Hi there,

Spotted this stunning Orange Murcielago today at the junction of the A518 and A51 near Amerton in Staffordshire.

Have seen the same car near here once before.

Anyone here ????

Regards

It wasn't me but made me smile. On Sat evening I was out in Knutsford with 2 mates who both also had Orange Murcies. Quite a sight..

My mate Nick called me yesterday morning as he also spotted it in Stafford town centre. The no plate was 1 SH or something. He wondered if it was you Simon, but I told him that wasn't your reg no. Looks awesome though, three murcies in Knutsford that must have been a sight.

That Lambo was parked on Casino Square in Monaco not a week ago. Hes done some mileage then..A mate phoned me from there and thought it was me. There was a Porsche parked next to it with the same letters but the number at the other end. Flash git

1 SH something sounds suspiciously like Derestrictor's 993TT plate. Has he changed to a Murci and he's too busy enjoying the car to let us all know?

There was a lime green one kicking around Stoke at least a couple of years ago. There has always been a proliferation of exotica in the area due to the number of phone traders making large profits (or were, not been connected to that trade for a few years now and I think the IR cracked down a while ago)

Si,

Does you think he's trying to snatch your record for most miles in 12 months in a Murcie?

The green Murcie around Stoke was apparently spotted last week in Stone. One of the guys at the gym told me about it. Not seen it myself, anyone on here?

Andy,

I dunno he may be! Had the clutch done at the weekend. Took 3 hrs for the engine and transmission to come out, 1 hour to adjust the valve clearances (a pig of a job with the engine in), 20 mins to replace the clutch plate, then 4 hours putting it all back together. Got some good pics of the Murcie with no engine and it coming out if anyone can post em for me?? Anyway the clutch is so bloody light now I keep stalling it..

Hi there,

Yes that was the number plate on the car in the photo. The driver was certainly smiling, he must really enjoy that car.

it must be bad having an orange lamborghini, whereever u go people have seen u and post sightings of you on the net like in here!

what happens if u are having an affair with your wife for example?

i guess u just take the mondeo or something

my friend had a mazda 323f and he took off the mazda badges, and stuck a porsche badge on the front, and back, and people thought he had a porsche, even a dozy policeman who stopped us one time!

Surely that takes away the point of an affair?

I can put them up for you if you send them my way. Email me through me profile and I'll put them up.

Otherwise www.tinypic.com is excellent for fast uploading. Dead easy as well.
