Presumably the person who needed a bus to get to the kerb..

Rather presumptuous to say ‘she’?

(But I agree with the general ‘abandoned, not parked’ sentiment)

Couple of Fiat 500s in Leigh Broadway today. One rather more interesting that the other.

I used to have a 500 like that, could stick my head out the roof!

Saw this Beetle a couple of days ago, and also a Urus about 10 mins beforehand on the A127.

Saw a few things yesterday, including this GR, which was just outside the border on the M25, but I'll put it in anyway.

F40 XXX in Finchingfield Saturday. Cracking car and what a sound!

Red 488 in beckenham this afternoon

Quite a spot today, an original shape 1950's Bentley Continental R Type by Mulliner, the one with the swooping rear back shape.

Floating along like a sweet fluffy cloud through Hatfield Peveral. It looked amazing!

Young guy driving in a polo shirt with a seat cover on, presumably taking it to a classic car workshop.

Yellow Murcielago just after 10 this morning, pulling out of Nags Head Lane and heading towards Brentwood. Sounded epic.

Very tidy, black 944 in Romford just now.

Porsche 914 parked near the Mercedes dealer in Beckenham this afternoon

Saw a Buick Riviera on the A20 Swanley by-pass yesterday morning.

[lukeharding]

Saw this on my way home yesterday.



Saw an R107 this morning, along with a V8V and a DBS in Brentwood.

Saw a DBSS a couple of days ago on the A127.

Chap in that TVR's making more of the day than I am.

Bright yellow '70's Beetle in Danbury this morning and a current shape Bullitt Mustang in Chelmsford city centre, early pm.

Also heard a Taycan pulling away from the lights yesterday - they make a really odd sound when moving off.

What sort of sound?

I've also seen a mk2 Jag and a frogeye Sprite near Brentwood, then this TVR also near Brentwood, and then a GranTurismo on the A127

[TCEvo]

Sort of spaceshipish. More than an electric whirr.

Not seen that wedge about before - cool plate.

Edited to add: also just seen a heavily modded yellow Lotus Esprit V8 in Chelmsford city centre.

And a final one for the day - new looking white Ultima being towed by a Mondeo through central Chelmsford.

That Marina's still doing good work.

Only one interesting one so far today: a black Fiat Dino Spyder (what a good looking car) in Heybridge, early pm.
