btw the clicking is the keyfob, unlock/lock

qwerty321 · 31-05-2009, 10:54 PM

Far from the best car in this thread but I thought Id post it anyway. Only had it a few days.

Renault Laguna 2.2 dCi Dynamique. 225/45 R17 V tyres which I cant stop looking at :D

I did at one point consider posting a pic of the Corsa but decided against wasting everyones bandwith!

NWhiteley · 04-06-2009, 4:20 PM

My new MK6 Golf GT160

ash · 04-06-2009, 5:19 PM

Very nice colour there! It is quite brave to get a white car.

How do you like it? And manual?

This is my 3rd or 4th white car, so its just another colour to me, its just happens to be the best colour!, White is the new black

.

It is manual, and i'm liking it more and more as the engine loosens up, the noise from the supercharger and then the turbo just has to heard to be believed!

Far from it... white is a v cool colour at the moment.

White could be the new silver

.

I've seen a lot of smaller cars (1 series BMs in particular) in white. Look really good. It used to be the kiss of death 10 years ago, mind.

That Golf looks great in white. Nice choice.

ash · 04-06-2009, 9:28 PM

Oh yeah true, currently white is very popular. I meant to say about some years back, it was very rare.

Nowadays, 1series and 3series Coupe are advertised in white!

Batch · 04-06-2009, 9:33 PM

Very nice Golf!

Ferrari F40 (and White Porsche 997 GT3 poking its nose out to the far left)
Subaru Impreza WRX STI
Audi RS4
Lancia Delta HF Intergale
Honda Integra Type R
Pagani Zonda C12S in Blue
Nissan Skyline GT-R R34
Skoda Fabia VRS
McLaren F1
Ford Focus RS

So Which one is mine?

I give up, as nobody is going to guess, I will tell you. It's the Black Fabia vRS. I may post more pics of it later. Also parked down the junction was:
another Zonda (Silver one)
Honda NSX-R,
1972 Porsche 911 2.7 RS and a
Bugatti Veyron

(only 1 of 2 in the country at that time)

Ok they were actually parked for a Photo-shoot for EVO magazine, it was for their 100th Edition (Jan 2007). The Scooby and the Focus were Photographers/Journalist and the RS4 was for the main photography, especially for the moving shots. The rest was for the article, well except mine of course!

Tommy Kaira · 08-06-2009, 1:21 AM

A few of mine:

With new wheels (to be replace by 12s on the back)

Daily driver

2 wheels

This is currently sat in primer, waiting for a respray in Kandy cherry red.

Tow car

And saving the best til last....

Hope you like them!

Razor · 08-06-2009, 10:31 AM

A nice selection of vehicles there Tommy.

NWhiteley - I like your new Golf, great choice of colour too.

Thanks Razor.

Jay J,
No, it's a Tommy Kaira ZZ. It was a production car in the mid-ninetys (before the elise I might add) but not many were made due to the Japanese economy going down the toilet. Great fun though and it was actually made here in the UK by the factory that now makes the Mosler!!!

yinujim · 17-06-2009, 12:30 AM

Nearly finished 1987 325i manual project.

knight2000uk · 18-06-2009, 3:22 PM

A couple of new ones now ive dusted him off and took him to a local show

Stu

lowlandsmatt · 20-06-2009, 7:10 PM

Nice car Knight!

That interior just made do a double take when looking through these threads.Are you able to have the outside red light on in transit?!

Was you parked in ASDA Cannock carpark a few nights ago ?

If it was, i saw you, but didn't click it was you. Told my son about the car, but he's to young to know who Knight Rider is.

neuty

soltakr · 20-06-2009, 11:30 PM

still love seeing your car, do you go to any shows like to santa pod or anywhere in midlands?

knight2000uk · 21-06-2009, 12:19 AM

You should check out our knight rider event in Halifax in September buddy.
Welcome to KnightCon or our social network Knightconuk - www.knightconuk.co.uk.
I do plan to attend a few shows but currently waiting for the cash to recover.

As for Cannock it may have been another replica there are around 20 work in progress replicas in the Uk i know of.

Matt, the short answers No, but I do have the odd cheeky stint now and then

Think ill come along for that as I live in Halifax, seems a very strange place to have it though in the premier inn car park opposite mcdonalds

Couldn't you get the piece hall or something like all the bike/car rallys do?

knight2000uk · 04-07-2009, 2:50 AM

The inn staff were extremely accommodating last year and we like the location not to mention the fact we can park the cars close to the hotel room stay over and be up and ready next day to get set up

It may have to change tho next year though if the event outgrows the location.

Stu

I think you ARE my new hero

Seriously impressed, amazing work too and that voice LOL, brings back memory's haha. I do like the new Knight Rider, trouble is the new car whilst cool is boring really as it's all CGI, not a labour of love like the fine example you've got. Really stunned. Well done mate.

Copplepot · 13-07-2009, 12:02 PM

Just sold my last car but i really miss it now, didn't really like it when i owned her but you don't know what you got 'til it's gone.

1995 N/A MR2

Hi Cooplepot - I used to have one of these too, a 1997 T-Bar in Red. Reminds me of my old one, I loved that car!!

Hi Stu,

Looks great! I don't remember seeing this one at the last Knight Con event, looking at the interior (yep, I'm a Knight Rider Knerd too.

) . I'll look out for it in September.

As for the event, I'd recommend it to any Knight Rider fans, or those who'd like their piccy taken with KITT. The last few events I have been too have been great, and included personal video greeting messages from the stars of the show.

Paul.

JUS · 18-07-2009, 12:34 PM

Some great cars...and sooo many! I've flicked through about 30 pages. Does anyone have a Lotus Charlton? I've always admired them for being quite a boring looking large family car with incredible performance. Be interested to hear how much someone bought one for and how much for running costs :-)

I've had Cortina Estate, MGB GT, Rover P6S V8, Triumph herald, Alfa GTV, Impreza...I'm now in India with a Toyota Innova but my mrs is picking up my new Honda Civic Sport in the UK on Wednesday next week :-)
