Pic below of a Triumph Herald cab just over the border in Sudbury, yesterday pm, also saw a purple Fiat 126 shortly afterwards.

First thing today in Chelmsford & a green Huracan spyder and a red Ferrari 488 at the A414 roundabout. Early evening passing Ingatestone on the A12 & another Huracan spyder (white).

Random car show content from Matching Green today..

https://www.evoke-classics.com/event/matching-gree...



























I've got loads more photos, but uploading them to here is harder than it needs to be. was one of the most eclectic shows that I've seen and can definitely recommend it if you're looking for something random to do next year

These must have been the same ones that were at the North Weald Breakfast meet this morning.
May well have been. It was about 07:10 - I was on my way to Silverstone

Believe that it's the "proper" one that'll be Euro LHD available - the one I saw is the Sport, smaller & based on a yank SUV.

The Sport seemed a good size for UK & front end looked good.

I saw the bronco sport a while ago, noticed the headlights in my mirror and was all excited to see the new bronco and then some small ugly melted plastic looking thing drove past me, was about the size of a jeep Cherokee, disappointed.

Blimey, can't remember last time I saw one of those - 1.3 auto as well (via DVLA). My mum had a 12 estate of similar vintage.

Nothing wrong with a Ute, but it should have no sides on the flatbed, be a sandy yellow/grey colour and a dog hanging out of the window.
