That's them. I thought it was a Challenger or Charger and went for the wrong one! The Charger did sound absolutely fantastic.

Was it the black charger that was at the cowbridge car show a year or so ago ? It was my favourite car o the show if it was.

Black Audi R8 Spyder going through the awful traffic problems at Ewenny Roundabout due to resurfacing works on the A48. I could show them plenty of roads that are in much more need of resurfacing than that stretch.

Previous generation Aston V8 Vatage on the slip road at Llandarcy early afternoon. Sadly the old boy who was following him had decided to restyle the rear and of the Aston with his hatchback, neither looked great.

Chinook helicopter in a field adjacent to Margam International Airport (Old Park Farm) late this afternoon. Er indoors had told me that two Chinooks had flown past, very low and one not sounding great, she thought thay had both landed, with only one taking off later. So it wasn't a total surprise to drive past the farm on the A48 and see said helicopter.

A Chinook flew right over Brackla from Cardiff and landed in Dublin about an hour ago. It was a US Army one. Two of them flew over Bridgend about a week ago as well.

A neighbour of mine saw four of them so maybe that's one of the four.

Light yellow E-Type convertible this morning in Merthyr Mawr. I'm not the biggest E-Type fan but it suited this weather and that location perfectly.

It's just taken off and headed towards the Vale, maybe some more repairs needed at St Athan?

Two of them flew over Brackla again about 2 hours ago, may be on their way to Dublin again.

It was parked in the far corner, nose in, but it did look striking from the side and rear.

Cheers, will keep a look out for it, hopefully it's local.
