I have seen the camouflaged Lotus Evora for a few months now. I live a few miles from Heathal so maybe I should expect to see it...... lol
It was parked in the Lotus car park last Saturday.

Approx 50 Elises travelled from Stratton Motor Co to Hethel via A140, A47, A11 etc to Hethel to celebrate the 20th birthday of the Elise and no one spotted them, grrrrrr.

Lovely original Renault Clio Williams late Monday night in Norwich city centre, going up Grapes Hill.
It looked to be in fantastic condition, and going by the unusually relaxed driving style for a hot hatch, the owner wants to keep it what way thumbup

Was driving down bedford bypass towards St neots on Sunday about 5 or 6 pm. Was in an estoril blue bmw 840 ci and saw two 8 series (one looked like an alpina) a ferrari 430 and a few other fat cars heading towards bedford in convoy. Also saw 2 other ferraris at buckdon services.

Anyone know what event we missed?

There's about 5 Morgans I see driving around cranfield including an aero 8, a +4 and an aeromax, they seem to be coming from the Nissan centre there, I don't think they're owned by engineers as I see them doing circuits of cranfield daily, perhaps Morgan have some sort of tie up with them?

Seen a few Bentley 4x4s thumping round milbrook without any camouflage on, I can't decide if they look good or not though.

Kimbolton was on Sunday, not far west of St Neots, so they could well have been there.

Interesting place to park, in between the Bird's Eye factory and an abandoned static caravan park, right next to old fishing net stands.

Lovely motor though and a rare sight in these parts!

I have parked mine there when visiting Birds Eye so guess it is probably a Birds Eye supplier. It's not a good car to turn up at a customers factory in, especially when negotiating.

Not in east anglia as such, but worth a mention. I'm working in a lovely village by Rutland water and so far have seen a brace of mercielagos, (pink and orange), then 15 supercars (at least 2 aventadors, a 458, Tvr, amg,hurracan etc) from the scd club heading to a Photo shoot apparently, then a couple of days later an Enzo (I think Mr b) with another car I didn't see, but I'm told was his p1. Not a bad lot within 1 week.

There were some beautiful cars there. The old silver Aston was quite something. I was foaming at the mouth.
