Who was that in the Red Wedge (350?) along Billericay high street...? - I was the S that waved at the lights!

Oh, and when I was heading towards Stock, I THINK I saw a blue(ish) Tasmin FHC...! Anyone here?

P.S How did it sound? I,ve never let any one else drive it so I have always wondered what it sounds like as it passes.

Sounded pretty awesome... seem to recall both of us giving it a bit off the lights (in opposite directions!) and the whole of Billericay town centre reverberated (although I was able to hear your car over mine!)
