Why post newer vehicles? Who cares?

I'm not making this up, I was riding my bike right behind two guys in a first-generation Bronco with the top off tonight.

I turned around and followed them but then it was driving too quickly after one intersection. It was nice to see with the top off.

It's in Belgium--that's interesting/funny/special. (well, not so much funny...)

Spotted this Noon in a small Westphalian village. It shall be restored or used for parts, said the buyer(?), a young guy with a strong Russian accent. He already owns a RO 80. But obviously is no real RO 80-expert, as he also said "This is a valuable car, minimum 1000€ to 1500€ in this condition". Which is a more than questionable opinion.

Spotted in the next village. The top original plate is the most remarkable topic :smile:

Not too special, or rare (well they are prototypes, so I guess they're rare in that respect) but sort of interesting.

A group of 2015 Ford Expedition and 2015 Lincoln Navigator prototype test-mules were spotted on public roads this week.

http://thumbnails102.imagebam.com/27676/56a267276753456.jpg

Most people (including myself... :boggled: ) were under the impression that the next Expedition would be all-new, not a refresh. But these photos say otherwise. The updated holdovers will however, be a stopgap until the all-new Expedition and Navigator to arrive in the near future, planned around 2017 or 2018. It seems a mid-lifecycle rework was planned for 2012, and it was almost complete, but the program was halted. The program was restarted earlier this year and these prototypes are a result of that program. Or so I read.

You people aren't going to believe what I saw tonight at the Spring Hill Thursday Night car show; A 1971 Plymouth Sport Fury!!

:dawa:

It's not a '72 Fury, but it's still a fuselage era Plymouth and that's good enough for me.

Various spots from over the last few weeks.

Before I've posted a pic of the house near me with the collection of Jags, latest addition is a rare XJ81 shape Daimler Double Six (less than 1,000 produced over just two years):

I like the yellow Land Rover.

Tonight I saw a bronze 1969 Dodge Charger driving up to a light. It was in great condition.

Today, I drove behind a North American spec Toyota Camry XV50. I didn't get a pic, so I should propably get a dashcam, too.

@S_415_GT: four weeks ago I saw an old Setra bus, I think a S10, in touristical use. Plate from EN.
Sorry, I couldn't find out, from what bus company it was.
02/10/2013 @ 21:59:31: S 415 GT: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
There are still a few early ones around, but usually used as 'Museums bus' for special events or to promote the company. As tourist bused, they are used very rarely
02/10/2013 @ 22:41:50: ingo: interesting/funny/special cars sightings
Sorry, yes, this I mean with "touristical use", it was chartered by a group. But of course I couldn't see the purpose.

YOU have posted at this page pics of many great cars!

Some "street randoms" from me:
From yesterday - Daihatsu Copen - to collection with the Figaro :wink:


From the last weeks:
WFM M-52 Osa - made in 1963-64 only:


Daimler Double Six:


R4 TL:




Delivery of the brand new Fabia Combi (to some private person or company). Well nothing extraordinary of course, but as a car enthusiast... :grin:


Roomster left the trailer to make the way for the Fabia:

Fabia is already unloaded, Roomster is back - the truck is ready for departure. :wink:

I can't call myself a car enthusiast because that would encompass all of them. There's too many designs that I hate. It really is a love/hate relationship.
