Morning all. My neighbour posted this on Facebook and her ten year old son and his friend really want to know what came zooming past them last night!!

It was the M5 near Worcester after dark last night I believe - wasn't anyone here was it?!?

That Radical is the closest I think. I thought Caparo to start with but the spoiler is attached in the centre, not the end. Don't the rear wheel arches look more detached in the photo compared with the picture of the Radical?

I think that's just down to lighting/shadows or the carbon air intakes.

But worse, they have a cat tax disc holder.

Or they could be passing someone, don't be so quick to judge.

They just passed the car that took the pic and then moved back to middle lane, what's to say they then wasn't moving to the left hand lane ....the picture is but a mere moment in time.

On an almost totally empty road like the one posted, is there really an issue driving in lane 2?

They pulled into the middle lane to photograph the car better who, seemingly immune to your expert Solomon-esque judgement, was hogging the middle lane...
