Hi there,

I was on my way from Warrington to Telford today, travelling south on the M6 around 2pm near Junction 11. In the middle lane doing approx 80mph, when I see a Blue Gallardo in my rear view mirror approaching quickly. I pulled over and put my window down to listen to the superb car as it went past. Wow what a sound and what a stunning car.

Think it was you Andy, Blue Gallardo Reg No 37 AC.

All I will say is thank you for driving the car as it should be driven, made a boring journey a little better.

Regards

Tim

Andy,

I was driving my Rover 75 2.0 CDT, not very exciting I am afraid, but when you drive as many miles as me (45,000 miles per annum) you have to have something cheap and cheerful.

Tim

Hambo61,

Yep live in the Stafford area, Acton Trussell to be exact. Usual story, Own company, long hours blah blah etc. The lambo makes the most s..t day worthwile though.

Oggs,

Yep we were at Le-Mans last year, We met up with Simon Spider and his crew on the Friday for a cruise down the Mulsanne. Half way down, what do I see coming the other way an Orange Diablo reg 36 AC!! my brother in law said 'He's got your plate on that Diablo!!!'

Can't wait for this year, 6 weeks today and it'll be in full swing

Andy.

Andy I was with the 36AC.(Tony) Vmax crew
I saw and spoke to simon when we parked up on indy/arnage corner as he was parked opposite.

Going this year again, and you'll see the diablo there... But not what was following behind it last year.

You looking forward to Lemans then Andy?? Should be awesome, if you have a spare seat at any point could I grab a spin in it! If you see a Red Integrale around Stafford wave because it will probably be me as my G/F lives in Stone so not that far away!!

Autovogue,

Yes i know your dealership, a mate of mine just bought a blinged up 3 series from you guys. I do fill up on the sandon road with the old Optimax (£1.009 at lts yesterday!!!). As for an F40 in the village, I've never seen that. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled.

Hamb,

Nice to see someone in the village appreciates the concept of the supercar. Most of the other residents think I'm the scurge of the village as the quote one of them' Can you please slow down, you sound as if your doing 200MPH when you come through here' (actually doing 30MPH) Toss..rs!! I guess that's what you get when you live a in village where the average age is about 307 yrs old!

Depending on what time you saw me I was on my way to/from Cars in the Park with 10 other Lamborghini club members. Its days like that, that make aLL the shite days at work worthwile.

Andy.

Yep, we saw 37AC and made similar comments ...as Oggs said, 36AC should be there again this year, and no doubt we'll probably see you on Friday morning around Mulsanne / Indiannapolis / Arnage!!!! ....with hangovers!!!
