Anyone know what the black thing making lots of noise in Hendy around 2pm Sunday 13th was? I caught a glimpse and thought McLaren, but I only saw from the rear glass backwards as it shot up the A48 from the Black Horse.

Possibly a Porsche 918. He lives near Hendy and isn't afraid to use the car.

Nice - it sounded awesome but wasn't an Italian or American V8, so I was left a little puzzled. I saw it very briefly, but I heard it for quite a while!

Loving it thanks. The Porsche was the best car I ever owned but the R8 takes it to another level.

Glad you're enjoying it, looks lovely and in the best colour. I bet it sounds the part, too! I've just had some new tyres on the Cayman, can't believe the difference, it's like it's on rails. Best car I've owned and always a sense of occasion every time I get in it.

I'll have to consider an R8 in a couple of years time then if it takes things to another level. Maybe I'll check back with you on running costs first though

Yes the Cayman is very responsive to different tyres. Enjoy, they are a great car.

Same one that was spotted in Swansea a month ago?

No idea mate. There are 3 or four in the area, not sure on the colours though.

That's a good proportion here considering there are apparently only 14 for the UK.

They only allocated two originally. A lot of demand for them it seems.
