tty weather to be driving an X Bow about in at the moment.
Not much interesting for me this week so, although saw a Ferrari 550 near Great Leighs earlier & overtook a 2CV / Dyanne 6 on the A130 this morning on the way to Braintree.
If the '550' was silver, that was me in my 575....around 3pm...I followed a nice RS4 past the racecourse....tty weather to be driving an X Bow about in at the moment.

It was & I might've seen the RS4 as well. Is there an easy way of seeing the difference between a 550 & a 575 (serious question)?
Saw a matt black current shape Exige in Chelmsford today & a black Corvette C5 on the A12 at Witham later on.

Bigger airscoop on bonnet, 575m badge on boot...easiest way is that window switches are on door on 550, on centre console in 575...and of course there are very few manual 575s. But on the road it is nigh on impossible to tell unless you see that badge on the boot. RS4 was blue and gave it some beans when he saw me following him...Is there an easy way of seeing the difference between a 550 & a 575 (serious question)?

A couple of motors that caught my eye while out for a sunday hoon, A "Q" plate caterham looking thing in bromley on sunday morning, you looked a bit chilly mate 
also a silver carerra 996 spotted yesterday afternoon ( reg something like 72 DR ) , we came off the M25 together heading towards bromley/orpington. After we both gave it a bit of poke you seemed to loose a fair bit of oil out of your tail pipes followed by lots of blue smoke, hope the motor was ok .

Surprised to see an Aston DB6 on the (Chelmsford direction) A130 in the pissing rain this morning.
I think I saw it on the A127 heading towards Southend so perhaps it was heading down to Shoeburyness for a service etc?Gassing Station | Kent & Essex | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
