White Jaguar F-Type coupe spotted today around 12.15 heading up Standishgate/Wigan Lane in Wigan, towards the Swinley and Standish area. Wasn't going very fast, so managed to get a quick snap in time, though not a great one:

OK, so it was Betws-y-Coed but no one reads the North Wales section.

Hi there,

Thanks for that, just when I get the idea of buying a Clio Trophy out of my mind you post that pic.

Running off to search the classifieds now.

I was in that filling station a couple of weeks ago. The guy behind the counter was dismayed to hear my Golf R is reasonably economical. He asked, I didn't volunteer that info.

Do you miss it? Only had mine a few months and I think it's a right hoot!

Kind of, not because it wasn't good though it was great (I think I preferred my 200 Cup more though)

Mrs Tickle has the family car and I have opted for a two car garage these days, eco-daily and a weekend car (Elise S1 111s). The little Trophy wouldn't be 'special' enough for a weekend car and be wasted being used for my short boring A-Road commute.

If I was ever in the situation to have a one car garage again I would certainly consider one, they are fantastic and very reliable. They get a lot of attention by those in the know too.

Enjoy it and keep those SACHS fresh!

Hi there,

Popped into Knutsford to grab a sandwich earlier and spotted a very nice Mclaren 570S in the showroom of Mclaren Manchester.

First one I have seen in the flesh but I have to say its very nice. This one was LHD but a great looking car and if funds ever allowed certainly one I would have a closer look at.





sorry for the poor through the window pics

Regards

Tim

p.s and no posting more pics of the Clio Trophy has not helped at all :-(

I have only realised that the McLaren garage in Knutsford is called McLaren Manchester. How strange, it's not even in the same county.

Nice looking 570s though

Rather like Chester Porsche being in Ellesmere Port.

A 370Z waved at my yesterday in Manchester (I was in my GT-R). I did try and wave back but I spotted you too late.

If you head out of Knutsford about a mile towards Tatton Park, you'll come across either "Rolls-Royce Manchester" or "Range Rover Manchester" on the left, I forget which. Struck me as well.

It's probably so the footballers don't get confused.
