I see - has he had a full clean then ? What do you think of the new pipes ? It was like driving behind an F1 car the other day on the m4 !

Difficult to get a full impression driving around the local area, but sounded good.

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!

Was me sadly, back end went going up the hill and I went into the central barrier.
Quite low speed, no one else involved and no one hurt luckily.
I had rolled it back down to the position you saw it in.
Got written off due to extensive fibreglass damage.

Oh no, gutted for you 😟 can’t believe that was a write-off, only looked like a tap to the front, nothing too bad at all!

I have known a number of people who have had similar incidents around there.

Looked worse with bonnet off, new front end would have been needed I think so I wasn’t keen to get it back really.

New orange 911 near penarth seafront yesterday - looked stunning from what I saw of it.

And....need some help here - I just saw what I thought was a very early / vintage Porsche 356 driving through Michaelston towards St Fagans. A grey colour, chrome running down the bonnet centre and a Porsche-style rear with a black and white square plate.

Anyone know this one?

I am not into classics and was driving in the opposite direction and it could easily have been something else such as an early Saab or similar but this was very impressive, also to be enjoying it on the salted roads of Cardiff!

The 356 was on cowbridge high street this pm. I couldn’t work out if it was genuine or a replica. The outside looked real enough but the brief glimpse of the interior had me asking questions. Regardless, it looked as cool as anything.

Two grey Audi RS6 Avants in Porthcawl. Heard the second coming before seeing it, it's the one that replaced the Nardo Grey RS4 Avant. Also the blue/silver R8 parking in a very tight space.

It sounded very nice indeed.

Assuming it's the same Audi Quattro, saw it today near M4 at Pencoed about 2;45.
