I know they're a fantastic car but the R8 does nothing for me.

Certainly doesn't look like a 100k supercar, which puts me off.

I've always felt the same.
The specs are amazing but it's just too... Clinical? Very German but not in a good way.

My uncle's Citroen 2CV. Love the colour scheme - I think it's some special edition

I've always felt the same about the McLaren MP4 always look at it and kinda go meh even though it does sound fantastic.

The P1 now that looks brilliant imo.

Yeah that's a othe guilty member, one for the engineering students but shunned by those with soul.

Its cousin the Gallardo looks so much better.

Well that's the idea really..the V10 R8 is basically a rebodied Gallardo for a lot less money. You're paying a hefty premium for the badge/design.

I always thought the MP4 looked and sounded terrible tbh.

Speedway

(Apologies for the horrendous quality phone pictures, not sure what happened)

Spotted this in Stockholm. Had never seen one before and I hope I never do again, horrible car to be associated with the Aston Martin badge for the sake of tax reduction.

Also note the startled guy in the car who seemed surprised I was taking pictures of his happy meal aston martin





Have to say it reminds me of this:

Brilliant pictures especially the RS4.

A rare one earlier, a UK reg Audi A1 quattro drove past me in Donnybrook. Couldn't nab a pic though.

256 bhp, over 40k GBP and only 17 brought to the UK (I think).

Maybe one of the rest of you can spot it again! It's white but the boot lid is black, big multi spoke alloys on it.

I don't think so - the wheels were pointing down on this one.

That was a good day for spotting on Tallaght... First i saw black Bentley Flying Spur probably 06-WW or 06-D, few minutes later english registered black Mercedes E63 AMG (his photos are few pages back) both on Greenhills Road, no photos as i was in the gym and finally when i was driving home i saw black Maserati Gran Turismo 08-D-51700 on the road where Ulster Bank is. Sound of this car is amazing. Unfortunately no photos of any of them I promise that tomorrow i'll post some photos of supercars spoted on Irish road. I can only say it will probably be red and it will be spot tomorrow

Fun day today. I went to pick up my car after having a few bits done to it and this was in the garage having the last few bits of its kit





Fur cost and no knickers though. It's the V6 diesel with no sexy oily bits. And it's a commercial too!

If they are aftermarket kahn leds on the bumper they look crap.

Photos don't do them justice. Looked the part in real life.

Kind of reminds of the Nissan Navara.
