The East Anglia Spotted Thread

Impressive 'Rain Man' style number plate recognition skills by the way!

I don't know what it is but number plates always stick in my head, just a shame I can never remember anything important

Spotted our own MR 'H Reapers' MX5 at the classic car show in Norwich.
Went to grab camera and you'd disappeared by the time I got back !!

Think I saw that one in coming out of Roys in Dereham on Saturday, had a bag of compost on the passenger seat

Old L reg, said DinoGT on the back.

Possibly a replica if it was being treated like that, as real ones are fetching well into six figures, but you never know!

I think there's a few people about who bought them cheap a few years back and don't quite know what they're worth these days!

Or people who know what they're worth but don't care as they have no intention of selling. Money only applies when you sell!

There was a (proper!) 300sl Gullwing Merc at the classic car show at Elvedon on Saturday. I overheard the owner mention it was insured for seven figures and that he could never afford to buy one now. As he already has one before they shot up in value though, he uses it as he always did!

As I said, you never know and it's refreshing to see people put their classics to use, so we all get to enjoy looking at them.

Sorry Mark, didn't see you! Went for a hoon following Elliott in his 1972 BMW 3.0 CSL, through the lanes towards Debenham / Eye sort of direction.

We were in the Yeti on the A14 near Stow and going the other way, so forgiven for not seeing me

Blue 07 plate RS4 saloon with dark wheels coming out of Sweetbriar at 6.10pm tonight giving a slight bit of right foot, sounded delicious. Shame i was in the d5 so couldn't compete in the noise stakes
