Blue Chimaera on the A12 yesterday with the roof down - sounded great until it turned off around Chelmsford.

Ferrari 458 getting washed in the Billericay station carwash on the weekend - not sure that would be my first choice...

Few in Maldon this morning: silver fastback Mustang, maybe a '67 on the A414, red '50's Testa Rossa (presumably on a test drive from Hoyle Fox) on Maldon Road, red '80's Testarossa parked at Hoyle Fox, red/silver BMW Isetta bubble car turning onto Holloway Road from the industrial estate and a black Ford Zephyr on Langford Road

Earlier on in Chelmsford another bubble car - this one a silver Messerschmitt being loaded onto a trailer on St John's Road and a red 458 Spyder in Hatfield Peveral.

Didn't realise Bentley now have a Barry-disation department. Bentleys used to ooze sophistication eek

Couple of cars behind Dalto's Chim (I think?) from the other side of Hayes - Beckenham where you turned left half way down Scott's Lane

Last night about 9.30pm was passed on the M11 by B20 RSR the yellow 911 RSR recreation/replica (whatever). Utterly fantastic, sounded racecar angry and was properly fast. Strange as I'd just watched the video of it being picked up by the current owner as someone on here had linked it. Who cares if it is a "rep" as looked like a serious bit of machinery.

Also a 928 that sounded a lot like it was the V8 - absolutely fabulous noise as it gave it the beans when joining the M25.

Had a reg E-reg TVR S1 (I think) following me up Wrotham Hill and through West Kingsdown, was wondering if it was someone on here. I was in the black Peugeot 306.

Lovely 996 C4S parked up at Penshurst Place this afternoon, would have been rude not to put my 996 C2 next to it, so I did :P Would have made a great photo but being an idiot only occurred to me later!

I've seen quite a few nice old cars around Maidstone this weekend, and I managed to take some utterly terrible photos of a few of them!


Seen this Mk3 Cortina being used quite regularly



I regularly walk by this car park which often contains a 1956 Chevrolet BelAir, and a Mk2 Fiesta.



I was at a local pub this afternoon and a few interesting things passed by; (and I'm sorry, my phone camera really is that crap!).







I didn't get chance to snap the blue early 1970's Pontiac Firebird (egg crate grill), the silver Porsche 356 Roadster (not sure if replica or not, but it didn't sound like a Beetle), a dark green classic from probably the 1940's, maybe a Riley or something and a silver Vauxhall Firenza making some lovely V8 noises!
