Can't believe I forgot. Saw a blue TVR convertible driven by middle aged guy on Melbourne Rd, Williamstown on Friday around 3.30 pm. Had yellow standard plates - think thats SA. Not really up to speed with my TVR models, but I think it was a Chimaera.

First TVR I had ever seen in the flesh. Was one of those initial "wtf is that" experiences while driving.

We had a drive day today - but no Maserati.

Would have been black Ferrari, yellow Lamborghini, orange Lotus, grey Aston Martin, grey R8, grey E63 and black RS4

ah k nice nice, wasnt 100% sure on all the cars I saw, they all drove past pretty quickly.

You drove past the tank ride venue on boneo road. Hidden behind the trees was this roaming around :)

Red Ferrari (looked like a current shape, I have no idea on models) and a yellow Lambo Gallardo parked in Coldstream and then following me into Lilydale at about 11am today. Reasonably young lady driving the red Fezza, guy driving the Lambo.

So I was in Cannes a couple days back enjoying the south of France on my honeymoon when she caught my eye going down the other side of the road. Glammed up coz it's Cannes and the film festival was on.

I ran across the road to catch a better look and whipped out the camera quick smart to grab a shot of one of the biggest celebrities I'd seen on my trip. Alas, by the time I got there, she had left her space not to be seen again. What was it that I ran across the road for with camera ready?

McLaren Mercedes SLR in CHROME paint job!!! Uber hotness! I think I pee-ed a little in my pants when I saw it but certainly needed a change of undies when it roared off down the road. All was not lost though as I saw 2 more that day along with a 430 Scud, Aston Martin DBS, Bentley Brooklands, Lambo Reventon, countless Bentley ragtops, a new Z4 (one of the cheaper cars there), other Fezzas and numerous other exotics. Photos to come.

I've been truely humbled.

Was in Monaco yesterday for the GP too and saw some nice examples of motoring but it had nothing on Cannes. Going to Monte Carlo Casino today to play James Bond. Will certainly have camera in tow to take some shots of the cars parked out front.

I was at Grays Auctions last week and there is a repo F430 Spider there coming up for auction soon. Red with black interior, just looks sweet. I'm hoping James buys it for me .......... to deliver :D .... please..... mate...

I just wish I could work again and afford the P1 membership.

Performance forums are putting together a fund for a group buy....

BTW, been hiding under a rock there Geoff? Coming back to Melbourne some time for beers?

Almost crippled mate. Nerve damage gone haywire. I can't drive a lot of the time from pain. I'm up for a computer implant trial monday to see if we can control the pain.

If things turn around I'll be trying to get around to make a nuisance of myself.

Army caused it, but the medicals are covered by the biggest bunch of 2 faced scum in government - Veterans Affairs. I heard over 40 ex-service members took their life out of frustration from trying to deal with them last year. I can understand why.

They can take their piddling pension and shove it, I just want to be able to do what I like, including getting back on a 6 figure income.

Warning: This car might be better than sex

Nope, it's real alright. Check Here

Mustang Motorsports is somewhere around where I live, so i see a few of them infrequently.

They're also a Saleen Dealer, had the "POLITE" one painted up like Barricade from the Transformers film.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
