Ah, I saw both of these tonight as well. Shared signal space with the winged B, and chanced upon the S. Have been for a spin in the S, it is, quite literally, other-worldly!

BTW, The Bentley pics are titled "India-The country with both extremes"...

was this a Bellary (KA34..) registered Flying spur?..I saw one near Mocha last evening.

The liquor baron owning this car sure knows how to maintain his cars.

Have to hand it to you Manish.

You are the official spy for Team-BHP.

Personally, i prefer the bangle butt, even merc copied the boot style for the maybak and the the current s.

spotted this KA reg Mini cooper with a bunch of girls in it !

14000rpm · 24th May 2009, 22:26

spotted a silver rx8 in kalyan nagar.while i was taking this cars pic, a 911 passed by followed by the souped up red supra..phew...never spotted all these at one time. darn luck i didn't take my digital camera around and I couldn't take a pic of the porsche.The hazy messed up pic is of the red supra.
Interestingly, this rx8 had stock wheels up front and wide low pro tyres and diff alloys for the rear.weird.

JayR · 24th May 2009, 22:38

@14000 rpm,

Yup, this is the ka34 spur. He seems to be a regular in the neighborhood. And that silver rx8 went past nyx like 4 times on friday ! In a span of 20 minutes.

I reckon The KA34 Flying spur belongs to the famous MLA/mining/software co's/pub etc brothers from bellary.
@JayR ,
did you notice the different sets of wheels Fr/Rr on the RX8?

IronWolf · 25th May 2009, 09:45

Nice pics on the RX8. I see this parked near my home quite often at night.

Its running its stock rim and tire on the front right as they had a flat recently on the after market ones. Saw him rolling slowly with those 40(?) profile tires, real slowly with what looked like a flat.

Thats been running around with temp number plates from quite some time now.

TomRider · 25th May 2009, 18:07

We used to see a 2nd gen Accord parked near Ulsoor lake almost everyday. It had a set of 22" wheels with a 30 profile tire. (Forgot the width)

And yesterday my brother told that he saw the RX-8 in the place of Accord. Only one thing retained, the rear wheels!

Saw the same RX8 parked close to ulsoor lake yesterday afternoon, opposite the bengali association. There used to be a very subtly modified but a great looking white accord usually parked in the same spot. Dont know if the same guy owns this. Looked like a spanking new entry to the list of cars in bangalore or has it been here for sometime now ?

This car had a temp reg sticker and it can't be run for long on it coz of insurance issues. So, I reckon it must be an addition.
@manish, I think the red supra i spotted was the same one you posted earlier.I'm sure My pic isn't gonna tell you anything.
