Today:
I also saw my first ever Porsche Boxster Spyder today at Learn Direct/Adult Learning Centre in Clay Cross. It was a pretty cool sight and it looks a lot better in the flesh than magazines.
Sadly I could not get my camera out in time on both occasions.I can save you having to get your camera out.....  A very rare sight, being only 230 in the UK.

Next time I have my lad I think we'll drop by the new Porsche showroom for a nosey. I've not been in yet.
A couple from me seen on the M42 tonight - a VW Passat W8 and a superb Lotus Esprit (V8 I think).

PB still has 6 of his cars in there and that black RR Ghost just keeps moving about. Oh, and the 458 Challenge cars seem to be padding it all out aswell. I am a grumpy b  d!

I dont visit that often so there tends to be something different in there but to be honest, i have seen PB's cars so many times now, it is nothing new.

Yes i noticed a M!lf in there Yep the Turbo with the bike was there, loved the red Cayman R they had in. Although their service was poor a few years ago! I went in to ask for a test drive in a 997 turbo, and told them I'd pretty much decided I wanted one, just wished to drive tip vs manual. The sales chap was kind enough to take my number (I had actually turned up there, not just phoned) and never called me back! A week later, Leicester had my deposit!
