NLC: Unusual Spots
Re: NLC: Unusual Spots
Passed a yellow Porsche 918 at Loch Lomond yesterday, first of the new generation of hypercars I've seen in the metal. Looked quite chunky, bulkier than I would have thought.

Looks great Ross, all the boxes nowadays look the same.
tut
ps:- turn the clock back and I would probably look at a good nick Pug 205 1.9GTi again, strip it down and renew suspension etc, give it a mild tune, loved that car.

Oof Ross that's class
Takes me back to the LNA's cousin which I had, to save for my TVR, a turd-brown Talbot Samba - same dash and doors IIRC. 954cc, lovely free-revving thing which could be hurled around like mad
