A DeLorean on Somerford Road, Christchurch at about 14.00 today. Don't think I've ever seen one on the road before.

Grey Mercedes A45 on the Spur Road this evening at about 17.45, with the smaller wheels and more subtle body styling, could be considered a sleeper, especially compared to a certain 'Red Devil' wink

I saw that Noble, about 6 or 7 times as he kept driving up and down the main road along the promenade at Brighton today. We were watching the speed trials.

Also saw a good few TVRs driving about in town.

Saw a Chimaera in on the Lyndhurst road today too, entering Lyndhurst.

Finally, I chatted to a Griffith owner who had fitted a steering wheel lock to his car but had left the keys at home so couldn't remove it. Doh! Glad to see you got it off eventually.

Mine is getting louder and more antisocial with every passing mile. I was positively unpopular in Bournemouth the other day and I love it.

Lots of jap stuff heading south and West om the M3 /M27 and A31 just now. Think I may have passed Andy Gent in his picnic table (some sort of rice burner attached to the front of it) coming in towards ringwood.

Anybody else seen an influx of Belgian plated cars on the roads around West Sussex over the last couple of days? Lotus, Porsche etc? Quite a few of them have 'Cotswold Rally' plaques on them too?

Too much to remember today. Auto jumble at Beaulieu. A very nice 280 Pagoda stuck in my mind near Wickham.
