The Kent & Essex Spotted Thread!

[TCEvo]

Lots out over the weekend - good to see. Three stood out for me: bright yellow '69/'70 Ford Mustang heading towards Weeley on Sat pm, followed grey late First Gen Camaro heading towards Hertford End yesterday pm and a brown Renault 25 on a drive in Clacton - can't remember the last time I saw one of those (pic to follow).

I saw a Dawn near Danbury or Latchingdon over the weekend, and a car that looked like an Ariel Atom but wasn't.

Actually that was the one I saw - it wasn't an Atom

Mk1 Mondeo Estate!

Very rare now, and this was in great condition..... apart from the missing trim

[lukeharding]

Also forgot I saw a 550 Maranello on Sunday evening near Woodham Mortimer

Glad I'm not the only one who notices these - early ones are getting very rare. My parents had a '96 Mondy in silver similar to that blue one.

Witham this morning & a green Aston DB7 Volcante and a VW Microbus on a low-loader. Back to Chelmsford on the A12 & 2x MGB's another VW Microbus. Also drove past a garage in Kelvedon & noticed a silver TVR Tuscan and a Lotus Exige MK1.

Another decent weather day so expect to see more later on in Maldon: edited to add saw a yellow 2CV & a black AM Vantage V12 in Danbury this pm.

Just spotted the most beautiful Mercedes 280SL pagoda on Epping High St - cool plate as well: "280SL".

[lukeharding]

Saw some sort of pre war MG near Warley yesterday, and a white (with vinyl roof) Silver Shadow 1 coming off of the A127 at the B186 shortly after. Also saw a new Cayman GTS on the A127, and this morning a mamba green Taycan. Not seen one in that colour before. Looked great!

[TCEvo]

Blue Alpine A110 passing Chatham Green this morning - possibly the same (and only one) that I've seen to date, first spot of one driving though. Toyota FJ passing Great Leighs shortly afterwards, and back in Chelmsford & a black Ford Mach-e on Broomfield Rd.

Nice RS6 spotted yesterday at the Shell Garage in Blackfen.....lowered with some tasty mods and probably running a straight pipe as it sounded like thunder!

[Koolkat969]

Very Clean low mileage E36 328i spotted at Shell Blackfen a few weeks back. Lady driven and got a few appreciating stares.

[TCEvo]

Mate of mine had a very similar 328ci to that one - corking car, getting very thin on the ground now; that one in the pic looks good.

Lime green Lotus Europa. Billericay. Midday.

Has anyone in Billericay spotted the lads on the Potash Road roundabout taking photo of cars. I think there are several of them. They're not doing any harm

[TCEvo]

Haven't noticed them, but last time I used that roundabout was in pissing rain in mid-May.

Another one for today: Tesla Roadster outside a dealership on Westway, Chelmsford - don't think I've ever seen one of those.

[lukeharding]

An Alfa 4C Spider on the A12 yesterday evening.

[phil1967]

E30 M3 on left, broken DB5 on right. A21/M25 near Badgers Mount.

Good spots......the Joys of classic car ownership.
Was on that same road earlier today and spotted a very nice red 930 turbo and various other classic cars as I headed towards Brands Hatch but no pics unfortunately. Got to remember to mount my dash cam from now on.

[TCEvo]

Lots out & about this weekend, inc an Alfa 145 (rarity of these came up on here a couple weeks ago) coming off the A12 @ Colchester McDonalds - stood out amongst modded VW's.

A cheat this one since it was at a cars and coffee but really do have a soft spot for this and the HSR....

I fancied one of those as a teenager!
