Other Random Car Sightings [Photo Required]

^ It's most likely a Victorian law (the state the car's in). Having said that I've seen LHD cars with no stickers, so I'm not sure what the full story is. When I was at Holden generally the LHD cars would also run 'Engineering Evaluation Vehicle' stickers along with the LHD ones - my guess is that was tied to them having a special registration due to their status as development vehicles.

I had a LHD Monaro for a week once - if you want to attract attention in traffic here, that's the way to do it. Lost count of the number of cars tailgating me.

I'm tempted to use the contacts another ex-Holden mate of mine has there to find out who had the car at the time, to let them know they can't park for shit (especially when the driver's on the kerb side)...

Edit: Ah, here we go:

All other left hand drive vehicles (vehicles over 30 years old weighing less then 4.5 tonnes are exempt) may not be registered in Victoria except in the cases of:-

(a) vehicles approved by the Vehicle Safety Branch for registration as Engineering or Market Evaluation Vehicles;
(b) vehicles primarily built for a special purpose that have to be left hand drive or dual control to fulfil that purpose;

In the case of a left hand drive vehicle being one described in (a) or (b) the words "Left Hand Drive" must be clearly and legibly displayed in letters at least 75mm high and of proportionate width on the rear of the vehicle

The Ford is so gorgeous... best looking car on this page.

I would kill for one in white with blue stripes.
 
A few pictures from a local car show last Saturday. I went 2 years ago and it was disappointing however, the word must have gotten out because there were some pretty good looking cars this time. Few of what I thought were the best.

I think it is the lighting plus my not-so-great camera that makes it look slightly pink. :p

That GranTurismo, does a teacher own that or what?

I have friends in Singapore, what part is this?
Click to expand...

Nope, not owned by a teacher, but owned by my Scout junior's parents who are active in major school events and board meetings, or so I think ;)

It's at the east, near East Coast Park (a beach), at Katong.

To think of it that I've never even heard or seen a Ford GT move an inch before... :p

I've seen Gran Turismos in ash grey, Ferrari red, shiny black, and this blu-ish purple. So far, the blue-purple looks best but is getting far too common. I'm now aiting for a chav to buy it in yellow! :p
 
Seen this week in Tenero, Switzerland:

360 Challenge Stradale. Parked up diagonally. ;)

Those two were funny. They came up while I was taking these photos and because of that they thought I was the owner. Instantly they started to compliment me for having such a fancy motor like this before I was able to correct them. :lol:

Greetings, lip
 
Are you certain that's a Challenge Stradale? Looks like a normal 360 to me...
 
"Just" a standard 360, wrong frontspoiler, mirrors, etc.



Is it just me or does the 360 look incredibly outdated (very 90's) in certain shots/angles and absolutely fantastic and up-to-date in some others.


edit: "challenge stradale" is seriously written on the back... borderline carbage.
 
Yeah, it's a fake lol.

But the 360 still looks modern in every shot to me. ;)
