No idea what sort, well apart from either a Murcielago or a Diablo, flew down the A23 heading for Brighton last evening as I was heading north, just caught a glimpse over the top of the central reservation.

Anyone here? (dry run for tomorrow perhaps?)

I thought Simon. For some reason Ive got the reg SG54 in my mind. I either saw it on the car last night or subconciously while I was on the bog this morning reading Evo's Fast Fleet :lol:

There is an Orange Murcie in the Brighton area, reg no 146 AC. I spoke to the chap in Calais last year on the way to le-mans, probably him. My mate who also lives in Brighton has also spotted him a couple of times on the A23.

Saw a convoy of roughly 10 Lambos ranging from Countach, Diablo, Murcie and Gallardo Spyder heading to Brighton this afternoon on M23/A23 and nearly soiled myself. Its been a while since I've seen one of these beauties in the flesh let alone a fleet of them!! One of the best sites I've seen in a long time and thankyou to whoever you were for brightning up an otherwise rather crap day

French registered white Countach and a grey err Diabilago (one of the two) going in to Brighton about 6pm.

Im going to try to resist the urge not to go terrorise them in the Cerb tomorrow

Hope the weather holds out for them all

I forgot, there was also a dark brown (I'm a bit colour blind so I maybe wrong) 350 driving into the city centre as I drove out just after 4. Bloody lovely car and never seen one in the flesh before.

On my way to work last night, I spotted a grey/silver Diablo and a blue Diablo roadster both on the M23 going south and on the M25 was an orange Murcielago with what looked like black wheels

Saw about a dozen Lambos in convoy on the A23 this morning near Ditchling.
One of them was an orange Murcielago, registered V12 ADD. Was that the one?

I know know who you are talking about Mr (insert bird type here). Last time I spoke to him he had a 911 Turbo cab.

Well, caught them all at J10a M23, followed them down to Burgess Hill where they got caught up in the High Street, so I sneakily went round the back and got down into Brighton to watch them come through. Then I realised they werent coming down the A23 all the way :roll: Did find Simonspider at the Devil's Dyke roundabout. Simon, I was the idiot shouting at you in the cerb

Also had someone in a nice Muira wave and point at me. He was either pissed off that my TVR was invading their space...or it was, I guess, Boss Cerbera saying hello
