Ha - I thought you were on here, I used to spot your RS6's regularly too. Fantastic upgrade, it sounds so good even just pootling along!

Give me a flash when you're next about. It certainly sounds better, though drinks like its owner!!!!!

Delorean would likely be Tristan on here, fair play he uses it very frequently

Luminous green Lamborghini Urus in Cardiff city centre earlier. Never has a more tragic looking car driven through this fair city.

Two in Merthyr this morning, white Aventador on Swansea Rd and then about 20 minutes later a blue Huracan on Penydarren High St.
i've seen that White Aventador a few times on Swansea Road - I assume it lives in Beacons Heights although i could be wrong. Looks incredible next to ordinary traffic.

Yeah I’ve seen it once before on Swansea Rd and agree think it does live at Beacon Heights.

Burgundy Chimaera attached to a lamppost on the A472 by the Wyllie roundabout, front end damaged but didn’t look too bad, it gets a bit slippery around there!

Aston DB11 Volante coming off the M4 just over the bridge, also saw 3x Boeing wings being transported into Wales as I headed into Bristol! Also saw a nice light blue Rapide join at J32 westbound which made a lovely noise as it went past, then an orange Huracan heading Northbound on the A4232 towards J33. A good day of spotting given I only went to Bristol to get a laptop

Not an exotic spot what so ever, but tonight i drove past an 800t Liebherr Mobile Crane ran by Ainscough, parked up in a layby on the A465 in Resolfen. 9 axles, it pretty much took the whole length of the layby.

I imagine its here for some wind turbine / transformer lifting? We use up to 350t in work generally which are impressive in themselves, but that 800t crane is an absolute unit and quite a sight to behold!

That is cool, I wonder what the hire rate is eek

I travel A465 HoV road every day, there was usually some impressive machinery working there especially on the final stretch Gilwern to Brynmawr when they put the new bridge in.

Just saw this monster, or another similar one on the M4 at Bridgend heading East. I think the wheel configuration was 3-3-2-1.

Yesterday in Bridgend, what looked like a red Austin Healey partly covered on the back of a trailer.
