I saw an Aston Martin DB11 in High Halstow while out cycling last Sunday. He was waiting to pull out of a junction as we passed. Sounded absolutely glorious when he floored it biggrin

Saw a nice Convoy of around 10 mostly German Dodge Vipers coming into Maidstone on the A249 on Thursday. Cant remember the last time I saw a Viper in the UK so this was a very welcome surprise.







They were coming over to meet the UK owners. They did brooklands on Friday then Silverstone Saturday and the pod on Sunday. They got a great picture of 30 vipers on the banking at brooklands. They're a nice bunch and have been great hosts in the past when they've organised meets in Germany which usually include a day on an airfield or private ring (full ring) use.

I was a few cars behind a red La Ferrari between Marden and Linton a few minutes ago, until it pulled into Linton petrol station.

I've been indoors at home for a few minutes now and as I started typing this heard it go down the Loose Road heading into Maidstone! biggrin

From outside the Wheatsheaf pub on Loose Road, Maidstone this afternoon I saw a dark green Triumph Stag, a blue E-Type Roadster followed a few minutes later by a pale yellow E-Type Roadster.

Also a brand new black Ford Mustang, which was virtually silent, Ecotec..? irked

Rather nice blue with white stripe Ford GT40 (the 2013 model) pulled onto the A12 from the Billericay exit, heading north to Colchester around 1pm today. Not seen many of them on the roads. Picture quality isnt the best !

Nice spot! I think I saw that one at Brewster motors getting some work done when I took my Up there. They specialise in GT's so possibly from there. Also have Mountune in Shenfield which is the only official GT certified service centre in the South of the UK

White with a blue flash? Received a text from my dad saying it thrashed it through their village this morning?

Looks to be SORN'd and only done 400 miles since 2006

An early (C reg.) red MG Midget near Linton yesterday evening.

Looked great de-bumpered and maybe slightly lowered.

Could be any British seaside town, they're all a bit past their use by date frown
