...#3, the big one! Ford GT40, what an insane machine. It has the iconic gulf livery as well, I was extremely excited once that popped up. I've previously seen a 2005 GT here, now I just need to spot my favourite generation, the 2017 GT. Happy Halloween everyone, hope you enjoy these spots/pictures.

Absolutely mental to see a car like this on public roads! Fantastic spot man!
ST22HTV - 31-10-2024 om 17:39
@sanderwubs no, but the owner also has loads of cars like a Pagani Utopia.
Hyenaboy - 31-10-2024 om 18:34
Btw, I believe this is a Superformance GT40 (which is more of a continuation model).

Mind blowing spot mate! I’ve been lucky enough to spot one of these too, but one would say that in Monaco it’s too easy… on the other hand, seeing one in Alderley Edge is just crazy! I have to come there sooner or later
ST22HTV - 31-10-2024 om 19:07
@Dalzzz thanks a lot. That's insane you've seen one but still, in Monaco they must be 'more common'
JJMad - 31-10-2024 om 19:09
Insane spot! Probably is a continuation like @Hyenaboy says as the date of its first registration is in 2000. Unreal find all the same!
ST22HTV - 31-10-2024 om 20:38
@JJMad thanks, you're probably correct but still, it will be expensive
ST22HTV - 31-10-2024 om 20:40
@Hyenaboy finger's crossed... Thanks for voting by the way, much appreciated
BrickShark - 31-10-2024 om 21:05
Thats absolutely unbelievable! Congratulations! Is this real or replica? I have seen one in summer too (on oneliferally), it was a green GT40, which was a rebuilt road legal version of a REAL burned GT40. So that car is 50% replica and 50% real. Again congratulations on this spot!
BrickShark - 31-10-2024 om 21:07
This is probably replica, since real GT40 cost like $10 million and almost never driven.
ST22HTV - 31-10-2024 om 22:19
@BrickShark thank you very much. Still, a replica can cost lots of money too!
ST22HTV - 31-10-2024 om 22:24
@BrickShark amazing that you saw a 50% real GT40. I believe this one is a rebuild but can still cost over 200k
davileon - 31-10-2024 om 22:34
Congrats on SOTD mate deserved to the T! You know it's been over 3 months since your last, so glad you got it well overdue! 🏆
BrickShark - 31-10-2024 om 22:38
Still nice! Did it sound awesome, btw? Because the one I saw sounded absolutely mind-blowing @ST22HTV
ST22HTV - 01-11-2024 om 01:21
@Rostyslav thanks. In fact, I won exactly one year ago (last Halloween) as well with my Onyx Aventador SX
Exotics of Lithuania - 01-11-2024 om 02:00
These GT40s are such racing legends. Can't forget how they dominated LeMans in the 60s. This example looks especially stunning in this gulf paint scheme.
ST22HTV - 01-11-2024 om 10:40
@Rostyslav I hope so, you've probably won the most SOTD in the UK this year
ST22HTV - 01-11-2024 om 10:40
[@Exotics of Lithuania] thank you very much. You are absolutely correct!
Horse-Power - 01-11-2024 om 12:22
Epic Halloween post, buddy. Once again a huge congrats on achieving 1200 spots here on AG.. Bravo. Have yourself a great up and coming weekend, Linus.
joos straetmans - 01-11-2024 om 17:34
Nice spot. Strange that OMN18 does not give a hit on vehicle enquiry.
ST22HTV - 01-11-2024 om 19:25
@Hyenaboy just a tip for your pictures, don't zoom into the cars because that makes the quality of the pictures lower. That's why I guess the F40 was deleted. I know it's annoying
ST22HTV - 01-11-2024 om 19:26
[@joos straetmans] thank you. Yes, the registration doesn't appear on any reg check website. Odd
AndeleBFotografie - 01-11-2024 om 19:47
Wow, truly a stunning car and spot!! I know you like modern cars better in general, I'd choose this over the 2017
Hyenaboy - 01-11-2024 om 20:42
@ST22HTV Neither does MDB 888 (formerly on a silver Urus, currently on an orange Aventador Roadster).
Hyenaboy - 01-11-2024 om 23:06
@ST22HTV Apparently, my Urraco spot didn’t have a rear view, even though it literally did.
Also, in regards to MDB 888, I was referring to how the plate doesn’t show up on any plate-check sites.
Hyenaboy - 01-11-2024 om 23:09
Also, I just had a look at the newsletter: this spot is the overall top spot from yesterday (as in, it got the most votes of any SOTD spot).
spots.by.renzo - 02-11-2024 om 00:12
Incredible find! Saw one at the track a long time ago, amazing car!
Hyenaboy - 02-11-2024 om 13:36
The Urraco was spotted in Alderley Edge yesterday. (Not by me, unfortunately).
Hyenaboy - 02-11-2024 om 14:10
@ST22HTV True. And I can imagine you can guess who did see it yesterday?
ST22HTV - 02-11-2024 om 20:13
@Hyenaboy ah, ok. I hope that I (my family) can have a nice sports car at some point.
Hyenaboy - 02-11-2024 om 23:35
@ST22HTV Speaking if MDB888: I think the Aventador is probably the rarest Lamborghini I have up currently.
ST22HTV - 02-11-2024 om 23:56
@Hyenaboy I'd say so, the STO is more common. My rarest Lamborghini is the Aventador onyx SX 1/15
ST22HTV - 03-11-2024 om 07:11
@Hyenaboy your rarest is actually the Mansory Venatus coming to think of it. My rarest spot in general is the Onyx 8XX (1/5)
Nemanja 8.32 - 03-11-2024 om 09:49
it is legendary find, incredible color, and huge luck to catch this monster 👌
ST22HTV - 03-11-2024 om 11:01
[@Nemanja 8.32] thank you very much. Definitely a spotting high for me!
ST22HTV - 03-11-2024 om 15:32
@tk97 bedankt, de Gulf-kleurstelling is zo iconisch. Het is ook gek om te zien hoe laag het in het echt is!
CC36 - 20-04-2025 om 21:49
@ST22HTV @Hyenaboy I think this looks more like the MkII than the MkI. Do you agree?
PatrickC - 10-09-2025 om 12:54
Your comment section is like a forum of it's own, lol. Nice spot mate! 🍺
