I'd love to experience driving one on a big trip but that is going to have to wait for me to win the lottery I don't enter!
London bound on the M3 years ago, a Blower Bentley went past. I wasn't hanging about myself. He was doing well over a ton protected by a wax jacket, a flat hat and gloves. Top man.

Well, I certainly wasn't dressed like that.
I was wearing Nike Dunks, gym shorts and a £23 t-shirt.
A lot of very smartly dressed people though I must say.

That'll be a 4.0 V8 if I'm not mistaken.

You're probably correct, given the age of it.
Marvellous engine that. I remember taking a chap out in a E63 estate with PP fitted and he giggled like a kid every time he buried the throttle.

The first time I’ve seen a Roma Spider in the flesh - nice and understated black/black/black. Lovely (IMHO).

Shelby Series 1.
I've never seen one of these before. Not my particular cup of tea, but interesting none the less.



Porsche GT3 Touring in green over tan. Possibly a PTS colour? I'm not sure.

Great too see this GTA isn’t a garage queen, it recently featured in an Evo threesome vs. an M3 CS and an XE Project 8:
