Ok starting a new update.
I saw this sc430 way behind and i was trying to get a pic ,i took some crappy pics and kept leaning up trying to get a pic over the cars behind us


TVR Tuscan - Always Parked in the guys driveway


Nissan 350Z passed on the dual carriageway infront


Mercedes CL500 going the other way


Highland Cattle in a field


The hills ahead of us


Thats a little Fast to be doing on the country roads


OK this was the destination and now we have arrived - Its called Backwater Dam - Heres some Scenery 8)


Pied Wagtail hopping about on the bank


Can you see the aeroplane?


An Oyster Catcher resting on the wall of the dam


Me looking over into the dam 8)


Thought this reflection looked cool


Small walk at the side of the dam


And of course the history


Snow on the hills at the back


My mum shouted "David" and i came running over and it turned out she found a caterpillar . It was so cool and felt tickly when crawling over my hand


I dont think you could ignore this sign


The Backwater reservoir inaugurated by the Queen :roll:


Pics of the roads over the moorlands (BTW they are burning heather )


I dont think i have seen a car with such a short reg especially in the countryside


And of course theres quite a lot of cattle grids around the area


Big bird of prey flying around in the sky


Combine Harvester in a barn ready for autumn


And to finish off there was an old car being towed by some kind of modified mercedes ml


Hope you enjoyed the pics. Something different this time from the normal stuff

Im behind now in my updates but here is teh lot after my trip to backwater dam

Ok, i was in broughty ferry when i saw a really old classic car, a Morris 8 Tourer, one of only 13 worldwide . I told my mum to go back and she stopped and I got out. I went over to the guy and asked if i could take pics and he said sure. So i took a couple of pics then i asked him what the car was and the history etc.. then he asked if i wanted a ride up the road and i said yes. I ran back to the car to ask my mum and she said yes so i ran back and got in. There were no seatbelts because cars made before 1950 didnt need them . Then we were off with my mum in the renault espace following . He started it and we drove off up the road and stopped at a traffic light. Lights turned green and we set off up the road at 20mph. He told me the car was made in 1949 and could only do 45mph and that it could have doen 58mph new going downhill . The ride was really bumpy and there was a trail of cars following. We got up the road and he let me off and he drove off. It was my first real ride in a nice car except for my neighbours Volvo XC90 8) . It was fun and very enjoyable
Now for the starting off from teh start of the day to the end

Rolls Royce Silver Spirit


TVR Tuscan (Same one in the driveway but better pic?)


Renault Clio V6


Jaguar XJ (Everytime i see one of these i drool 8) )


BMW M5 AC Schnitzer (One For Pehtren? )


Morris 8 Drophead 1949 - One Of 13 Worldwide

The Video will be up soon

Mercedes SL350


Daimler Double Six


Windy Day was perfect for some kite action


Chrysler Crossfire - IMO the best pic of the day - TT, could it be entered into the photocomp?


Honda S2000


I know this dog looks so cute and cuddly but when i got out the car it was barking like a rottweiller :shock:


Ford Focus ST - Blue with white stripe 8)


Subaru Impreza WRX


Hope you enjoyed this update

Another huge update

IMO when you hunt so long and come home with so many sightings you can just dump the common cars like Alfa Romeo Spyder, X5 or A8 ans also the blurry pics or the ones with just part of the car in the frame and so on just a suggestion, but when you can spot a pink Cerbera, I don't think the other cars are that interesting beside it

Beeing selective isn't always a bad thing
