Good cars - driven fast

[shipley]

Pootling to work this morning in the Merc I spotted a set of Xenons approaching very quickly behind me. I was in a fast moving procession but was in no particular rush so pulled into the inside lane to let whatever it was past.

A black Bentley GTC shot past and lit up like a christmas tree as he braked behind the rear of the procession. I moved out behind him and followed him until the traffic cleared. At that stage he floored the Bentley and it really took off.

I've never seen one driven 'properly' before. It was a real demonstration of an expensive, powerful and swiftly driven car.

Sad I know but compared to the normal procession or badly driven crap it was a pleasure to watch.

• BTW, he was fast, but safe **
