Burgundy Marcos, I think it was a Mantula, on the M4 near Bridgend this morning, being foolowed by an XR2. Lovely looking Mk2 Lotus Cortina, white with green stripe, in Newport.

Escort Cosworth and Aventador in Ogmore-By-Sea this afternoon. My little girl was gutted, every slightly interesting car she sees, she asks "Is that a Lamborghini?!". She missed it! hehe

Bright pink Maserati in Llanishen yesterday lunchtime and a Couple of Astons in Lisvane. A silver DB9 and a Black convertible - unsure on the model.

Very bright shocking pink 16 plate Maserati Ghibli(woman driver) on Lloyd George Avenue yesterday. looks like something Jordan would have specced.
I seen that, albeit very briefly going the opposite way to me on the M4.

White Ferrari California driving behind TCW, surprisingly boring in comparison to some of the cars often spotted around here eek

Should have just had it wrapped pink. That's going take a massive hit come resale time.

Hopefully it's on a business lease so resale value and shifting the thing won't be so much of an issue.

I've met Lisa at a number of business events and she's really cool. She always wears bright pink outfits so the car suits her perfectly.

Was the Lamborghini a powder blue colour? Apparently a Lamborghini Aventador in this colour was going into Porthcawl about 5:45 yesterday. It's a rare colour so I'm wondering if it's the car that was in Williams Car Sales in Cardiff.

Did belong to Williams but has since been sold to another owner, still in the local area though.

Yes, I'd heard that it had been sold and is still local to South Wales. It's an amazing car, and I was lucky to have had a ride in it. smile

Clashes with her fake tan.

And, 35? Really. And the rest.

In the sky, not on the ground! Just saw a large plane flying over Bridgend with some sort of large satellite on top. Seen plenty of images of them but can't recall actually seeing one here before. Apparently it's some sort of early warning & control aircraft.

Yesterday in Bridgend two Jaguar F types, one coupe in black and a convertible, also in black sounding very throaty off the lights.

All Black Range Rover Sport SVR, in Neath, great looking beast!! I believe its the guy that owns/owned the "LE Ferari's" (Red Cali & now Silver F12). The plate it was sporting was on a Bentley GT a fortnight or so ago.

It was the powder blue one. Seen it a few times before.

Yes, looked very similar to that including the size. Can't remember if it was 2 or 4 engines though.

It is a wrap, she said so herself on Twitter.

It'll be an E-3 Sentry flying out of St Athan. There's a MoD maintenance facility there.

Just passed a black Ferrari 550 Maranello on the M4 by Celtic Manor. It was gorgeous. One of my all time favourite cars.
