Irony day yesterday on the M4 by Llanelli... just after an AA flatbed being towed by a big Ken Williams recovery rig went past me on the other side, I realised that the RAC van I was catching up was being towed by an RAC flatbed... obviously not a good day to be a breakdown driver!

Was it a Transit Connect being towed? I passed an RAC Connect being towed by J45 yesterday.

Grey McLaren 570 GT and grey Bentley Supersport in Porthcawl at lunchtime today, black McLaren MP4 by Margam Village.

Did you see how bad the wrap is around the passengers front wing?

Wasn't that brave... would rather have scooped my eyes out with a rusty spoon...

White Astra GTE in Merthyr, Heading towards EE building, approx a fortnight ago, looked very clean.

Satin black old style hot rod (Ford?) in Bridgend today and a grey Lotus Evora. Over the last few days a red Jaguar F-Type V6 and a blue with black stripes Ford Mustang. Also saw a camouflage car in Cardiff on Swedish plates and lots of recording gear on the back. Still can't work out what it was.

A Dodge Viper with the plate P8 VPR in the retail park in Pontypridd on Monday.

Sounded quite underwhelming considering the huge V10 under the hood. Looked nice though..

Just saw an absolutely stunning Lamborghini Huracan in a sort of satin orange with black trim by Tesco Bridgend. May have been a Performante, not sure. Number plate was something like F4STA but it's not that as it's on a Renault. First one I've seen on the road and it looked incredible.

Apparently its a rental car, although a few have commented it belongs to Ben Phillips, well known internet prankster from Bridgend. It looks like a Vorsteiner bodykit, certainly eye catching.

Never heard of him! Yes that's definitely the car and, as you say, it's a standard Huracan LP610-4 with a bodykit on it, not a Performante. Do you have any more photos of it?

That is the black 918 that has been in Swansea for a while, it was wrapped recently, has a GE numberplate.

Not my pic lol. If you google #fas7a there are more pics of it around the UK. Also shows the McLaren the plate was on before.
