We all love the 575/550 design... but it's getting old. Even the rare Superamerica seems dated.

I disagree.

Still looks WAAAY better than 430 and 612. But hey, everybody has different taste.
 
Sadly only had my cameraphone with me...but I think this is pretty special! Parked in Uni of all places :shock: Looks simply stunning in the flesh. I never really liked it before, but having seen it today, it looks awesome.

that's one hell of a phone camera...
 
I highly doubt it's a student. My guess is that it's some guest lecturer for some subject (computer science possibly, as that department is nearby).

The phone is an Orange (HJC) SPV 550. 1.3Mpixels. It's OK, but a bit shite compared to what I'm used to :p Does the job I guess though :)

Yeah. It's not fantastic. It's better than some, but I wanted the K750i but Orange were going to charge me ?80 for it to upgrade because I'm a 'low end user' apparently! Basically it means I don't go over my monthly free minutes much and spend as little as possible :p
 
Today was a good day for car spotting!

I'd not seen anything interesting for a while, and wasn't sure what this first one was. Looked a bit like a Daihatsu Copen, had it been designed 10 years ago.

Actually, that's a lie. It looks like a wheeled jellybean.

It's a Nissan Figaro.

Can't imagine driving it with a straight look on my face. Yes, that's me in the shadow on the first one.

Then, crossing at the lights headed home - bingo! It's a 4-litre TVR Chimaera, according to the badge on the back.

Hello there! Why is the roof not down, on this most sunny of days?

I live in hope of one day spotting a Sagaris, but anyone who takes a Sagaris into the city centre is a pillock, to be honest, with the potholes and low spoiler.

This more than made up for having a fairly lousy car seeing week.

But then, the killer blow :

Had to dodge in and out of traffic, risking life and limb for you lot! [Ok, maybe dodging loads of barely-moving buses]

This is the second Phantom I've seen, the first I only glimpsed. Got a nice long look at this one! It's full of great touches - the centre of the rims for example stay stationary, and don't spin. I'm sure you knew that though.

To be honest, though, I'm not keen on the back end. It's far too similar to both RRs of the past and Bentley saloons. They made a big impact and modernisation of the rest of the car, why not there?

And my favourite photo of the day, because it's unnecessecarily arty :

thats a nissan? cool...one of them recently moved into my street and i could never figure out what brand it was. it said figaro, but i couldn't identify the brand (or i thought figaro was the brand;)).

here is 'mine', shot from my window:

Shouldn't it be a Datsun if it's that old? Or maybe it's one of these crazy modern retro Japanese contraptions.
