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 bats
t crazy. I’m sure he lives Swansea way, the plate was something like PJ 138. Does anyone know? I think it’s Leon
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.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 bats

I think it’s LeonWhite 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).

Saw a new Supra I think on Mumbles road after parkrun, had a very nice sounding exhaust in fairness.
Could may well be. I don’t remember one crashing in Gorseinon but equally I only pass through there to visit some family in Loughor.TDowney2394 said:

Perhaps the one that crashed in Gorseinon years ago? I seem to remember it losing it's bumper.SAB888 said:

Ah ok that’s good to know. It was an SVJ 63. At first I thought it was a rally sticker of some kind but then I realised what it was. Not my cup of tea personally but kudos to him, it’s an insane piece of kit!

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.
Friend of mine has bright Lime Green Lotus Elise S1(has a hard top on at moment) with TUS In plate who lives in Barry. Also saw a bright green lotus last night leaving Cardiff.

Fairly certain I saw the black Mercedes Benz AMG GTR parked where the Aston Martin DBS Superleggera usually sits. It was partially hidden by another car, but the Aston Martin Vantage GT8 was parked in front of it.
Nothing wrong with your eye sight. Passed it by St Mary Hill this afternoon. Near Llandow this afternoon, a silver E36, which appeared to be stripped and caged. Parked up nearby was a Rolls Royce Carmague, damn that's an ugly car.

Lovely car with the contrasting black roof - she used to have a db11 I think
I know, I do like that combo. Sweet, guessing she likes that headlight style design.'More photos of pigeons please gorgeous129' Sadly the weather might have kept them in shelter as there's been none yet
I'll upload pics later on but a bit of sun brings the toys out in Swansea it seems, weird as the gritters were out last night. Red 458 Italia at the lights by Tesco Swansea Marina, grey 488 GTB by the Bay View in St Helens and the yellow LP560 Spyder by Parc Tawe. Also saw the DMC DeLorean purring past LC2 but no pics, no pigeons either sadly :/

I wonder if this is a positive reflection on the realities of leasing. Traditionally buying a 100 thousand pound Ferrari would come with the reality that a few winters on salty roads and any excess mileage would come at a heavy cost come sale or service time. Yet if the deal has already been struck, and the car is going back on a certain date regardless of how many wet miles over dry miles covered. That must to a degree lessen the burden that depreciation on "well used" exotica suffer.That's actually a really good point to be fair, never looked at it from that angle.
Bit belated but the photos, plus an R8 Type 4S with a roofbox
LP560 Spyder photo has a hint of BMW M2 on the other side of the road
Sadly the R8 photo is too big, most likely due to being a night shot, but not often you see a car of that calibre with a roofbox installed so quite a unique spot.
