Well yesterday I tried to go to Geneva since another car sighter living there spotted a nice Gemballa GTR650 parked where the Laguna Seca II was time ago... I hoped to find it there again

no lucky sadly.. and not many nice cars around, simply becuase it was a shitty day

(early morning too)..

But well, shitty weather doesn't always mean shitty cars only

Exactly, because near the place where I always park my car I just got a fucking XJ220! Now, this is a rare sight on the road (especially since it had German plates, so it was driven quite a few km!), but on a rainy day it is even more surrealistic! And what a nice color it was! Marvellous! Sadly the vallets (is this the word for the guys working at an Hotel, dressed in green in my pics?) in front of that Hotel didn't seem really friendly! They are used to see me around by now I guess, and I am sure they don't give a fuck if I take pics of the lake, the cars or ladies panties, but the cars beeing owned by customers that may be easily "offpissable"

, they probably prefer to act like that.. that's why I only got 4 pics and why a couple of them are kinda crap (I was too far away and there was not enough light for some proper shots w/o a tripod).. still worth the trip!

And considering today I got both a DB7 and an Elise, we can easily say that British weather drags out British cars

As always, click any of the pictures to be taken to the page with the whole set and the 1600x1200 versions

Let's start, in alphabetical order of course

Early morning today, luckily the sun managed to find a gap between the clouds to bless my pics with some nice light

And no idea why, that parking lot usually completely full of cars was deserted

only me and the DB7!

We will soon have the E60, the E39 is already pretty old, but the E34 is still fucking sexy as if it was released yesterday! This one is for sale

A sweet M3

Cute 328, another dude not scared to use his car when it is rainy!

And here is the highlight!

Halloween edition Elise Mk II

You can't go to Geneva and come back without at least a C4S picture I guess

Or Cayenne for that matter!

Well it is you living in Germany LOL.. I thought it was Köhln to tell you the truth, but really no idea. BTW, plates with that red part aren't temporary ones? (like on the white Maybach)

Darkel · 10-29-2004, 09:50 AM

Köln, not Köhln

But it's probably Koblenz because the letter K is for the biggest city with a name in K, and I don't think Koblenz is bigger than Köln

The BMW 5 is fantastic, I like that version more tha current M !

Impressive the XJ220 ! Lucky man

dingo · 10-29-2004, 10:22 AM

great pics again TT....sure was a great sighting the xj220, something I'm sure doesn't even exist in Oz.
BTW, vallet is the right word but its spelt with only one 'l' not two...."valet".

TT · 10-29-2004, 10:34 AM

Thanks dingo and Darkel for pointing out my mistakes

10-29-2004, 10:43 AM

Cool pics TT, nobody dared to park near that DB7 LOL And really great catch on that XJ220, does the back look odd to nayone else or is it just my eyes

Certainly caught the attention of that kid in the backgroud (or was it the mad person taking pics LOL) And what are you trying to say about British weather Matteo, it doesn't always rain.... much!!

**EDIT** HAHAHAHHAHA You got that new word you invented in

Of course I could call it Hawaiian weather or something else, but I suppose it could create a bit of confusion

"British weather" is an international dogma

Darkel · 10-29-2004, 11:05 AM

And it can also work when there's a lot of fog ... London's weather
