Ah yes. I didn't read that. Good to see some more locals around on here... I must get to some sort of meet.

I did say in my post I thought you were in an F430 - I am a car geek but even I would struggle to tell the difference from a set of headlights at night in my rear view mirror!

Are you based in town?

See a couple of posts up!

For once someone spotted you and not you spotting them from your truck smile

Good choice of black car with white smiley in the bottom right corner, it's a good look wink
I spotted a black ignis sport with ph smiley yesterday lunchtime on broad street , guessing the same one
Yup, that was me trying to get into town to met friends for lunch but arriving 30 mins late due to horrible Bristol traffic and rounding up an escaped cow on the way. It did serve to remind me why I never drive around town in the daytime.

Burnt orange colour Lambo, Station Road, Yate near Tesco Express today at about 3.15pm. Was doing about 25mph but sounded more 125! Awesome.

Also a green Maserati 4 door on the roundabout by B&Q Yate earlier same day, reg number G8 CEF I think?

Saw a red Ferrari on the A433 heading north towards Tetbury in the Westonbirt area yesterday afternoon. No idea of the model or reg, I was going a bit fast in the opposite direction at the time!! drivingyikes
This, too, was me. Twice in just a handful of posts...

Do recall seeing you!
Was on my way back from a TVR meeting, though I was in a red exo-skeleton BEC not a TVR. Nice bit of road that is (when no slow-coaches on it that is!)

Just checked out that Arancio colour, defo not the colour I saw, too 'orangey'. It was more like this...



And yet it looked more 'flat' reminded me a bit of the rat look that a lot of kids are going for now believe it or not! Maybe it was a matt version of the above colour but defo not Arancio, much duller and more like a burnt orange.

I am starting to think it had been wrapped?!

Arancio is Italian for orange, all the Lamborghini shades/hues of orange are arancio something.
E.g. arancio argos and arancio borealis.

My Toyota however, is orange. hehe

Yes I'm aware of that but I could not find the colour I saw in any of their Orange/Arancio paint listings and I looked at them all. It was a weird colour, at least it looked it as I was passing, and it looked very matt which makes me think it may have been a wrap. All the rage apparently! laugh

Between 6pm and half past tonight, on way back from Castle Combe area, was coming out of a side junction at Acton Turvill, a Rolls (Phantom I think) came past me and then decided to race me all the way towards the Cross Hands at old Sodbury!!!

He was shifting too and overtook two slower cars holding us up, then eventually waved me by. Niiiiiiice car, private plate, two digit number I think then something like KT or TT or similar to that. That guy could drive that big old barge I can tell you! However, I was in something as quick as a Radical or Ariel Atom so in fairness he stood no chance. Great fun though, being raced by a proper posh Roller!! If you read this dude, well done, fair play to you mate!!

Blue Maserati Shamal on the B3151 by Somerton
That was at Wilton at the weekend. Only blue one ever produced, apparently.
It was my Shamal you saw! (See pics). It's actually the only blue RHD Shamal in the UK. Only one other blue RHD Shamal exists, and that is in Australia.
