Pardon the pic quality, poor lighting in the garage (my pic but not my ST, unfortunately...)

I know, poor light makes poor shots, but last Sunday I had the chance to (finally) join up for a small GTG fittingly called "Coffee and Cars".
About 100 enthusiast cars ranging from a NSU1000TT to modern day Ferraris. I got to park my humble Lotus Elise in front of the "world sexiest bonnet" aka Jaguar E-Type.

Well not a friday, but the last "Sunday - Coffee & Cars" event for the season kicked off, and I brought my "proper" camera.
Put the hardtop on the Elise as well. FIrst time in 6 years. Just wanted to try it out.
A selection of what was on display😀
Cheers!

What's not to like here?

Can you please refresh my memory and remind me what is the silver beast parked next to your blue lightweight beauty please? The moment you say it, I will slap my forehead and say "of course, I knew it..." 😀

Thanks!
Paul

( please don't make fun of my new gloves - I just couldn't resist when i saw the color and the Price 😁)

Weekend of driving in Sweden.
Found some interesting scenery!
😀


BTW: There is a reason why the rims are not clean.....😗 Swedish countryside roads are really made for lightweight cars.
