I love the states but big ass 22" rims are forking terrible.
Yeh they love their chrome wheels, especially the Afro-Americans, there seems to be some sort of "space race" of who can lift their car higher of the ground :eek: I just had to put the picture up to add "variety" to thread
I know I know, the comment was more about how Americans love their big cars (and petrol is more than half the price), Imagine on of these Tundras trying to fit on the Irish roads :eek:, you'll get plenty of respect driving that! otherwise you just drive over em :PEhhh....... it's Japanese actually
.
Anyways ill try find more pics0 -

I think these were primitive versions of steam rollers but I could be completely wrong.
I think it was some charity event, I seen it on way up but didn't take photo (it was very very slow) took one on way back few days later it was few km farther up the road, more of these "cars" here

When i'm back to hotel i was chilled. And if anyone of you is going there for spotting - there is no Agera R, no Pagani Cinque, only 2 Xenatec Maybach 57SC ( because owner of this cars (one owner who own also Mulsane) gone yesterday. But in few days there will be Blue Koenigsegg CCXR (it was in london last year) bu ti have to say i'm happy with my spotting, i expect few more cars but there was 20 car which i saw for the very first time on street. Now turn the page up and enjoy photos
I can only imagine the amount of time and effort you've put into taking all the pictures you've shown us (and I'm sure you've plenty more that you haven't put up here too). I think every poster on the motors forum is extremely appreciative of the work you've done! Thank you for sharing them with us.
You're pictures are just amazing, the angles you get some of the cars at are brilliant and the quality of every picture is brilliant!
I'm sure someone has already asked you but what camera and lens are you using?0 -

Sorry to be pedantic but wrong too - Steam engines such as this were used for many purposes and preceeded both tractors and generators really. Main uses were belt driving of threshers (separating wheat and chaff) or electric genarators at fairs. Also used commonly in pairs for ploughing. Amazing collections in the UK - Glynns in Carlow (pictured) have some of the best in Ireland. Sorry, one of my hobbies is vintage tractors:o0 -

Its a super sport

Shane732 Thank you one more time
The car spotting is my hobby and i'm not professional photographer so this what you said is nice to me
I'm using only Sony alpha 350 with standard lens but i think is enough for now
diegowhite Black Veyron is a SuperSport - the strongest version of Veyrons it has 1200HP instead of 1001HP and it's faster.
There was 4 Veyrons in London (I mean i saw 4):
- Veyron SuperSport
- Veyron GrandSport (the white one is convertible one but there was no chance to take the roof out - welcome in england with english weather)
- 2x "normal" Veyron (red one and white-chrome which was driving with bodyguards in Panamera Hamann Guardian)
- there was also another GrandSport but it was in some showroom too far for me to go
What about SLS Fab Design: in my opinion that car would be look brilliant if we will take of that back spoiler. I was thinking i won't be like this car but when i saw it for the first time it was nice. And i saw the owner of white one and he was about 20 years old. When i saw how he was closing the boot i knew he is an "idiot".
Range Stormer - i didn't know the car like that is exist - i saw it on my last day when i saw Panamera Hamann for the 1st time, they were parked together.
For me the best cars were Koenigsegg Agera R and Pagani Zonda Cinque (only 5 ever made - this was number 5) because they were parked together so i could take nice photos (combos) but the best photos are the photos of chrome Brabus SLR, i took them after heavy rain when was some sun for 2 minutes.
Blue 599 has also 1000HP.
And at the end of my post something about Bristol... this was a big luck i saw it. I was walking around London with my friend and we saw something orange in garage. I didn't know what car is that. He told me is a Bristol and it's very rare car (few other spotters were jealous we saw that and we didn't told where was that because we didn't know where we were). And we can't see whole car on the photo but I still like photo of it. That car is fit into garage in opposite what bijapos said. My friend told me that on the next day car was hide into garage so it has to fit there. And this is why I feel lucky - I spot the moment when the garage was half open.
If you want to see some more photos just let me know but i think i have only potos of this cars which I posted. I have few more photos of Lamborhinis, Aston Martins, Ferraris and Porsches rest is on the photo on last page.
Sorry for post with no photos. 0 -

Marc, that Bristol is a Fighter, but I'm positive its the Fighter T of which only a handful were made. I think it was their promotion/launch car a few years back but I could well wrong. If so its got a claimed 1012bhpfrom a twin turbo Viper engine, there is a bit more on it here.
I think thats the second time you put up a photo of a Zonda Cinque, I think you got one in Monaco too, so thats 40% of the worlds supply of Zonda Cinques that you've photographed. Nice going. 0
