'70's brown S2 XJ-6 outside a house on Pondfield Lane in Brentwood earlier today - looked good.

Noticed a red Renault 5 GT Turbo outside a house in Herongate shortly afterwards & then, of similar period, a v.clean white Sierra Azure at Rainham Tesco's
I used to own that XJ. Its a lovely thing and been there for a while as the owner is making room for it. Wish I'd kept it as I loved the brown and the 3.4 was very sweet!

It looked good - I was surprised to see it parked up on the verge yesterday; hadn't been that way for a while.

White Hummer H2 Pickup in Heybridge, Maldon early pm today - stood out a bit.

I got buzzed by a swarm of Abarth 595s on the M2 Dover-bound yesterday morning after seeing them grouped at Wrotham services, together with an Abarth spider - looked like they were having fun! Didn't join in, I had a car-full.

Saw this in Gillingham when collecting some DIY stuff.



On leaving I also passed a yellow Sevenesque car, but was driving so could not take a picture. However it is just in shot on the first pic.

Saw a Bentley Mulsanne making its way up Warley Street a little while ago. Looked very nice.

Something similar to an El Camino or a Ranchero coming out of SWF earlier today - red & '50's looking; not sure what it was as I don't think a Ford or Chevy.

Red Ferrari Testarossa parked outside a commercial premises somewhere near Fawkham, near Brands Hatch, yesterday evening.
I've no idea exactly where it was, I was completely lost!

Lamborghini Diablo in yellow drove past me near Westerham! Almost stuck my face through the windscreen drooling over it.

I just googled their address and looked on a map, and I think it was Foskers.
I would have slowed down for a proper look but I was running late.

Diablo Red Aston, near Hyde Hall in South Woodham Ferrers.

Be great to have a chat about the Focus wagon you forced off the road in Creep Edge Lane. Get in touch if you fancy a chat; two written off wheels and tyres on a 2k mile old car.

I'm betting you won't be fessing up because you buggered off this afternoon...but at the very least do us all a favour and get some driving lessons you moron. Wrong place to flex your pitiful driving skills.
