Black Ferrari California just passed me on the Grange Road in Rathfarnham, looked brand new on UK plates (started with "LC12" or something similar). Have to admit I've never been the biggest fan of them but this one looked and sounded absolutely awesome.

Yesterday spotted a black '11D VW Golf R and a black '12D BMW 1M Coupe. Good to see people are still buying performance cars.

Yup! Only one space left in the whole area and it managed to be beside it!

That Mercedes SLS is the spot of the year. Described by Clarkson as the best car in the world.

Apologies for chat, but saw a show on Channel 4 the other night entitled 'Millionaire boy racers' and it covered the Gulf supercar invasion of London every summer. Had me drooling for 40 mins over some of the cars shown.

It even showcased the car spotter side of things. Worth a look

Here is what i saw on Sunday 06.01.2013 - my first 2013 photos. It's Cars & Coffee in Cherrywood Business Park. When i was driving there i spot marked Garda car in front of me so i slow down to the speed they were driving with. I start driving at the same speed as they but i still keep distance between us. They were driving 140km/h where speed limit is 100km/h. Well done Garda, breaking speed limits, driving on right line when left one is empty and everything with no singals what mean they are normal car. I was driving with the same speed as they if they were slowed done i did the same to keep distance between us and don't let them to stop me but i was changing the line to right one if that was empty. Then we go on the road where speed limit is 60km/h. Start with 90km/h and slow down to 70km/h. I did exactly the same driving beside them. I'm 99% sure they wanted to stop me behind roundabout but they drive straight and i turn right. I won't forget their face when i was turning right.

Now something about meeting. There was few nice cars and many photographers so i'm surprised that there is no photos here yet. Hard to choose the car of the day. I would choose between: Jaguar E-Type V12, AC Cobra with 6.3 litre chrome engine and Audi R8. Can't forget about my possible to fulfillment dream - an SL55 AMG. One day. I missed few cars like GT-R and BMW M5 because i had to leave earlier to go to work. Nice surprise for me was two lads who were taking photos of my car when i was driving away. I could feel like one of that mans who drive by Lamborghini's and Ferrari's haha

Now photos: but don't forget that i still don't know how to use that camera properly...

Good to see you starting 2013 with a bang Marcinek!

The red Firebird and Cobra look stunning!

Though if I had to pick one for myself it'd be the understated RS4 all day long

Funny. I'm even in one of Marcinek's pictures

A few more from the day

Under the bonnet of the E-Type

The interior of the Cobra

Really superb car. As near to the original as it gets.

One of the first of the silly number-plates

Volvo P1800

Under the bonnet of the Lancia Fulvia

The Candy Apple Pontiac Firebird is something else alright
