Recent gen Corvette, possibly a Z06 with all the vents and spoilers, on the M4 near Swansea early this afternoon.

Spotted a nice Huracan Performante in Cardiff on the A469 Caerphilly Road. Bold move taking it out in that rain!

They are very very ‘sticky’ in the rain, I test drove the demo Performante with the dealer in the heavy rain around November 17- you can see how wet the roads were from the photo- it sticks to the road like you wouldn’t believe even in the worst conditions.

Heading west near the Newport tunnels yesterday, a bright yellow S3 Lotus, could have been Elise with hardtop of Exige but it was too quick for me to see. Looked nice though.

Tuscan or Sagaris??? As I did that journey in my Sag Sunday morning at about 8.15am on my way to the rugby club to watch wales lose to South Africa

No pics but I stopped and watched a very nice black lexus LFA drive by in Llandaff North Cardiff this morning. I've seen a few of these recently and every time I'm almost shocked by how good they look.

Pretty sure it was a Tuscan.

I love the Saggyarse so I'd have been super excited to have seen one.

Are you referring to the Lexus LC500? The LFA is incredibly rare in the UK, less than 5 units IIRC.

There is a lovely black LC500 in Rhiwbina, reg. FOR 60T.

Big black Hummer H2 or H3 near Pyle this morning. Dark grey Maserati Ghibli also in Pyle, light grey Maserati GranTurismo in Bridgend and a red Jaguar F-Type with a black soft-top.

Just saw a beautiful white Lamborghini Huracan Performante Spyder on Bridgend Industrial Estate.

Ah yes. That's the car, I couldn't remember the plate until you posted.
Right, I've not heard of the LC500 but I've seen a few of them. Just presumed it was the LFA.

There’s more like 12- 15 LFA’s in the UK now.

Fair play! I’ve never driven a lambo so I cannot comment. Suppose it shows how far cars have come

I drove past that yesterday, it was painful to see such a nice car in that condition. I think it was a Weissach package as well although I’m not sure

Apparently it did have the Weissach kit fitted.

This GT2 RS was parked up in Cardiff OPC on Thursday when i picked up my new RS..I noticed that the offside marker light was missing and some minor damage by the rear of the front lower wheel arch.It was bought from Aberdeen OPC recently and had IIRC 18K miles on the odo.
It was a Weissach pack car..The junction where it happened i know well and you have to take extra care to your blindside to watch out for joining traffic.I really feel for the owner of the car as it could just has easily been me in my RS only 24 hours previously.

Silver DB11 joining the M4 by Llandarcy yesterday midday. Yellow Gallardo spyder on Fabian way.

Silver E55 AMG (w210) barrelled past me on the A465 towards Hirwaun a few hours later. Haven't seen one in years and nice to know it was being driven properly lol

[SwissJonese]

Lovely new Black Aston Martin Vantage on Cyncoed Road, Cardiff this morning, Sorry if I was staring whilst walking the dog but it did sound lovely.

Also a lady regularly drives a white Lamborghini Huracan on the same road.
