Black LHD RS200 rumbling through Heybridge nr Maldon earlier today - looked very cool; particularly as I've never seen one (roadcar) in black. There's a specialist on an industrial estate nearby that prepares them so assume it was out on a test run.

Also saw a maroon Diablo on the A12 late morning yesterday just past the Shenfield junction heading towards Chelmsford - looked very cool in the rain. It was a day for Lambo's as I saw a yellow Gallardo Spyder with black wheels at the Boreham Interchange later in the day.

Nice looking Mark 1 Focus RS on the one way system by the Archbishop's Palace in Maidstone yesterday (Wednesday). I was the one in the black T5 Sportline van nodding appreciatively going the opposite way.

BTW V-Power is in stock south-bound on Bluebell Hill at £1.49 if anyone has been waiting for it. Using my £5.50 voucher eased the pain only slightly.

Excellent, Hi Neil. I am normally about in either the van (quite distinctive with satin black 20" five spokes and a T5 plate), a black Z4M Coupe or the blue Octavia estate snotter.

I was in the snotter when alongside a silver Monaro VXR on Sittingbourne Road this afternoon. Great noise.

A white McLaren MP4-12C on the A21 near Sevenoaks - it looked and sounded great. It was close to the lay-by where a mobile speed camera van sometimes operates and it may have been zapped.

Red (obviously), Ferrari 355 at the Westwood Cross roundabout in Thanet, didn't catch the plate due to traffic but got a good enough glimpse to know it wasn't an MR2 in a dress. my 164 did sound better coming off the roundabout though wink
