SAS Spotted Vol 2

[Benjo42]

Silver S reg DC2, rolling on black ~15", clearly modified motor as it didn't seem much slower than my Kwaka zx9r on the way to work, alongside the M4 down the B3270 and Lower Early way between Reading and Winnersh.

Nice smooth and well paced driving much appreciated view. Asked what power but couldn't make out the answer

2 yes 2 i8's parked in Farnborough train station car park side by side yesterday and today.

They are regulars. Reserved, season ticket 'Premium' parking bays. Their previous cars were a Maserati and a Tesla.




The registration plate on the one on the left used to be on the Maserati, which I used to see a lot in the mornings, on it's way to the station. I've not seen the i8 'on the move' yet, though. There's also another i8 (in quite a dull looking dark grey colour) which parks in Winchfield Station car park. They seem pretty popular as station commute cars in this particular area. I didn't like them very much at all, at first, but the blue really suits the car so it's growing on me a bit.

There was a 4x4 of some description, didn't notice what, parked there this morning (right hand one), so I am guessing the Mrs borrowed the space, as a lady got out.

I'm a Daily Farnborough commuter too, strange that I'm probably stood shoulder to shoulder with another PHer most mornings and have no idea.

Also cant believe nobody has posted that they spotted my car at the station yet, its not exactly subtle at the moment

Not daily Keiran thank god, I very occasionally have to work in London, yesterday was one of those days.

Focus ST (5 Cyl), and a Corsa VXR tearing it out of Blackwater last night at 10.15 ish on the A30 towards Basingstoke.

Focus sounded awesome.
I would have given chase, but my petrol light was on. :-(

I've done the school run in Farnborough for the last 3 years, only last summer whilst getting back in the car, somebody else from the school (who I'd seen almost everyday) asked who I was on the forum, I'd forgotten about the sticker on the back of the car!

I've got another one on the back of the 3 series, but I travel Reigate to Camberley now

Pretty rare in blue. There were about 60 ten years ago.

Would that happen to be a red 3 series?

[Vixpy1]

I drive past Farnborough station every morning and evening

Out for a walk last night in Walton/Shepperton and spotted a Mclaren MP4 + 675LT in convoy. Then 30 mins later - I saw another convoy of MP4 + 675LT! Different cars, not the same going round the local roads.

This was at 7:30 - 8:30pm - could they have been test drives?

Orange Tamora in Pinkneys Green this afternoon - beautiful!!

[rasto]

Followed a silver Monaro with Le Mans stickers on the doors out of Victoria Way car park in Woking today, no PH sticker but may be on here?

Meadows roundabout a little earlier. Developing a bit of a thing for these now.

675LT is released on the roads yet. There are a few on trade plates which some of the guys drive to test how they are, quality etc and will then be used as press cars etc by the company. They look great in all colours, but I think napier green is stunning

Thanks for clearing that up.

They look amazing - so low to the ground too! I also love the exhaust/rear of the car.

... he's just content to drive about with the spoiler extended. Tantamount to walking about the place with your willy hanging out.

Elemental RP1 in yellow around Dunsfold and Haslemere at the weekend.

Didn't see it at the Supercar event but spotted it out and about on the roads.

Looked fantastic! If the owner is on here, can you get in touch please? I want to compare it to my 2-11!
