Combo's and Strange Sightings

Rollercoaster on the streets: Ferrari 360 Modena Limousine
Aug 31, 2012, 2:58 PM When the doors open and the people step out of the car it looks like a real rollercoaster, only a rollercoaster on the streets. Up to eight persons can take a seat in this car which is still powered by the famous V8 engine. With a power of 400 bhp we think the car will accelerate in five or six seconds up to 100 km/h. Corners are something which will be less fun than in an original Ferrari.

Mansory Range Rover Sport shows its face in Düsseldorf
Aug 31, 2012, 1:57 PM A pretty front makes or breaks a cars looks. ‘Get the hell out of my way’ is a sentence which perfectly fits with this Mansory Range Rover Sport, which is spotted in Düsseldorf. With the striking bodykit this isn’t quite a car for an old granny, more for a kickboxer.

Not four, not six but eight wheels on this Hummer!
Aug 31, 2012, 12:53 PM Some spots are not just special because of the amount of power or historic importance but because of their bizarre looks. The following Hummer makes us think of a truck which transformed to a Hummer because we don’t see a car with eight wheels very often. The Hummer H2 8-Wheeler Super Stretched Limousine is not a very normal limousine, it looks more like a bus.

It can't get more stylish than this green Bentley Brooklands
Aug 31, 2012, 12:02 PM The Bentley Brooklands 2008 is a beautiful and stylish car in almost every version. Especially in green, a very rare colour on this car. The red line on the side of the car is a very subtle detail which emphasizes the beautiful design on the side of the car. Combined with the red Bentley logo in the center of the wheels this looks really perfect. Unfortunately this is something you won’t see very often!

Aug 31, 2012, 8:27 AM Samuel Eto’o is more often highlighted on the Autogespot frontpage. Partly because of his crazy car collection. He owns a lot of cars including a Xenatec 57S Cruisero Coupe , an Aston Martin One-77 and a Bugatti Veyron 16.4. This gave him the nickname “Auto’o”. A new toy was spotted in front of Hotel George V in Paris, where cars of him were spotted before.

Mercedes-Benz G 55 spotted in its natural habitat
Aug 30, 2012, 1:57 PM The Mercedes-Benz G 55 AMG seems to be the perfect car for Dubai. Huge, outstanding, fast and capable of driving through the dunes. The last thing is something not every owner will do but it does show the potential of this giant from AMG. Shining in the evening sun is something this car is really good in. An uncle of spotter MS Photography was in Dubai and spotted this sporty SUV.
