not an exotic spot, but every day this week, and prison van being escorted down castle boulevard at bout 4pm everyday this week under armed guard (normally 1 Bib T5 bout 1/2 mile ahead, then 5 bikes and 3 people carriers packed with Sub machine guns!! and baseball cap wearing BiB!. Shirley if you want to transport a prisoner to and from yorkshire to nottingham u want something faster than a prison van!! especially as it sounds like the case is on for 8 weeks!

Haven't posted on here for a while, as keep seeing the same exciting cars, but this evening coming home from work spotted an Ariel Atom on the A46 in Lincoln.

A little bit further down the road was passed by a black Mercedes SLK55 AMG and it turned off onto the A57 twds Burton Waters

That was the very thing!

I followed him nearly all the way back to my house but he carried on up the A6.

Didn't know he was local!

Wrong way to be going home from Donnington, to anywhere really, but maybe.

Spotted on the A46 in Lincoln this morning on the way home from work -

Very nice T plated ZM Coupe in Estoril Blue - always loved them. Friend of my good lady in Leeds had one for a long while, but never got the chance to drive itcry

Black 997 Turbo, Edmondthorpe to Wymondham.

A steady 40 mph on one of my favourite bits of road seemed a bit odd.
