Is that at the old stratstones place by Waitrose? I had heard a rumour they were going to take that but hadn't realised it was near to actually happening yet.

I have to say in the last few month the number of electric cars I'm seeing, Tesla or otherwise, seems to have rocketed; the electric revolution is finally properly underway imo.

I wondered if it would be there. That’s the old Jag garage, me and my parents have collected a few cars from there over the years

Lovely car and a fittingly expensive plate to go with it.
Can’t wait for the weather to get better and get back down there on weekends to see what’s prowling about. Hopefully get the big bite meet-up going again too

Yes that ‘s me ! I’ve only had the Cali T a couple of months and it is a bit on the quiet side for my liking . . ( neighbours prefer it to the old one though . . )

Aha awesome! I think I've seen you in it twice now but didn't get good pics the first time, always great to see a Ferrari being enjoyed! A louder exhaust system would be cool too! Happy driving!

Believe it or not, it has a factory sports pipe on it . . Yup I really miss the big bite - I think we all need to introduce ourselves to each other up there. I think I just saw my first Ferrari Roma in a burgundy ish colour ( was a long way away) in mumbles

I'd love to meet anyone who's a like minded petrolhead up there, bring it on!

Is there any appetite for an informal Mumbles meet do you think?

Guessing it was the same Clio V6 I saw in Coity mid afternoon. Impreza RB5 with the higher boot spoiler on the McArthur Glen roundabout. Grey 992 Turbo S on the M4 near Port Talbot.

Silver Ferrari SF90 Stradale in Cardiff today. A real surprise to see such a rare car but it’s a strange looking thing.

Like a Porsche classic meet down crwys rd Cardiff last night.
I parked up in the 944 and within ten minutes spotted a lovely 996 turbo with what looked like RUF wheels. A white first gen cayenne blowing smoke, and then an old 928 coming down the hill looking great.
