Something that must be extremely rare in the U.K. Saw a red Volvo XC90 in Swansea city centre today, but it was a v8!

Not only did I see a Tesla Model S (which aren't all to rare these days) but it was actually using the supercharger at Sarn services, perhaps their first customer!

Sarn services is a good spot to see Teslas, there were four there recharging a few days after the services reopened

Dirty, grimey Mercedes C class Brabus. May have been a C6S? Parked in Friar's Walk. Bet it made a great sound!

Saw a Morris Marina, a brown one, driving past Friar's Walk too.

Car looked very nice, sounded like you had cleared all the cobwebs from the exhaust. Are you local to Bridgend?

Don't drive it enough truth be told, get the oil around and its grins all around and a cold head. On Broadlands for me sins.

hehe.

Weather not the issue as such, it is the job. I see the breakfast meet threads and think I can make one then a job comes in. So I end up with mid week days off.

And I need a new hat, it was chilly in the slip stream.
