Parked next to a lovely BMW M5 (E39) outside Go Outdoors, in Brislington.
Saw a McLaren MP4/12C in Union Flag colour scheme on Gloucester Rd this afternoon.

Ferrari FF (orangey-red colour and a 2 number/single letter plate) on Lower Bristol Road in Bath this morning. I've seen it here before and it certainly brightened my Sat. morning, prompting an involuntary thumbs up!

A little black Nissan/Toyota near Plymouth on the A38 earlier. Did not expect to see you disappear so quickly- bloody fast car, made the Jag feel like it was stationary.

Today was the Federation of Historic Vehicle Clubs' Drive-It day.

Didn't see any 'classics' out on the roads while I was out and about in either the Trabant 601 or UAZ-469. Glad you did, though.

Best wishes, Colin

Saw a bunch of classic British cars this morning in the Street/Glastonbury area, probably about 20 strong.

Silver AMG E55 saloon crossing Clifton Suspension bridge early this morning. I was at the barrier next to it as it pulled away and it sounded great (if a bit too quiet).

If the driver reads this then I thought you might like to know that I don't normally turn left after the bridge but took a detour this morning so I could hear your car pull out of the next junction!
Must have been me! I don't normally turn left either but the road was shut due to the church spire at risk of collapsing on the other road smile

That road is open now. So if I hear you again I'll know which way to go!

Saw silver BMW M5 (E39) with aftermarket exhaust on. Sounded fruity and made my journey through Filton more pleasurable than it should have been. There was also a new black BMW M4 convertible behind it, which was quiet and had a huge backend.

Was it this one? (See pic)

If so, a guy i know and a group of his friends built this, it's a fantastic looking car. They also have a 90's megane maxi rally car and a turbocharged 306 gti6.

They always put in an appearance on the show stand at French Car Show. This year it's being held at castle combe.
