    How come your photos are turning out blurred mate?

    PS Here's another one of the orange R8 and an orange Supra. Told you orange was the new black!

    Issues with resizing and attaching onto FChat - for some reason the image automatically downgrades in quality when I attach

    Funny, the T-Plate on the R8 is different on your pic and on mine; didn't know that it could just be changed whenever.

    And as to "orange is the new black"...

    There seems to be a lot of T Plates there. Is there a sale on?!... Is this the new showroom?....although I see no "For Sale" signs !!!!!!!
    I am surprised with this being such a regular SMD event why some of our Hong Kongs finest are not camped out at Luk Keng looking for T Plate abuse?

    They were there, in fact; there was a police van which was in the carpark which then went over to where the cars were, then just left.

    They must have been genuine T-Plate users (he says tongue in cheek!)

    If by genuine you mean dealer, I'm not sure...there's an olive Murci which I've seen several times, always with the same T-Plate. Plus I think he's changed the wheels since the last time I saw it.

    I find it amazing too. Using a T-Plate at 8am on Sunday morning on a group drive boggles the mind

    First time out with the new camera today. First time DSLR user so I'm finding my feet. Not an exotic as such, but anyhoo...

    What is a DSLR? Some kind of Mercedes with German plates?

    That violet was originally on the rare (150 made) Diablo SE30 (Jay Kay of Jamiroquai fame had one). This little devil you have here is a VT Roadster. Very nice spot!

    LOL, so it's like a normal Diablo with a rare paintjob? The guy who has it also has an old Rolls-Royce and a Ferrari 308, all parked in an open garage.

    On the other hand, saw a Bentley Continental Flying Spur without a license plate parked inside an open garage (with the gate open o_O). Expensive lawn ornament?

    Haha! I have just noticed the face of the chap in the Diablo. He looks just like my mate although I can't see him driving something quite that flashy.

    Yes, very rare indeed. Good find & nice to see it on the road!

    There's a same coloured SE in Malaysia but a coupe.

    Haha. I saw that myself the other day. I also saw a Mini Cooper with a Hello Kitty sticker theme complete with Hello Kitty face exhaust tip. Sigh!
