Minivans have a habit of gaining respect... Let's just think about VW Camper with a Porsche flat 6 engine... I will take you up on your offer if I ever venture out to your neck of the woods..

WTF is that black car in the background!?!?! It's hideous! It looks like a minivan stuffed itself up an Acura sedan's ass, but didn't quite fit.

Edit: Forgot you don't have Acura. I mean expensive Honda.

I think it is a Honda Accord Estate.. I suppose looking at it in context any car will look ugly.

The Lady Washington cruised past on Wednesday, wrong day though.
It's been in a number of pirate moves.

White Audi R8 went past as I was pulling out of my driveway this morning.
Was going to to take pictures of my new Domo kite.

^^^^ Seems like this car may have more in common with Ferris' motor. I was checking the license plate as it's so distinctive but nothing is coming up on our vehicle registration websites^^^^^

Idk how it works in the UK, but in the US the only way you can find registration info is if the vehicle were involved in a crime with a public record.

Checking if the car is taxed etc is easy.. nothing coming up for the plate that the car is wearing.. as if it's wearing a show plate..

Dodge Viper x2, original Acura NSX, Alfa 4C, buncha modded WRX from various years, and I think a Civic type R, and a few SI's. Then again, I'm pretty sure a meet/car show just ended and I saw everyone on their way out/home, BUT IT STILL COUNTS.

Also up in NH with future in-laws.

Edit: +1 Evo10

This gem has been seen pootling about my neighborhood on a Sunday but I'm never quick with my camera to take a pic!! Yesterday (Saturday) it was parked outside our local Bookie!!

The "supercar" of the 80's looks so dainty now but still a delight to see one in such good nick..

Should actually go under the 'Ricer...' thread as it's a great candidate but as it was spotted this morning it's parked here.. no idea what the owner thought when he plonked his take of an electrical pylon on the boot of his car...
