Dark Grey Ferrari 458 Milton road WSM lunchtime sounded ruddy awesome!
This might be local after all -

Saw what I thought was a pure black one (I was up close enough to give a thumbs up to the driver) in the Boulevard WSM this morning around 11

Then on my way out the usual V12 vantage in the same area

Thanks for the spots. I knew the father-in-law wouldn't be able to resist taking it out whilst i have been away. Fair play to him though he managed to put it back in the exact same spot in the barn so i wouldn't notice it had been moved-milage check next time. Good work and see you around
Nice !

Look forward to seeing it around WSM in the future - made my day

Enjoy

Spotted in a car park in Gloucester this morning were four Austin Sevens, all of which were members of the Cornwall Austin Seven club.

What they were doing here is anyone's guess as there was no one with the cars.

On the way one I was behind a 'P' plate Vauxhall Vectra which was fully liveried in the yellow works colours when they ran the Vectra in the British Touring Car Championship.

No sure which year the livery refers too as a quick google search didn't provide any answers.

Car looked in good condition & looked way better than the current breed of NGTC cars that are being races these days.

Also saw a couple of Audi R8 V10's in Cheltenham early this morning. One with the roof down even though it was pissing down with rain!!

Great stuff - well done that cold & wet looking man!

Just spotted The Chav in his wagon on Avon Street. Did beep and wave but you were several feet above my crappy Corsa so didn't notice!

Saw my first F-type Jag in Nailsea today. Black V6 with the roof down and he really booted it off the round-a-bout. It sounded utterly brilliant, probablys the best sound I've heard from any car on the road in a good while, great pops and bangs when he let off smile

May be pushing the boundaries of South West, but a silver Fiat van on the M4 eastbound yesterday around 12 (I think). White PH smiley on the rear bumper...
