Mid-'60's Dodge Polara (I think) two door on the A12 today, late morning passing Ingatestone.

Happy Christmas all!

What colour was it? I saw a big American coupe going down onto the A127 before my last post.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Brown/goldish - was heading Brentwood direction, likely same one, cold & sunny; decent weather to be out.

Edited to add: just seen a current shape Toyota Supra, black/dark blue on Broomfield Rd, Chelmsford. Still so rare.

Ford Granada in beautiful condition (on an A plate IIRC), Billericay High Street turning towards Waitrose about 11am today. Lovely!

[lukeharding]

A short while ago in Brentwood....

[kiethton]

A few bits and pieces out and about today

Silver GT3 Porsche ??15 FLY in Edenbridge
Black Mazda RX7 in East Grinstead

[lukeharding]

An Arnage parked up on Brentwood high street earlier, then a 570GT going down the high street, and then an R8 on the A127. Also saw a Dodge Ram near the A130 this morning.

ETA a Stelvio QV this morning too, looked fantastic.

Superb blue late '60's 911 at the BP petrol station on Roxwell Rd, Chelmsford and an early S1 LWB Land Rover pick-up on the A12 passing Ingatestone, both pm today.

HNY all.

[lukeharding]

I saw a blue '80s 911 on the A130 on NYE, and an Evora S in Maldon on NYD (I think)

Also saw these....

Impressive dirt from the SQ7

That pub is one of the few places I’ve ever received a parking ticket, the spaces are divided up in a slightly sneaky way!

Yes I thought so too!

How are they divided in a sneaky way? I couldn't see any sort of parking restriction in front of the pub itself, just in the areas around it.

Saw a facelift Mulsanne in Brentwood earlier, then a white Huracan on the high street, and the WF Rolls Royce Phantom around Brentwood too.

There are about 5 spaces directly in front of the pub, 2-3 are actual pub spaces and at least two are home owner spaces or council spaces, and they are right next to each other and not really marked!

It's tradition to cruise through Maldon in barry boy style listening to your exhaust echoing off the buildings Mostly Fiesta's both then and now!

Of course I have never done this! Ever! One of the best was my Audi Quattro Turbo with no cats, one silencer and a 3" exhaust about ten years ago

there are always young guys doing circuits. Little do they know their cars are actually reasonably quiet compared to some

I wonder what Elton John was in town for?

[TCEvo]

Noticed a Ford Popular dragster/hot rod on a drive of a house on Braintree Road on the way into Witham earlier today & a black MB AMG GT in Chelmsford city centre yesterday; otherwise (unsurprisingly) thin on spots so far this week.

[lukeharding]

A three door Range Rover on a truck in a petrol station on the A127 last night.

[TCEvo]

First Toyota GR Yaris' today - bit of a cheat as they were outside the Chelmsford Toyota dealership. Two white & a red one. Looked great.
