NLC: Unusual Spots

Post by colintinto » Thu Mar 17, 2011 11:01 pm

There's an odd wee car I've seen around Stirling and Dunblane, and I can't figure out what it is.

Very short, like a squashed up 340r. Engine over the rear wheels. Very thin looking canvas roof. Think the bodywork is red but not much of it.

My proudest is the Paganni Zonda Cinque. I have seen 2 so far One with a Saudi Plate in London last year at summer. The other was in the Cape Town showroom.

No too bad considering that I think only 5 cars were produced worldwide. Just looking for the other issues.

That description sounds familiar. Probably the car I saw a couple of times in Dunblane / Bridge of Allan last year.
After a bit of research I found that it was a Secma F16

Yep any Renault is probably a sports car for a Dundonian. Most can't event count to 5 never realise that that's what Cinque means. :lol:

I spotted an SLR 722 in brum today, talk about a rumble, it was like a low flying aircraft when it accelerated past me!
