New Civic Type-R in Redditch, spotted a few times on Windmill Drive & then down towards Oakenshaw McDonalds. It looks fab, although a bit bigger than I was expecting... it's certainly got presence smile

Yellow lamborghini Countach on the M1 last weekend, only quickly spotted it, but it looked like a 25th Anniversary model.

can't remember the last time I saw a Countach on the road, let alone an Anni..

I saw a new Maserati Quattroporte outside work this afternoon and I must admit, I prefer the look of the (cheaper) Ghibli. The new Quattroporte looks dull and ordinary.

Within 15 seconds of each other, M54 Junction 4 yesterday:

Ferrari, I think a 308 or 328 in red.

991 C2 GTS Coupe in white, stunning!

Stands a good chance! I was just approaching the J4 roundabout, he was leaving it to head towards Stafford Park I think. Then the Porsche went round and up the A5.

Aston Vantage GT12 on the A38 last night while we were on our way to the cinema to see Spectre!

Reg was the one featured in the magazine reviews GT12 AML

Sounded ace! Will try and upload a video clip.

Black Diablo GT at Wollaton Hall on Sunday, I've seen it around Nottingham a few times recently. I've done a bit of research and it seems that they're pretty rare - 1 of 80 produced and possibly only 3 in the UK. I'll get a photo up later if I find a bit of spare time.

Sounds like the one with the number plate that says Batman?

That's been around a long time! I remember seeing it parked in a garage by the Ice Stadium when I was at uni in Nottingham back in '05!

Bit of a mixed bag yesterday:
Silver McLaren Merc SLR on a trailer at the M6/M6 Toll junction.
Red Alpina D4 Coupe with RUN 80Y plate near Walsall.
Pristine orange Fiat 126 on the M6 at Fort Dunlop.

Red Alfa 4C at Horeston Grange shops in Nuneaton yesterday.
I've seen what I assume to be the same one a few times recently in the Long Shoot/A5 area. Lovely looking thing.

On Coventry Road in Hinckley this afternoon was a white 12C spider and out by Mill on the Soar last weekend saw my first Zenos E10s. No pics unfortunately as I was driving the other way both times.
