Have You Seen Any Interesting Cars On The Road Lately?

Spotted one of those new-ish Ineos Grenadiers on the motorway tonight, oft likened to the original Defender. First time I have seen one on the road.

That's one that's passed me by; looking at the website though I see they use the BMW B58 engine /ZF 8 speed autobox combo.
 
Seen in Preston today. Aren't those American bumpers horrible! Looked in very good condition

I saw this in the City back in June. I never knew Bentley had even made quite a few of these back in the early 50's

It's one of those "If you have to ask the price..." ones :eek:
Blooming lovely things. You can see where some of the inspritation comes from for the VW era Continental GT models.

Was that at The Honourable Artillery Company?
 
Did a shedload of lead there in summer 95. Baking hot summer.
Beautiful building.

I worked on the tower block over the back of it just before lockdown as well, it was mental watching the big helicopters landing and taking off from there.

Chinooks, I see them all the time. Loads of good place around the area to get a pint. That's the beauty of working in the city.
 
Coming home from work this evening I just met this, on our country lane. They had the good manners to pull into the passing space, so that we could both pass with ease. (I only wish the cyclists that usually share our lane could be so amenable)

Yes I posted on both sites so the widest community could offer an opinion....seems like its a no no from everyone currently!
 
To new fair most on this very conservative (small c) forum think that putting air in the tyres, not freshly imported from Germany, is a modification to far!....so I'm not surprised no one likes it!
