That really surprises me. Looking at it up close I had to assume it was a very well made, but essentially one-off (or very low volume) rebody of something like a fourtrak, intended to lighten and provide better articulation for off-roading.
It looked very tidily done, but not production standard.

Triumph TR8
Spotted a Very nice Blue Triumph TR8 At the Moor Farm Roundabout petrol station had a lovely low rumble from the V8, exchanged a Nod of approval with the driver.
I was the scruffy looking guy in the black hoodie as had just came from my mates garage.

Completely cheating as spotted this on Instagram, however, thought I'd post it here as how many of us would even know what it was if we saw one? Brazilian, apparently produced 47 in 11 years and built by a Porsche dealer after imports were restricted - Dacon 828.

Wouldn't say no to either, would change the Mk2 alloys though - Didn't even know they did a 2 door... What is it about the ae86 that makes it so damn cool?

Can I play? Thought an american take on "Ürotuning" might be interesting to some...

On Sunday, whilst driving around in my wife's thoroughly modern shopping box (a Skoda Yeti) I saw in the space of 1 mile a bronze Mk3 Cortina heading one way and a brown Mk4 further down the road going in another direction.
I did what I always do when I see another old car on the road... I flash my lights and/or wave in the spirit of camaraderie, and only afterwards do I remember I'm sat in a modern car and therefore I'm completely invisible.

Of course you can = ) Do you get much of this kind of thing over there? Whereabouts did you spot this one BTW?

There was a BMW 3-series coupe that had seen a lot of attention in that same spot yesterday, and it can't have been the same owner as the Audi was elsewhere in the parking lot. I'll shoot that when I see it again. This was in a parking lot at Vanderbilt University here in Nashville. Perhaps more in keeping with the intent of the thread: From that same parking lot, interestingly enough. And on the road a few miles distant:

Me too, I love the bit on 'Counting cars' when Danny goes looking for stuff to buy, all that retro tin! Don't care if its fixed.

Erm, it's a Fairlane, actually... From today's school run (which is admittedly rather long) An LTD and a couple of caddys at a car lot: (apologies for the framing on this one, my 12 year old was manning the camera) And a special treat sitting next door: A new Roush An old C10, partially obscured A '75 Stutz Bearcat (the fence ruins this one, sorry about that) And a terrible shot of a 73-77 F100 One of the reasons I frequent this site is because the cars you see every day are unique and different to me, so if there's anything in particular you'd like me to keep an eye out for, just ask.

Nice and subtly modified E30 spot this morning. I’m not normally a fan of the pre-1973 plates on newer cars but for me it works on this because it gives a modified in the 90s flavour to it.

Stopped at the Mercedes dealer for a couple clips, found these beauties inside. Out back and more to my speed was this bashed V12 R129
