Saw a Ferrari 458 this morning at the BP near SWF. Also forgot I saw a Scimitar on the A127 yesterday morning.

Keep saying a matte black Urus around Beckenham/Eden Park. It's certainly an.............acquired taste. But each to their own!

Bright green 70 plate Aventador SVJ joining the A127 at the roundabout down from Battlesbridge. A very garish and vulgar way to spend £300k.

there was a bright blue 50's Chevy(?) pick-up in Billericay Farifield workshop this afternoon - brave man (that's not a derogatory dig a Fairfield, more a dig a main-dealer workshops in general. Not sure want to trust them with something that nice)
It was in the showroom for sale - for silly money though. Looked super but the wheels were quite nasty. Looks like they put some interesting stock in the showroom, using the site to flip their trade ins and ex-contract hence why it isn't branded.

I'm round the corner - they've also got a 599 GTB in there, and an absolutely stunning old Corvette C1 that I'm sure the price tag said 150k...

Saw a (black?) focus on the A12 Shenfield turn off this evening. Nothing special about that you say - and you'd be right, but he'd managed to smack the slip-road armco and ended up nearly 180° looking rather stoved in and sorry for itself. Hope no-one was hurt.

C1 you say? May have to mosey past there later this week (a 5 min walk so it's always nice to see interesting stuff)
