On M4 (E) this afternoon, a Honda S2000. Think it had a grey wrap on it. Sexy red very large brake calipers.

Was it silver by any chance? Saw a silver one passing Tesco Swansea Marina earlier.


Also saw the Type 4S R8 camper van again passing Sainsburys earlier tonight, pic not best quality but you should be able to recognise it as an R8

This went passed me by brecon. Looked menacing. Nice day for a drive as well.

Also saw a white 720s and a gtr recaro.

I suppose it’s fine to drive exotica like this if there is salt in the roads if you hose them down and underneath after a drive ?

The white 300SL appeared by Juniper Place today


Also saw the white Vanquish Volante and got photos which I'll upload soon of the aqua-type blue 911 GT3RS (991) passing Sainsburys.

It's definitely fine, as in it won't actually damage anything. But it will create surface corrosion on Ali and steel. You can't really get round that without very vigorous care.

What do you mean second one in the country? In that colour or something?

I'd guess that it could be the second SVJ Roadster in the country as there are more of the coupe in the UK.

Here's the GT3 RS from yesterday



Then today, either the same one with the number plate changed or a different one in the same colour, headed towards Blackpill and Mumbles later on.

I passed that earlier in my Abarth on the way to mumbles, must have been around 14:45?

Looked great, huge wing!

Saw this 720s as I was leaving mumbles.

Thats a stunning colour for a 720S. By any chance is your Abarth red? If so I think I got a few pics of it driving past the Bay View by St Helens, looks beautiful!

Yup, Red with Black bonnet.

Only one other red 124 in Swansea but doesn’t have a black bonnet (there’s another but it’s white)

She needs a good wash if i’m honest, bloody grit!


If you have any feel free to post, honour to be spotted by G129 biggrin

I hear the McLaren going up the hill past my house most days - great he uses it all year round

I think I've seen you about as well, then. My daughter, who is now learning to drive so has finally started showing an interest in cars, pointed you (or your twin) out as a good example of "the car she wants" biggrin
