Having seen a couple of rare road cars recently, I thought it'd be interesting to start off a thread where people can post up some pictures of them. Its not always possible to get a photo but i've seen a few rare cars, admittedly some of them are owned by people i know but still a rare sight.

So, road cars that are registered and spotted on the road, not a track!

Ferrari F40 (in Reading)



Shelby GT500 (a mates, fresh from the states and now in Sheffield!)



Radical (with my S, never seen another on the road!)



TVR Sagaris (only seen 2 on the road, this a mates, getting pulled by mounted police!)



Lotus Esprit V8 (still avery rare sight, again this is a mates)



Saw an XJ220 the other week driving through Chatsworth, wasnt quick enough to get a picture but couldnt believe how wide it was!!

Hmmm, that F40 doesn't look quite right. The shoulder seems too square. Could just be the angle.

Back in my last job, there was somebody with an Esprit, and more suprisingly, somebody with a TR7.

Is that an XJS in the background of the F40 pic? Those are rare enough too.

S2000Si

1938 Le Mans winning Delahaye..



oh all right.. i saw it in the car park at Le mans

Lets keep it to ones on the road if we can! Pictures on the track/or events car park will open up many more but its interesting to see stuff thats actually driving around!

Must just be the angle, it was certainly a genuine F40, with reg to match. Looked awesome sat in traffic amongst the regular cars.

And yes, that is an XJS, never spotted that to be honest!

TRW

I saw a Pagani Zonda outside the chinese in Burford a while back, will post the picture a bit later when I get a minute.

S2000Si

In my defence it had been driven there and was being driven home afterwards.. and not a museum piece..

but not actually on the road when i saw it so i bow to the

JimUK

I guess that counts then!!

Never seen a Zonda out on the road, the guy who owns evo magazine has a tasty looking one, bet they attract so much attention! Saw a Carrera GT and Ford GT in Sheffield a while back but not chance of a picture but both were a rare sight!
