OV9

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.

A deep rumble in the city

Z1 also

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 ).

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.

Ralliart Lancer - these had a 1.8l turbo and I think a cvt that no one liked:






Not sure what's going on with my phone here, the canopy was a nice darker maroon in the real world:





Nissan Cefiro - these are rwd or 4wd, the quick ones have a 2L straight six turbo (rb20det):

An M2 on the M1.

My opinion on it's looks in the real world has....not gone down well on Twitter

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.

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!

Saw a Passat W8 estate this morning.

Can't be many of them around....

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.



Still - its an improvement on the normal X6

Saw that in the Catford Halford's car park a couple of times.

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.

Ears were alerted to something interesting parking by a V8 rumble

Bullitt Mustang

Excellent spots

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.
