I was planning on going to Maldon but ended up ripping parts from my car instead. I thought that it would be rammed there as it was the first one for a long time but the background of that photo looks a bit of a let down.

Walking down Epping High St yesterday morning and saw a '60s Corvette StingRay parked up. 427 engine and in great condition. Would have loved to have had time to hear it start up and pull away!

Plenty of stuff out over the weekend, but the ones that really caught my eye were the three red classic minis that I saw on the M25 yesterday morning, and then on my way back in the afternoon, I saw them going the other way.

Dark grey Rover P6 in Chelmsford city centre today - pretty sure it's the same one I saw a week or so ago.

Forgot one I saw on Sunday. An XK150 who nearly drove into the front of me whilst he was dangerously overtaking a cyclist near Mayland.

Saw a Maserati 4.24 yesterday evening near SWF.

Saw a modified classic 911 Targa today, and another 911 on a trailer and a TR4/5 all near the A127

Epping High St really is the place!

Passed what I thought was a Stag being backed out of that garage about 5pm, maybe it was a Spitfire.
Also saw a bi-plane overhead earlier in the day. smile

Blue E30 3-Series Cab in Chelmsford city centre this morning.

Edited to add: couple of spots of regular red Lambo Huracan in the city centre this pm, looks great in red; and a very lowered VW Type 1 pick-up.

Also saw a very cool, white Land Rover S3 Pick-up in Chelmsford yesterday evening.

I saw a very similar Jaguar to that one above near Cranbrook this afternoon, as well as a silver E28 BMW M5 and a very old white MG, I think a TF.
