Now I may be going mad, but I've just seen a modded Rolls with an exhaust coming out of the bonnet and a huge rear wing...going towards Harrogate from Wetherby. Tried to find it online but failed to find a picture of it.

Pretty certain I've seen this at the Newark Autojumble, last year.

Not going mad. It was at the Whitby Kustom Show last year, running a big diesel lump if I remember correctly smile

A mate at work keeps showing me pics of that Bentley. Apparently it's owned by a mate if his who is into old trucks and does the odd bit if welding on his snotters. I'll try and get a bit more info.

Coming back this afternoon I was in convoy with another M6GC just before the M18, wonderful looking cars.

I've only ever seen one other on the road, that was very close the the main dealership in Leeds and only a fleeting glance.

Seeing another one surprised me too, you were both just rubbing it in! although having had a 116i for the last 2 weeks whilst mine was being repaired the usual 4 hour trip south was a joy this morning.
