I've spotted this convoy a few times up in this area - anyone else seen them?

Usually consists of:

  • White 'WRC' liveried Focus RS
  • Lotus Evora
  • Grey GTR
  • Black 997 Turbo
  • Audi R8 (V8)

but there is usually also the ocassional Fezza/Lambo/Aston in there for good measure.
Anyone on here?

Saw a different convoy going through Rhu / Helensburgh this morning - MX5, something ste, something ste, yellow S1 Elise (might have been my mate Rob, but he's down south I thought), something ste, black DB8 convertible, something ste, something ste, grey 911. Space until the next ste car, so I managed to jump in with the Alfa.

Thought that might have been the convoy you're on about, but clearly not.

Exhilarate seem to get around a fair bit! Usually makes for an interesting drive up past Lochearnhead in the summer though with them kicking around.

Anyone else spot their appearance on The Real Hustle? hehe

The "hustle" was that the cars were intended to be used as a static background in an "advert" they were filming with their arranged celebrity (Gemma Aitkinson, phwoarr) but ultimately they ended up nicking them I believe.

No matches at all, so I'm guessing not the same lot!!
