What, kids and a car?

Nobody said you weren't. I think it's great if people are taking their kids out in their supercars, must be exciting for the children.

I believe thats the car a lad from Bridgend won the other week in a FB competition. Saw and heard him last night out and about.

Black Rolls Royce Ghost near Pencoed this morning, blacked out Bentley Bentyga near Crack Hill in Bridgend late morning.

The Bentayga also owns the converted mill on Tyndall Street East in Cardiff, the place is called The Maltings and they are shared offices. I used to work for a company which had their Cardiff office in that building and occasionally the Bentayga would be parked right out the front. I was a lovely purple with a cream interior if my memory serves me correctly.

I am a HUGE fan of the 720S and I am usually a HUGE fan of bright McLaren's but in my opinion the colour and car combo there has failed drastically. The bright colour makes it look a bit "try hard" and dare I say even ugly?

The pic has made up my mind though - I'll definitley be buying a black one when the time comes hehe

To be fair it does look great in black! I must say though I'm more impartial to the white 675LT Spyder on their stocklist.

The yellow one is a bit of a weird example for colour combos as because it's in Swansea, I'm more intrigued by the fact it's a 720S in Swansea so I kinda feel forced to like it, whereas if I was back in London I could go '10 720S in 1 day, 1 not photographed as the colour is dreadful!' lol

Has a good day of spots today. Saw a yellow Caykan GT4 on the M4, it was heading east as I was heading west by J44. In Gorseinon there was a 360 with a challenge grill retrofitted parked up, thing was absolutely stunning. Proper childhood car of mine I remember Fifth fear reviewing it when it came out, I was not very old then only about 5 I think.

Later on in Penarth drove past a lovely new Vantage, brand new on a 69 plate. Finally saw someone following me out of the Tunnels down Cardiff Bay in a SVJ, that wing looks batst crazy. I’m sure he lives Swansea way, the plate was something like PJ 138. Does anyone know? I think it’s Leon

Saw a new Supra I think on Mumbles road after parkrun, had a very nice sounding exhaust in fairness.

Perhaps the one that crashed in Gorseinon years ago? I seem to remember it losing it's bumper.

Assume you mean Cayman GT4, if it's the one I think it is I see it a lot as he knows one of the neighbours.

White SVJ is not the Swansea one but I believe he lives in Cardiff area and has a red Urus. That car did have 63 numbers on it but it seems to be a regular SVJ and not an SVJ 63 (both are white).

Funnily enough I spotted a blue svr in llantrisant and then a blue one and a white one down by Penarth pier by the restaurant.
Also saw a bright green lotus last night leaving Cardiff. Not sure what it was as it turned off onto the motorway behind me but it was a very striking colour. Seems like a lot of nice cars get used year round these days which is great to see.

I think people are using cars a lot more because it’s been so mild that the councils haven’t gritted the roads
