I'd hate to keep that clean.. It would turn into a fur ball in the UK.. I have seen some unpainted Caterhams but I think they only come out in good weather.. So that's about 2 days a year!

My first Lotus Emira in the flesh.. In London.. nice weather too..

Saw a cyber truck for the first time today. Was pretty boring though.

Here’s one you don’t see, hardly ever in the UK and only get a rare glimpse of here in North America. This is a 2004 TVR Sagaris. But not just any Sagaris, oh no. This particular Sagaris comes with a very special distinction: as an official press car for TVR Cars it has enjoyed a life in the spotlight quite unlike any other example. Featured significantly in enthusiast magazines such as Evo - which hailed the Sagaris as “TVR’s maddest modern creation”, and Autocar, which said “the Sagaris represents TVR’s finest hour”, it’s also the Sagaris reviewed by Jeremy Clarkson on the BBC Top Gear Test Track in a 2005 episode of the series.

I'm seeing all over the place here. Saw two yesterday. One still had temporary tags but looked like it was 20 years old and never washed. To me, its just a piece of hot garbage. But heh to each their own.

I remember that episode! Watched a lot of Top Gear reruns during my intern summer. Not the best way to spend my 21st summer, but not the worst I guess.

Saw plenty of them when we were in Austin. Didn't realize they are built there. I didn't think it was possible, but they look even dumber in person.

They seriously look like a couple of dudes threw them together in their metal shop.

Yep, you're right, a rare sight in the UK. Today, I took my BRZeeee in for its annual roadworthly inspection and service. Killing some time in town, saw a Griff, not seen one years...
