Hi belle, iv just bought your tvr as salvage. I saw the accident and live locally so you'll see it around. I can't wait to get it repaired next week. I'll drop you an email if ok for some details on it.

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.

Saw a review of the VW on TV yesterday, quite like the look of it. Maybe a magazine/TV show doing a comparison between the two of them.

Saw a pink McLaren pulled up on the hard shoulder of the M4, Westbound just before Jnt 32 on Sunday about 4pm.

Looked like it was awaiting assistance as the passengers were stood in the p**sing down rain.

Oops, that's embarrassing. I bet they won't be putting that picture up on their instagram accounts @lisamariebrown123 & @imleonbrown

The Urus may well be the chap two owns Specialist Cars. Friend of mine picked up a 140i from there yesterday

Saw it again today driving out of Penarth, I imagine it's the same one there can't be many Uruses (Urusi?) in Cardiff let alone orange ones; There is a red one that lives in Cardiff Bay.
Also a red Mustang coming out of Dinas Powys

I saw my first Honda e in Barry last week, Blue one Broad Street. I really do love they way looks, it's even better than in photos but the range is just too low. I don't think EV's, or certainly city ones, need to be able to do hundreds of miles but the Honda is just too limited at 125miles under ideal conditions; If it could deliver that in the worst conditions and improved as conditions got better it'd be ideal as a second car or main car of city dwellers everywhere.

I believe the red one is now wrapped orange.

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.
Whilst out walking the dogs in St Fagans this morning I am sure I saw it being worked on in a double garage...white GT3 and red classic 911 out front with the 356 and something else Porsche-like in the other garage (didn’t want to stare too long!). Will make an effort to have a chat with the owner when I get a chance...
