Been out for a spirited drive this eve. Saw a black vauxhall Monaro VXR with personalised plate on the A127 going towards Rayleigh which sounded amazing. Also saw a red Abarth500 in Rayleigh today, went past in my red Abarth Grande Punto. If thats anyone from here then hello!

Funnily enough with both your spots (this and the old RR), pretty sure I know who both are...

RR was probably Paul Flatman, the owner of the poultry farm near Wormingford, he has an INCREDIBLE collection of cars (new and old)

Lady with the maser used to have an older GranTurismo, spoke to her in sainsburys a few times, knows her stuff!

I know Paul, and yes, he likes his cars. laugh

His new RR was wearing the plate PAU1 F until recently.

He is now retired, the poultry plant on Packards Lane is now shut down.

Few for me today - Imp & a blue Sunbeam Alpine or Tiger in Maldon mid morning and a red 458 (WA numberplate) that I've seen a few times dropping onto the Witham bound A12 at the Great Baddow junction; circa 10:15.

Very clean Octavia VRS with a PH Smiley parked in Tonbridge Chambers car park. Also a TTS (needing a good clean) parked nearby but I didn't see a sticker on that one.

I see that literally twice a week on the A2 between Barham and Shepherdswell no matter what the weather! Always driven at about 60mph too!
