Too many things to list around Alderley Edge today, highlight being a PHer's stunning yellow Aventador SV Roadster outside Piccolino. Saw it again coming towards me on the road, just stunning.
Awesome car, in a great colour

One of the best cars I've seen on the road, especially in yellow. There was a black McLaren 12C outside Piccollino as well, wasn't yours was it? Think it was a coupé though.

Yep that was me (spider) popped into have quick drink with the SV owner, one thing he is not shy of is putting miles on it, he was just back from spa, popped up to manchester for a night out and then quick lunch before drive back down south.

1,200 miles in 5 days .....but then again there is no such thing as junk miles in a SV roadster.

I actually recognised your car (and dog) on s9 just after asking if was your McLaren so guessed it was after all. Definitely no such thing as junk miles in a car like that and it's always good when they're owned by genuine enthusiasts like him. Love it.

Unusual to see a modern-ish Morgan without a "MOG" registration.

was behind a white aventador on the way to the M60 through partington and carrington in the early rush hour today. Short reg mark. Think seen it before around altrincham type area. There's only 2 or 3 opportunities to overtake in about 6 miles down that road... he saw his oppo and took it! I was 5 or 6 cars back and heard it quite loudly with the windows shut!

Everytime I've been to Alderley Edge I've seen the square root of fk all.

Tried weekends, nice sunny weather, mornings, afternoons, evenings and seen fk all.

Is there a specific time when they all come out to play?

I'm not the type to go 'spotting' and I've only been to AE a few times but every time I've seen cool stuff. I thought it was hard not to see anything!!

We tend to start in Wilmslow and take a walk to AE. Just walk around and sit outside Costa. Things just turn up.

The sun seems to be bringing a lot out today in the centre of Manchester, so far to pass my office, 1 bright Orange 12C Spider, 2 650's (one silver one blue), a 675LT in blue, a red (possibly SV?) Aventador, a Grey 'Crome' effect R8 that sounded nice, but sound wise they where all out done by two White RS7's racing along, incredible noise, accompanied with all sorts of crackles and pops.

Spotted a lovely dark red Jaguar F-Type coupe this evening sat on a driveway near Eccleston Park train station.
On Wednesday evening I saw a totally Mint dark blue E-Type Coupe joining the M55 from the M6. The cleanest I have ever seen by far

Some interesting spots today:

Dark blue Triumph GT6 spotted heading along Miry Lane (near Poundstretcher) in Wigan towards Newtown around 12noon.

Goldish coloured Aston Martin (no idea what model possibly a DB9) parked in front of a row of shops just off Ormskirk rd in Pemberton town centre.

Blue rubber bumper MGB roadster (hood up) parked up in Ormskirk town centre, and left hand drive.

Also in Ormskirk. Green Morris Minor Traveller.

Turquoise-blue-ish Rover SD1 spotted at the petrol station on the Kew retail park in Southport.

A lovely 924 in white with the Martini stripes and a Le Mans 24 hours sticker and a very generous black new Vanquish Volante driver who rode alongside me and my friend on the motorway and then booted it when we gave him the thumbs up before coming off the motorway for Skelmersdale last night.

Thank you to either for brightening my evening if you're on PH.

Spotted a red Mk1 mx5 top down on the M56 on the way home, it looked great. I miss my old one so much.

Lovely green Aston, possibly a DB6 on Warburton toll bridge early this evening.
