Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

An alfa romeo 8C came past me today, just before vauxhall bridge (heading north). He put his foot down, and the thing sounds as good as it looks. Class. Never seen one before, either. One of 500, that's why (google is my friend!)

yeah he locks that/ works on randall road in vauxhall. i don't really know what the deal is with that place but the same guy, or someone who works there has consistently owned a string of beautiful, beautiful cars.
