Ok I usually hate these kind of threads, but bloody hell WHAT A CAR!!

On the M40 heading into central London (past Spark Cars or whatever they are called), 60 plate Silve GTO with the yellow stripe and white number blob...

Incidentally, do people use Spark Cars? They have some very nice metal in there, including an SLS Roadster and a California...

His has a personal plate, so is not a 60 (unless it has since been sold).

Drive past there now and again some very nice cars as you say... Never heard of them on PH.

a grey GTO occasionally parks at the end of our road. The grey finish looks good covered in rain droplets

Good chance that silver GTO, yellow stripe, is a resident of K&C borough...I see it all the time (not Chris Evans) but a rather older gentleman who uses it daily.

good purchase for the elderly, does virtually everything for you. Ferrari's equivalent to a nursing home

I saw a 599 GTO drive round St Tropez port last year. Awesome sight in front of the yachts. Even at walking speed it made a great sound.

Definitley a 60 plate, the driver was certainly older than Evans, I'd say 50's/60's, lovely car, not too sure about the graphics though
