·E36 looked like it had been languishing in streets for a while. And then there was a modern day Mary Kaye inspired 997 to shock passers by. Both in NYC.
Classic car spotting this week.

·Just seen in Düsseldorf/Germany a car coming from Dubai (on wheels?), a rare seen
Bugatti Chiron Supersport "Vagues de Lumière"
(8l, 16 cyl. W-shape motor, 1600 HP, 440 km/h max speed, ~4 mio€)
https://share.google/M57LzzAud878JVqL9
(Its not from the Backstreet Boys, they are just in Town in the same hotel.)
Maybe a Sheik is visiting his Doctor at the Königsallee, they often do with their whole family crowding the luxury shops around with private appointments.
I would not wonder, if they have a car compartment in their jetplane.

·It's an Aston Martin DB2/4. When I was a kid there was a lady driving one close to home that I saw regularly. She lived here: Rushall Hall
Also seen regularly 60 years later was that "GT40", seen around Newmarket. I think it was a replica, but a damn good one. I'm sure it has featured in this thread 6 or 7 years ago.

·Out yesterday for a monthly catch-up with fellow VCC members.
Was particularly amused/ intrigued by these 2 almost identical fitted out Essex's with consecutive personalized number plates in concourse condition one a 1928 and the other 1929, different velour colour upholstery and interiors but just beautifully restored.

·Just spotted this car yesterday in the local VAR ( Vintage Austin Register) magazine which arrived at my letter box yesterday, lovely looking car thoughts I, flicked to the back page only to find it featured in a small black and white photo with contact details for enquiry to buy. A drive in the county this morning and some long conversations and some thinking followed by a phone call later in the afternoon, price negotiated and deposit paid!
A nice modern 1934 Austin 18/6 Berkley.

Still miss my evoII. When it was working perfectly, nothing felt like it.
But don't miss the constant bills just to keep on top of it, especially welding to repair cracking and splits in the shell rather than rust (that came along soon after....)

·Definitely a redial, was fully restored in 1992 and the colour changed.
Comes complete with full history, both ownership from new (1934) and work done, photos etc.
The car has a relatively rare sunroof option where the sunroof slides back 40 to 50% of the roof, no leaks! the white / chrome dots you see in the photo on the roof edges are the roof gutter water outlets, very cool system.
Very well appointed interiors in these cars with picnic style seat trays / tables arm rest etc. Austin competed back in the day with RR, Bentley etc at the top end of their cars for well to do owners and while this one was not a limousine or landaulet they gave little away interms of quality and comfort.

Nothing beats a 3 door on some (what appear to be) 16x9 RS's.
And of course all the fun extras you CAN'T see.
Well done!

·Love a good Harley as well.
But it would have to have a VR6 swap...
And I'd swap out those 1pc Ronal Teddys for a milti piece conversion!
