Not strictly about the racing but I often see a Mercedes Britcar 24 hour Safety Car driving between Farnham and Bordon and was just curious if it was the actual safety car or just a liveried up lookalike?

Yeah, there are/were? two and both drive on the road to and from events so it's pretty certain to be one of them.

The Britcar office is based somewhere on the Hampshire/Surrey borders so I regularly see one of the Safety Cars pottering around Farnborough.

Pottering isn't a word I'd usually associate with my brother in laws driving...

To be fair Ive only ever seen it pottering too, but thats in 5-6pm traffic around Bordon which although not of London suburbs proportions, is sufficiently busy to prevent very much use of the throttle.

Anyway cheers for the responses chaps, just curious really.
