You're not wrong.

I then followed a Daimler Dart on my way home.

Followed a fantastic looking Ford Anglia with wide arches and fruity exhaust (suspect something naughty under the bonnet) from Sydenham/Penge area towards Beckenham but lost it at some lights.

What's happening on the other side of the pond this weekend? I was passed by every decent car in the country this morning on the way to Dover, started with the hells angels and then saw morgans, caterhams, tvrs, lambos, a x bow, some old astons, a db9, load of american muscle, a type 9 vw...

Made for a brilliant journey, think there must have been 50 cars in an hour

Does this count?, I past this brand new 14 plate Ferrari 458 at Dedham this morning on the A12, It had just been raining and it looks as if it was on a test drive, luckily no one was hurt, other than the drivers pride.
