Plenty of stuff out over the weekend. a TVR Tamora on the A127 this morning. A pre war Austin (I think) near North Fambridge yesterday afternoon and so much more that I can't remember. This is the only thing I photographed though

Mis-spaced plate... but I could give a pass to F4O RK on an F40 biggrin

A120/M11 junction over the weekend, annoying slow traffic in the way!

Bit thin on the ground this week, despite the weather; saw a blue Karmann Ghia on a low loader earlier today & a white Gallardo Spyder yesterday, both in Chelmsford city centre.

Spoke too soon: Tendring, late morning & a '20's Bentley, blue Alpine A110 passing Marks Tey on the A12 and a green Triumph Acclaim (not many of those left) in Witham.

Bentley is a good spot!

Saw a Karmann Ghia (with flame paintwork I think) on the A127 yesterday evening, a very late R129 SL in a very nice blue near the A130 that morning, a lovely gold R107 SL near N. Fambridge this morning and a blue Huracan Spider on the A127

It was pretty cool - usual dark green, Union stickers and being peddled by an old chap, different to the one that's often spotted in Chelmsford.

Handful more later in the day & all in Chelmsford: white MB SL R107, grey modded 80's 911 Carrera and another Lambo, regular purple Huracan Spyder.

Should that be 'pedalled'? lol

A new Vantage turning onto the B186 yesterday, sounded great. Reg was something like 7OMG

Came past a classic Ford 'ute' on the A127 yesterday evening, with massive rear tyres, tiny front tyres and a very jazzy paint scheme. Also saw a T bucket hot rod coming the other way, and later on a model A/B hot rod on the A131 (I think). All heading to the Dick Turpin, I'd imagine.

Nice XKR on the A127 this morning, and a DB9.

Love those, especially the Kamm tail treatment - my favorite RR.

It looked absolutely immaculate, and the aircon must still work as all of the windows were up in 30 degree heat cool
