Happily giving it some lash in the DB9 today, loving the sound, get to my favourite bit of dual carriageway, plant it and i took off (I am currently in James Bond mode) Lost all the traffic behind me (well atleast i thought i did, Q - ego getting a pasting) Some volvo 240 in white overtook me whilst i was pushing on. He pulled in front at the next roundabout, we poodled through town, all the time me squinting looking for some sort of clue as to what engine hes got lying underneath. But from behind i just saw a D reg volvo with average width rubber and no exhaust, i beleive it has a side exit, but it was sitting low. After exiting town he over-took prettty dangerously, but wow it shot off, he didn't give it maximum stick until it was in a straight line. The thing had ot be pushing over 450bhp to have overtaken me the way it did

Is it anyones on here? If os details and pics required, i am very curious.

Reminds me of the time I was just about to over take that 'ratty old sierra' on my bike.

Admittedly it was wearing a Cosworth badge, but it looked ratty as hell and I was on a 600cc 100bhp bike which should have trounced him, instead it matched me.
