When was that?

Can’t remember exactly but a few weeks ago on a day trip to London. Could of been a couple of months

I’ve never seen one before.

You may well be right Mr Duck, it was a very long time ago.

Beautiful looking example you have there. Pointed question therefore,,,, : How is yours immunised from the same sort of issue??? (or did they address the corrosion problem on later versions).
I seem to recall being told at the time by someone "in the know" that the metal they were made from was literally steel from re-cycled washing machines.

Not sure what’s going on with the reg plate but what a car. The old Doris ain’t too bad either.

It was a left hooker outside The Corinthian.

She was a hooker.?
Begs the question, how you would even know that.!

Ok so I didnt see it in person but I watched Harry’s Garage Silverstone classic auction episode and was blown away to see a Bricklin. I had a Corgi one when I was a kid but I’d never actually seen a road going one. Some amazing cars and some unbelievably low mileage ones too. Check out the XJS HE Cab at the end that the owner never actually got around registering it but has covered 101 miles on his drive . Well worth a watch

Visitor next door today. Never seen one of these before. Not a fan of Range Rovers etc. personally but must say that back end looks purposeful

Like others I had never heard of this version let alone seen one until you posted your pics, then I see one here in Dubai, only difference I can see is that both the R and S are in red on this one, no idea if that is significant or not

Pretty sure the Bricklin didn’t sell. Saw it at Goodwood a couple of years ago, and follow its owner on Twitter, so of course feels like I know him

It seems like we keep spotting the same cars!
I think I've mentioned it here before that I've seen this Porsche in West London

A Ford GT near The Dorchester in Park Lane.

I’ll get a photo tomorrow.

A lovely Red/White Nash Metropolitan on Gumby roundabout, going towards Skegvegas. Driving and last minute spot so no pics, sorry.
