*pic not quoted because I hate it when people do that*

The Swiss police are using these R's as umarked video cars. If you drive around in Switzerland and you see one of these in metallic silver, slow down. - Just a tip. I speak from experience. ;)

Greetings, lip

Fiat 124 Spider


Opel Manta B CC


Porsche 964


Two Volvo PV544, the first two of the same car, but the third is a different, I saw them 4 hours apart. Examining the second picture, I noticed the car has skull and crossbones on the roof apparently.
 
None of the Kadetts look as good as mine! :p
 
I love the howl of V8s in the morning.

Of course yours the most pweety Kadett :clarkson: in the world, but I thought the white one looked really excellent ... untill I saw the red/brown-ish interior ... but outside, White/black is a real winning exterior color combination for that generation Kadett IMO.

The white one's quite nice, but i don't like the clear indicators, which only turned up in the mid-to-late 80s and thus are not period correct on a 70s car.
 
Once again in the order of their awesomeness, and I missed two Bentley Continental GTs and a Corvette C6 since they were hiding behind traffic where I couldn't get one clear shot...

Peugeot RCZ


Mitsubishi Evo something


VW Type 3


Audi R8


Tesla in the underground carpark of a hotel, couldn't make more pics since some people were around who already gave me funny looks...

Don't you hate that? Everybody likes to act like a security guard... of course, if they were to witness a real crime, odds are they'd pretend they didn't see anything. :roll:

... well, to be fair "take pictures to post on a car-enthusiast-board" isn?t really a concept a lot of people understand or are familiar with - "take pictures to then show your car-thief friends" does seem more likley from their perspective ...

I got into a discussion with a "witness" once about the topic and the way the (quite big and strong looking) man adressed me, I got the impression my only way out of this without having my face pressed on the tarmac untill the police arrived was to boldly LIE. So I told him I loved the car and wanted something like that on my own on my car and wanted to show my girlfriend what she thought about it ... the picture ended up in the Carbage-thread ... but I ended up to go free, without having made sweet face/tarmac love ... long story short: taking pictures of other peoples property will make people supicious of you. Maybe less when it?s a Ferrari ... but more when it?s a VW Polo with an awful Body-kit ...
 
I guess some people take offense to it... personally, I'd be flattered, snap away.

When i photographed the beaten/carbaged Mitsu a guy came up to me and offered me to buy it. I said "no, thanks". He was like "well, you don't want to spend money on in, but you still photograph it?", to which i, in all honesty, replied: "It's so gloriously beaten. I would not want to own it, but it's certainly a special sight."
 
Does anyone know what this is. I've seen around near where I live a couple of times and I found it parked up in a car park. It looks a bit like the prototype KERS 599 but it's not that. It was proper matte green which looks amazing up close. Sorry I didn't get more pictures but I was picking someone up and didn't get time to get anything better. :rolleyes:

Hello,

Can you tell me how I can reach the owner of the Studebaker Deuce and a half pictured in the photo in section 750. It was at a local swap meet in 2010.

Thanks,

Kevin Schwartz
