  This is annoying me so much, I should have had proper look at number plate but was too busy trying to get quick picture of the car before I had to get on the bus. Now can't even tell the plate from the pic, which is why I didn't blur

  judging from that short wheelbase and very prominent front windscreen design... plus u compare that yellow car with the orignal... you just can't help but to think that many features are similar. dunno lah... owner prolly found or even custom fit some wack bodykit

  I only managed to quickly go to the petrol station to take a quick picture before goin back to the bus stop to get on my bus which had just come. Haha she wasn't the driver she was with a guy but he was walking around talkin on his phone. I would have asked him what car it was if he wasn't on the phone and if my bus wasn't there yet
  
  Does anyone know if there's any reason a plate might not show up on the LTA database? The plate I think it was doesnt seem to have a match

  i know for a fact that vintage cars bearing E-something something plates are not found in their registry. Tried looking up on a VW bug with EE plate, no result.

  autobacs...only managed to get a few quik shots cos owner was in e

  can of somethin beside e car (1st pic circled red)...e lancer in e last pic i
  
  presumed to be his fren who came to his aid...cos when i was on e return trip

  Not:
  Story writing
  
  
  The rule of NPNT, as long as no picture, no talk

  i hate to point it out haha but in my defense, thats a bit of a contradiction because the thread title reads "post all sighting/pics of rare cars in SG here!" a sighting can be portrayed in a story OR a picture, and lucky enough i had elysium back me up to prove i wasn't BSing haha if the title had NPNT then yeah i'd be at fault.
  
  anyway yeah its one crazy car, takes quite a daring driver to buy a car like that!
