I was in London at the weekend, coming out of Claridges hotel and there was an exotic car fest, before me. A Ferrari 575M, 2 x F430's, DB9, but the biggest treat of all was this:

Porsche Carrera GT with matching reg plate

Gatster

More older Ferrari on M1-M50 slip...

That's an Isuzu Gemini alright, they're a fairly rare car on the roads these days.

They had a good TV ad back in the 80's, worth a look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GveDVITQ5H4

ZENER - you should post in over in the "Today I saw a Classic and took a Pic" thread also.

The parking spaces are very tight in that multi-storey especially for all the Range Rovers in Block A.

(I saw that Ferrari parked in a different spot last week - pic in post #3012).

Didn't know it existed, I'll check it out and link to this one.

Block A in the airport is the best place to see the expensive motors - Bentley, Ferrari, Porche etc. The valeting company is based there.

Last night there were no fewer than 7 BMW near the entrance of this block and I'm talking about lowly 3 and 5 series either, there were several 630i and a couple of 750 (I think) as well. But they're 10 a penny now so no-one bats an eye at them.

There's a few Aston's and Masseratis in there regularly also. The executive car park also has some nice motors among the very 'ordinary' models.

.............nice car, same as my own (though mine has a black roof). Its not the one I thought it was, that particular car is actually a 230SL badged as a 280, identifiable by its 2 pce wheel trims, different side mirror, ignition switch and interior door lock switch. It also has 280SL rear lamps !

Sweet though, and it looks in great shape !

Where's the executive car park and how do you park there? Also do the cars get valeted and left in a when you go on a holiday? Whenever i go up A is always closed!

It's in the corner of the arrivals road just past the Dublin Bus stops under the down ramp from departures.

Using the steering wheel of your car. Sorry, couldn't resist. I'm open to correction on this - I think you pay an annual fee as opposed to each time you use it. It used to be £5,000+VAT annually.

If you wish.

It appears to be closed but that is to encourage motorists to move further in.


ZENER may have better knowledge. I think he works for DAA car parks.

Saw the merc behind alright, but was busy looking at the ramps on the trailer in front and worrying they might fall.... :eek:
