…is bright blue (similar to Scooby blue), which is about all I can say for it. It was also being driven by a complete Southbound on the A84 about half an hour ago - the sort of idiot who pulls a three-vehicle overtake directly at an oncoming vehicle (me) at a point where it's both bloody obvious that an overtake isn't on and where even a well-ridden superbike would not have attempted anything. If I hadn't seen it coming BEFORE he started the maneouvre, it would have been the second serious head-on in that exact spot in recent months. And it isn't like he couldn't have seen a sodding great Panamera with 10 LED driving lights, dipped beam and, shortly thereafter, main beam on.

But here's the kicker for him: I run a dash cam, and if either I or the Police can confirm the registration from the HD video, he can expect a richly deserved knock on the door.

HD Video?

AS Paddy McGuinness would say 'Let the rubber see the duck'.

Now this is embarrassing - after posting my first rant, I went off to download the video from my phone: only to find that the dashcam app I use (iSym DVR) doesn't restart the video after receiving a phone call, so the video in fact cuts out about 10 minutes before my encounter with Mr Numpty. I'm however pretty sure of the registration so if he's a local, I will just have to settle for visiting direct and personal retribution should I ever spot the little fker again.

Sorry about building up the anti-ci-pation of juicy video - should have checked the camera before posting. Sheesh…

There are no blue cars registered with any version of that registration. Most are trucks, a few scooters and a red Boxster.

How interesting - I'm pretty sure of the MX07 bit but wasn't 100% on the last bit - i'd be fairly sure about the D, but you'll understand that I had limited time for observation… …thanks for checking though.

Putting Brian under suspicion, you should be ashamed wink

OP sorry your video wasn't running as scrotes like this deserve what will come to them one day, with hopefully no innocent party involved.

If I get a chance I'll substitute the Y for an X and try again. smile
