A black Fezza FF and an i8, both in Dickens Heath village about 3pm Friday.

Saturday, yellow M4 heading north on the M6 between J4/5 about midday and a bright green Lambo Gallardo on the Fort Dunlop / Jag island at 1530 as I was coming out of the Jag plant. Only 400yds from the Lambo dealer scratchchin

Lots of shiny new Jag F types whilst waiting to tip in the Jag works wink

I really want to like the new XE. It looks a bit dumpy from the back end there though.

I also wanted to like the XE but from that photo, it looks very heavy and the styling is bland, in my opinion. In my opinion, the BMW F30 is still the best option for that segment.

I live right round the corner from there (awful parking and dhead-driving seems to be a characteristic of Dickens Heath), never seen an i8 though.

Seen an black Aventador around here few days ago looked so impressive among "normal" cars, also a beautiful dark Maserati GranTurismo.

Black KTM X-Bow followed by a very Orange Lambo Aventador bumbling through the centre of Stratford-upon-Avon Saturday afternoon.

Both very nice and not seen either in the wild before.

Aventadors a big bugger that's for sure.

Okay, not 'exciting' by any means, but I haven't seen one on the road for years. Proper old blokes car too, old red/brown/black carpet cut up and used as mats!

Chap down my road who likes to do a bit of off-roading in his Aventador - Can't help but laugh every time I hear it bumbling down the narrow road! biggrin

It's just one of those cars that looks terribly out of place in everyday suburbia.

Give me the old Triumph any day.




Okay not really.
