24 Hours with a Ghost

A Ghost, not a goat....

 

 

An old joke. Ask me to to tell it if you meet me...

 

 

Anyway, a good write up here.

 

 

Patrick 3331 again:

 

Great shots.

 

 

And a somewhat 'lickable' caramel flavoured Ghost.

Almost Live From London

Kejonbro's shots this weekend:

 

 

A lovely S1

 

 

And a modern car sporting some rather interesting alloys:

 

 

Cool.

Double Take

So how about this?

 

 

A nice Tudor Red Turbo R.

 

 

The long one though - the RL

 

 

With a factory bespoke (though rather obsolete) R.S.E.S.-  Rear Seat Entertainment System.

 

 

It even has the Silver Spur style stainless steel trim around the rear number plate.

 

 

There were only 1,410 Turbo RLs built but this one is even more unique.

 

 

Look at the right door jamb. The VIN plate.

 

 

But wait a minute...

The car's a U.S. L.H.D. car. The plates should be in the driver's jamb....

 

 

"Oooerr..." the boys at Crewe must've said. "It's on the wrong saaad.... Bloody 'ell, the boss'll kill us..."

 

So whaddya do in this case? Fill the holes and repaint?

Nawwww.... Just put a second batch of plates on the correct side!

 

 

 

 

This has got to be the only car (never mind Crewe product) with left and right matching plates. Quite unique indeed...

 

It's on Ebay:

Very Sad Crewe Products

Two old worn out cars on Ebay.

 

Are they worth saving?

How do these wonderful cars end up like this?

 

This just bothers me....

Big Mac & Friends

Kenjonbro in Trafalgar Square, Monday and Tuesday.

A fine example of a Bentley R Type sporting the registration 'MAC' :

 

 

Then a pair of Phantom IIIs  (or are they IIs?) on Tuesday:

 

 

 

Look what's in front of it here (not the 'Benz)  :

 

 

Then a white PIII (or II)  :

 

 

Off to a wedding.

 

 

 

 

 

And let's throw in some 'common or garden stuff'....

 

 

A nice 'garden'.

 

 

 

I could book a flight just to hang out there for one day.

 

Thanks to Ken for these - great, as always.

Patrick in Dubai

Youtuber Patrick3331, who is based in Dubai does not mind a bit of car spotting.

His main hangout is at the Mall of the Emirates, one of the best places to spot not the most conservative Crewe cars.

Like this chrome wrapped car.



Or do you prefer Swarovski crystals?



Or maybe a two-tone Ghost?



Or how about a Mansory widebody LeMansory GT?



Or a purple Mulsanne?



Feeling hungry? How about a chocolate brown Phantom with a caramel everflex roof?



They are all just pooping down to the shops for milk a bread no doubt.

Mulsanne, Spirit, Cloud - Mayhem too

Trafalgar Square update:

 

 

An early eighties Bentley Mulsanne and Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit spotted by kenjonbro on Saturday.

 

 

 

Then a nice Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III

 

 

 

Then a few modern 'PMCs':

 

 

 

 

 

But something happened and everyone had to leave....

 

 

 

Not sure what it was, but all is back to normal now.

 

Great shots Ken.

London (almost) live...
