small variety of pics from the motorway

[Exige_240R]

on my trip to collect my new car, I snapped some shots from the passenger side of the van, its not many, but might be of interest to some of the non uk members.

A transporter with RangeRover Sport's on. This picture was really blurry, but i've tried to do a quik fix in photoshop, its not great, but it makes the image a little clearer

A petrol station stop revealed a Ferrari 348 Spider, but I couldnt get any closer because of using electronic equipment in a fuel station!

I snapped this in between 2 big trucks, if you look closely you can see a red 360 Spider to the right of the picture, and a Silver 575M inside the showroom, there were also lots of Porsches on the forecourt to the right

I also saw this VW Corrado, in very good condition, which seems quite rare here.

and the black car at the front is the Sport 2000 S, 0-60 in 3.2 secs, designed to compete with the Caterham

I also saw this 3000GT, which is only the 2nd time i've ever seen one, then later that day I saw another black one, i doubled my count in one day!

and to finish off the day, nearly home was a lovely sunset, shame my camera cant really show it...

and after today, all my pics will be marked, because some people in places dont believe some pictures are mine, just letting you all know in advance, they are mine, just with my name on in the future 8)

Thanks for the pics, just a friendly hint though - your pics could do with some editing in Photoshop (or something similar).
Here is the 348 pic - the left side is how you posted it and the right side I have edited quickly:

I really doubt it would be a problem, since a camera doesn't actually transmit any RF like a mobile phone for example. :wink: It certainly hasn't stopped me anyway - if I blow the place up who cares as long as I get my pictures. :P

my housemate has a beatiful silver 3000 GTO...!!! come to brighton have a look at it - it's worth it :wink: ... one day I'll ask him to take me somewhere to countryside and take "some" pics...

[Exige_240R]

thanks dingo for the hint, you are right, I do need to start editing the pictures, now I have more time on my hands I will, and stick a logo or something on them too.
and about the petrol station, there was a sign with a camera and a red line, but i think you're right, next time i'll get closer :wink:

Very nice sightings and good pictures, Exige_240R !! I love the 348 Spider sighting, thanks for the pics :)

[Herceg]

Thats a nice XTR4... is that thing street legal?!? lol great pics keep em up

[Exige_240R]

yes, it is street legal, it uses an Audi engine, and its very fast! its designed as a trackday car, but you can (if you're insane :P) drive it on the road!

[stmoritzer]

thanks for the pics, let me repeat dingo's hints, with small effort, the quality of the pics can be increased significantly (i.e. removing the grey shadow on the pics....)

I liked the sunset pic.
