150 in my uncles porsche, with a close second on my other uncles motor bike. (You wouldnt believe i hate roller coasters would you? >_< )

Forgot about my neighbouts monaro VXR, didnt think it was valuable enough to go on the list at only £30,000ish

saw a caterham R500 today. now thats what i would buy with £40k

I do go to the MPH show every year, and beauley occasionally, plus some other car shows, followed a mazerati MC12 into one.

think i got my perfect 4 car garrage now lol.

lol we can all dream. i forgot about the phantom drophead, i saw one of those driving down the street once, it looked like a barge. in a good way though. i wasn't really thinking 911's as there seems to be loads around our way, same with continental gt's. there is someone in a nearby village though who has a black and orange gt3 rs.

i can remember being at thruxton to watch the touring cars 10 years or so ago and there was a lambo diablo in the paddock

I’ve driven a Bentley continental GT if that counts :D was awesome

Chap down the road has a Noble M12.
Seen a Zonda at the ‘ring
Been in a GT3 at the’ring (was a bit fast)
The really fast Porsche was at the ‘ring and loads a Ferraris, oh and a fancy Merc Maclaren thing (you really should just go on the BH2N run!!)

last sunday i saw a whole convoy of super cars on the M6 in birmingham.

from what i remember there were;

2 gallardos
3 phantoms (never seen 1 on the road before)
2 continental gt's
1 R8
1 DB9

all of which i see fairly regularly except the phantoms. i've never seen a veyron or any rare super cars on the road though. never seen a convoy of super cars either!


it was a good drive on sunday. loads of unusual/interesting cars about. the effect of the nice weather.

saw a handful of hotrods, classic cars and some old school dubs.

just wish i knew more about the hotrods and classic cars. most looked really smart but i didnt know what they were.

We saw a whole host of nice cars down on the Dorset coast the other week, but I can't think what! >_<

Plus we saw someone from TV driving a beautiful Aston Martin DB9 a few weeks before that - won't give their name away, but it was a fabulous location, location, location! >_<

Seen a few Ferrari's and Lambo's driving around Leeds along with the usual R8's, Astons Porsches etc. to be honest the Astons and Audi's and Porsches etc seem to be becoming more "normal", I don't particularly take notice of them, I do of the ferraris though >_<

Supercars or hypercars?

Supercars, just get a train to london and sit down at a cafe

Hypercars, oh yes now were talking.

Saw a bugatti veyron (I think on dutch plates??) in the old kent road a couple of years ago, took a double glance and text me mate straightaway, when I got home and went on the forum (last car I had) someone had already put up a topic saying 'just seen this' it was the same one parked up in north london >_<

Saw yep another veyron (different colour) going by horsley station in surrey last year, I was sitting at the station (train driver) and I just happened to glance down at the road as I could hear something in the distance >_<
