Stunning silver Ferrari TDF with blue strip in Cyncoed, Cardiff this morning. Brave man with the icy conditions. Sounded and looked amazing, numberplate matched the car too ending in TDF.

This afternoon on Northern Avenue heading out of Cardiff, a lovely black Lexus ISF. Big exhausts on it, which sounded great when the driver accelerated.

That could very well have been me. smile Last Friday the scameravan was near the bottom of the hill catching drivers coming down it in the rain and it was dark. Have to be very careful these days!

Black GTR on the A470 on to the Abercynon roundabout last Sunday, believe it’s been on the pistonheads runs.

It was your good self. Recognised it as an RB5 from a distance, told the missus who just looked at me, shook her head and muttered something under her breath.

There were at least 3 others around here but haven't seen them for ages. She's not a car person? What were you in?

She is a car person of sorts, she doesn't have an option. We were in a grey X3, its a 3l petrol so has pistonheads credentials. lol

Was talking to someone who was due to start his first day at the new St Athan place a few weeks ago. Is it open to anyone to have a look around?

I also saw/heard the GTR in Porthcawl this afternoon as well as a classic (C reg I think) Mini which looked and sounded fantastic!

Windswept much?

No sadly not, im a contractor. The offices are done and they have a lovely area with all the current models lined up

The paint area is like nothing I’ve ever seen, but the rest is quite a way off

I was there recently and the staff where having a appreciation day where they got to drive a rapide around.

It’s going to be mega when it opens.

I was in the glass-walled cafe by the Pavilion but also heard the GTR. We were going to go for a walk but it was too windy so didn't bother.

I did see an old classic Mini on Saturday I think, and from memory it was red, although I have seen a white one as well.

Pity, but at least there should be a lot more Aston Martins on the roads around the area in the future.
