Around 10:30 pm tonight, yellow Mk2 Escort, I only saw the back of it but I think it was an RS2000, going up Cripple Street (yes, I know!) just outside Maidstone.

A couple of nice spots today.
Red 458 in Biddenden High Street at about 3.40.
Then on the way home about an hour later, was overtaken by a silver TVR Sagaris going up Bluebell Hill.

Anyone here?

Grey Ford GT in Eynsford this afternoon, sounded lovely

Then saw what looked like an older ford GT in red around the corner from the flat (kit car?) in Poverest, Petts Wood... looked good!

There was one on show at Leeds Castle over the weekend, so you probably saw the real thing.

No need to move the posting. Pete (the doughboy in the 340R) confirmed it was him - we're in Rainham. That's the Kent version, not Essex, before anyone gets uppity. wink

White Mercedes SLS convertible with the plate 12X in the Billericay hand car wash on the weekend. Seriously mean looking piece of kit. Just gutted I didn't hang around to hear it pull away.

Bentley Brooklands (coupe) this morning coming into Chelmsford on Essex Regiment Way - smaller Bentley's pretty common around here but that one stood our as a bit of a rarity (appears that they only made 550 of them).

Edited to add I saw an classic Morgan three wheeler (not the cool modern version) heading into Chelmsford on the A414 at about midday.

Utterly irrelevant to the thread but that shop is where I had my paper-round as a teenager.
