Those cars are often seen in Germany (Lambo's and TVRs). Especially at the NurburgRing! The day I showed up at the 'Ring, one was passing me as I entered the zone and got a few pics of two other TVRs. There were three there that day but I didn't hear their engines because mine is louder! Hahahahahaha Great pics, and rare catch. The license plate...That looks Saudi or Middle Eastern. Is that correct? 3rd pic is my fav..... Nice!

They sound so much better than they look. Just love their engine notes and exhaust combo.

The lambo wiped the floor in terms of noise and road presence even when idle.

Cheers for the comments. The plate is from Quatar. Apparently the owner was royalty. He pretty much had someone following him (even by car) at all times.

#2 and the TVR shots were intentional due to the colour on the car. Hard to pick up otherwise due to lack of remaining light. Sun had just set so had to work with what ive got.

#4 is underexposed unintentionally but these were more snapshots and not much PP on them just for sharing.

Hopefully the lambo owner will be meeting up with me and some friends soon for a real dedicated shoot. :)

I see lambos about everyweek but NEVER have I seen a TVR. that would be EPIC.
Nice Shots. I like the water on number 8 but the glare is a bit distracting.
And that lambo interior makes me feel like Im in a Port-o-pottie in my CLS...

I see what you are saying, I could trim that out but will lose the purple tint. Should pop over to London some time, im seeing about three a day, Tuscan Speed Sixes are very popular these days. There was a Speed 12 at a motor show about a week ago, pure sex!

Really? So it seems that the non Euro market do not see their fair share of British sports cars (Excluding Aston Martin since that is one confused company). If I was to move out of Europe, that would be the first thing I would think of doing.

Its funny to think of a TVR an exotic sports car when you are out of Europe actually :lol:.

I can't see any of the pics bar 8?

If you're into TVR's, I have something very special to show you soon. I spent 2 days at a proving ground with the new Sagaris (3 of them, although onlyt one new MKII) shooting it for TVR. Awesome piece of kit, quicker than an F430, half the price and much better looking.

I'll post them as soon as I'm aloud
