View Full Version : Your car spots!
I thought it would be a cool idea to have one thread where every member can posts pics of cars he spotted in his neighbourhood or during his holiday, like exoticspotter.com and autogespot.com but only for Ultimatecarpage members :D
I spotted a Maybach today, and behind the gate at the neighbours there is a Mercedes S600:

Theres already been atleast 2 threads like this before. You'd also better use the attachment system before the mods take action.

Hmm I was looking for older threads but couldn't find them :confused:
Must be very old... And I didn't know linking to images was forbidden? This is way easier to upload lot's of pics then to attach them piece by piece...
Here are some more spots btw:

I saw 4 Bentley Continental GTs the other day, nothing to do with commuting along part of their unofficail test circuit (I live near the factory.)
Also I saw a Murciolago today. Must have been horrible being taken over by someone on foot.
Oh, and I see several newish M3s some people are using as daily drives.
I live in a weird town, all of the people who live here are working class, yet people who drive into the town from elsewhere are loaded.

My dad's friend owns a Porsche GT3, Mercedes CLK320 and a Jaguar XJR. Another family owns a M3 and X5.
My area is nice for spotting expensive cars.
PS I saw a Mclaren F1 today it looked a bit ugly because it was in a dark puprle colour. I think it was Mr Bean's (Rowan Atkinson) because he lives in the same city as me.

there is an old Rolls Royce in my neighbourhood. the owner just left it there. its been standing there for years and is in a very bad condition. someone put bricks behind the bricks to stop it from rolling off from its place.

oh well, he's a newbie, he didn't know better, go easy.
and I wouldn't out anything past the fast that the McLaren could be Rowan's, because he has a collection of fast cars, evern though I imagined him driving a Aston Martin around town.

Ok, some way to upload more then 5 files to a post by just bulk selecting the images on my computer?

I've seen loads of nice cars in my new domain around Bournemouth.
A very loud Murcielago, DB9, lots of dull Merc and Porsche Poser-mobiles.
I'm enjoying the large ammounts of Trevors that have been out enjoying the sunshine most of all.
I also mentioned in another thread that i saw Nick Mason driving his McLaren F1 GTR down to Goodwood.
Impeccable lane discipline, and example to everyone else on the road at the time.

Coventrysucks
07-13-2005, 05:59 PM
Yes, for a few miles untill we had to turn off.
We were directly behind him for a couple of miles - completely by chance rather than design.
Which was nice.
I think he was sticking to the speed limit as he was probably keeping an eye on whatever expensive piece of kit from his fleet was in the Ten Tenths "Race Shuttle" that was also headed for Goodwood.

Two new Dodge Viper SRT-10's in the area, saw the local SLR again for the first time in 2 months or so, F355 on the highway, 1978 Corvette with the L82 Indy engine, Bentley Continental GT, the Lingenfelter C5 427TT that I haven't seen in a looooong time.....can't remember what else at the moment.

Not much compared to the incovenient it could bring to others if they were in-line. What would you do with those 2 minutes? Change the world? Find a girl and build a family? :D:D:D
Sometimes it may take a bit of time, it's true. But it's for the well being of all UCP visitors. Everyone will aprecciate. ;)
