The South West spotted thread!

[GavGav]

Saw the white F430 heading out of Weston on the weekend. Didn't think I'd like a white 430, but it really is stunning. Not seen it since last year either.

Have seen a new Lotus Europa around too lately.

[RemaL]

Spotted about 7:45AM today a black Arial Atom in Hanham Bristol. anyone here

[AngryApples]

Decent weather appears to be bringing the "girls" out then?

two things I don't normally do,

1. respond to spotted threads
2. undertake

but to the guy driving the black 106 with a ph smily on the back, what the fk were you doing in the outside lane of the A38 this morning at 42mph when the inside lane was clear as far as you could seee? or did you not see the queue of traffic behind you?

Completly unrelated to the 106 spotting, but Mr. Flow, are you a smallish, slightly balding fellow?

IIRC- look slightly like the dude from Master Chef...


The reason I ask, is a fair few months back I was enthusiatically driving my Vectra down the A38 when I got ovetaken by a White 997- what I thought was a GT3...


fk that thing was quick!

Whilst I might drive quickly down the A38, not quick enough to loose my hair!
Turned it a shade of grey, but still have a head full.
And yes, GT3's are quick!

V8 APE V8 vantage roadster going down towards Matford roundabout from Countess Wier way on the back of a recovery lorry, is this anyone's on here?

[LordGrover]

Moose. Am I missing something here?

Is this is a thread for PH cars - i.e. those with stickers, not just shiny metal?

Most of the 'individual' marques have their own spotted forums/threads TVR and Fezza/Lambo/Bug so I expected this to be pukka SW PHers.

[Moose.]

Yeah, initially I figured this thread would for cars spotted with PH stickers on. However, can't see why folk can't post about a tasty motor spotted in our region

[Fidgits]

considering i dont have any PH stickers on my car (or anywhere i can put them) i dont think i'll get spotted anytime soon

Z4s haven't got a boot, bonnet, windscreen or rear screen then?
You're not trying Fidgy - get stickered up.

I've got a PH tax disc holder..though it might be a bit hard too see that from the outside

Spotted a Mark 2 golf ( i think maybe mk3) at eastgate retail park at the weekend. very stickered up, including some ph stickers.

I've seen that one. They were a bit surprised when I oversteered into position behind them one day

[DKL]

Spotted Mr Haggerty in his red 964 leaving Intel yesterday. I would have waved but was on the bus

What was even more interesting was a light blue (I think) Carrera 3 or SC in front of him. That was very nice.
Come Adam what was it and who's is it?

[AngryApples]

Right,

I'm now stickered up and my aim is to get spotted!

[splodge s4]

Dirty, black Golf GTI, stickered up with a big PH smiley on the back, going around the roundabout by St Annes half hour ago.

Who dat den?

There are a few Porsche folk here at work As well as myself & the Carrera 3.0, there's a 993 C4S, a 993 C4, a 996 or two and a bright orange 997 GT3RS , although that one isn't here every day!

I've spoken to a couple of the owners, they're good guys
