Potential spot this afternoon. Shell garage Cribbs Causeway at about 12.30, a black V10 BMW M5. Sounded lovely pulling onto the dual carriageway smile
May well have been my neighbour (We're in WSM),he's stickered up and very occasionally frequents the site!

He has a modded exhaust which does sound pretty damn good when lit up

Saw it myself. I don't usually go for modern stuff but it's pretty cool.

Have seen this a few times too, looks amazing.

Also saw an Alfa 4C, very nice.

Spotted a yellow and Black F430 on the kingsway today. From the look of the paintwork it may have been and MR2 kit just thought I would mention this spot as it's the first i've seen of this car local to me

Just spotted a white Punto Abarth coming through the roadworks on the A38, Plymouth. Looked very nippy!

Think i saw a white maserati Merak near Shaftesbury about 20 minutes ago.
It was definately a 70/80s supercar, in white.

I have rarely seen an actual supercar in Plymouth ever, only twice really;

1. An F50 driven through mutley.

2. A coke dealer used to have a white Gallardo.

3. A black DBS - is that a supercar though?

White 458, modified a bit, in Bristol centre at 2pm with a 458 number plate. Sounded lovely.

And I saw a (liquid?) yellow cerbera in Bristol just near the end of East Street at about 3.30 this afternoon. Would have loved to have followed it for a bit but the lights didn't go in my favour. Do love a Cerbera.

Saw a white 458 with a black roof on Winterstoke Road yesterday. Heard it before I saw it.

As above, would imagine it's the same one I saw. Did have a black roof and I could still hear it when it was well out of view in fairly heavy traffic!

Saw a black Alfa on the M50 yesterday, 90% sure it was an 8c but it was pretty far away. Might have been the first 4c I've seen. Did sound nice though.

I saw the white 458 in the centre of Bristol yesterday too, probably around the same sort of time. I was driving around yesterday in a filthy red S2000 with the roof down, stickered but probably too dirty to tell!

I saw the 458 also. I dropped of a delivery to the building site next to where it was.

Apparently, so I was told, it was the chapwho owned the shops friend and his job is to test all kinds of supercars to see what they are like in real life rather than on a track. True or not that would be one hell of a job!
