Now that's got me perplexed. Normally, I'd say "The plate is worth more than the car" but as only value in the plate is to an FSO owner......
Yuve got to give that guy full creditlaugh
Maybe he used to have a Ferrari F50 but fell upon harder times. hehe

Few for me this am - Jaguar C Type being road tested in Maldon from JD Classics - looked like the gold JDHT trust racing one; ultra cool.

Black Diablo & red 328 in Hoyle Fox's yard next door to JD's, red Marina in Maldon on Station Road and a red 458 heading through Danbury (Maldon bound).
They were outside Terry Holyes this morning.
I'm almost making up reasons to go to Tec Supplies at the moment so I can do a lap past JDs at the moment.
Gorgeous midnight blue XJ220 sat outside there for the last 2 days. It's on gold wheels and looks amazing.
I'm in Maldon quite often & usually swing past those two. I also have a nosey at GPR off the Causeway - they have the occasional RS200 sat outside.

Few more for me today so far. Followed a light blue 430 Scud into Essex from Ipswich up the A12 circa 11:30.

Filled up a little later at a Shell PFS on the A12 where there was a dark blue TVR S1 just leaving drivingthumbup, spotless gunmetal S1 E-Type Roadster then pulled in driven by an older chap.

Later in the day an Austin 7 parked on a verge in Harlow near the Burnt Mills estate and a Lotus Europa (new shape) pulling into an office complex, also in Harlow.

Was overtaken by a silver 996 GT2 earlier on the B2244 (A21 back road).
The 'blap' on the up-shift is so good biggrin

Saw this nice M12 this morning on the M20:


Then a slightly less welcome undercover cop car a few minutes later! (LR12 ZGJ)


This has also reminded me I need to update the time on my dashcam, it's still on GMT!

M12 WTF? If so, the same car just drove past my house. Registered on PH I believe, same user name as the reg.
