Damn!

I was trying to make the first spot of the year by going for a blast in the 355 this morning. Though it was maybe too quiet to get spotted!

Had a drive to Whitby yesterday: Via Wet Wang, Malton, Pickering on the Moors roads, Destination Magpie Cafe for Fish & Chips. lick

Spots:-
Aston Martin DB7
Land Rover Discovery Camel, yellow, looked well equipped for proper off-road use.
VW Varient custom, bright yellow. parked up in Whitby, looked very cool.
Porsche 996 Turbo, silver, parked up in Whitby.
New Scirocco, dark blue, petrol station coming out of Whitby, 1st I,ve seen, looked great in the metal.
Porsche 996 Turbo, silver, cut me up on the round about (showing off) at the top of the Beverley bypass, lovely looking example but owning a nice car shouldnt make you act like an arrogant cock it gives us all a bad name!

a friend of mine took his Gallardo SE to the Monaco GP last year and spent £576 on petrol. He also has a Murcie+CarreraGT+430, so I don't think he felt it smile
