I spotted a Focus RS500, parked at the side of a road and dirtier than it would have got if it had only been dirtied that day.
(As usual I was driving so no pic etc).


Also a Nugget Yellow Corrado that looked immaculate.

A BMW Z1. They were driving with the doors lowered into the sills, as is THE LAW.

Popped out to buy a new rear tyre for my road bike (cycle) (nipped the inner tube putting it on and had to do a repair - grr :roll: ).

Took the Evora and was almost instantly joined by a Tuscan. And we then came up behind an F12. Ended up in this 3-car convoy for a mile or so before the Tuscan pulled off. I went past the F12 : older driver with approx 11yr old boy sprog in the passenger seat who didn’t lift his head from his phone for a nanosecond.

No picture but spotted a very nice Ferrari 308 yesterday. Can’t remember the last time I saw one, excluding car shows.

Spotted my first A110 on Sunday afternoon, coming towards us on a B-road. It was in the default Alpine Blue. I thought it looked great. The wife thought it looked like a boss-eyed frog. :lol:

I'm coming round to the idea that I probably will own one in the next few years.

Also, one of these in cream, in Macclesfield:

No pic but spotted the reg "M155 TNT" on site. Nice and geeky. We have a lot of explosives here so it's probably one of the scientists.

New BMW X5

I didn't like the stlying from the press shots but in real life it is even worse with terrible detailing around exhaust trim and a wonky Groupon special rear camera

Yeah they are not great, BMW styling generally really has gone to shit!

In the same vein but with more of a Ghostbusters vibe... Not sure if I've posted this before but I saw the guy below again yesterday (not my pic). Presumably the crazy lives somewhere near me in South London. :lol:

Still - its an improvement on the normal X6
Saw that in the Catford Halford's car park a couple of times.
The Evo forum really is a shadow of its former self. I remember when the internet was for the elite and now they seem to let any spastic on

Think I stumbled upon a future version of the 812 Superfast undergoing testing.

Bodywork battered, interior a mess of wires, passenger typing away on laptop mounted to dash, additional cameras mounted to the front bumper too.

First F40 in the metal for me. Heading south on the M25. Sadly it was on of the parts with a high central divider, so couldn't see much. It was followed by a pair of 458 Speciales.
