Saw an Invader estate on the A519 from Stoke to Telford about 6 weeks ago, didn't even know they made an estate version, must be pretty rare.

No pictures but saw a white Boxster at Birmingham airport on Tuesday, looked like it might have been a Ruf but I'm not sure, had the GT3 style front end.
Anyone know what I'm going on about?

Also an Audi with a PH smiley in the same car park wavey

No pics sorry but I saw an Alfa 4C Spider on Mansfield Rd in Nottingham on Friday, I assume it was a demo car from Variavas as far as I'm aware the Spider version has only just landed in the UK. It sounded fantastic and had just as much presence as a Ferrari 458 Spider, yet a quarter of the price!

Hi there,

Son has just sent me a text saying a friend saw this parked up at Chartwell in Derby today.

OMG this is epic, what a superb colour choice.

That SV looks incredible!
Saw a Maserati MC Stradale in Donington services this morning. Sounded very naughty!

Lamborghini Huracan, Bingham A46/A52 intersection this morning, FJ65???

Followed him down to the A606 junction at a very steady pace....

Spotted what looks like the same car southbound A46 towards Longbridge (M40) ~2.30pm today. Owner obliged me by pulling alongside then giving it a prod of loud* pedal...sounded fantastic.

Also saw a black Gallardo heading north on the A46 out of Stratford 10 minutes later...



* As in Spinal Tap 11!!!

Think it was a real red Ferrari F40 on A425 by Southam Polo grounds Fri 25th about 5:30pm. Looked incredible. Hoping it wasn't a kit car.

It was a pleasure to see a green "64" plate Lamborghini Huracan emerge from the fog this morning on the commute to work.

Spotted in Loundsley Green Road, Chesterfield, around 8:30am this morning.

As I was driving back from JLR Solihull on Monday I saw an BMW E92 M3 Touring. It looked amazing but clearly a conversion.
