There are a lot of Pathfinder and ex RAF places near me plus Shuttleworth and Gransden. Sitting in the garden/river bank is a free air show most fine weekends.

Yes. Lanc flew did London/Hendon fly past. Apparently landed at Cranfield before heading home to be met by four Typhoons (there was one over Cambridgeshire at one point) and a fly past of 28 former bomber command bases around Lincolnshire until just after 8pm.

A Rolls Royce Cullinan on the A1 near Hatfield yesterday morning. I had to google it.

Colour was what I would describe as “battleship grey”

Personal opinion: ugly cars! I don’t like the look of them at all.

7 in Gulf colours Saturday in Digswell. Looked very cool.

Belongs to a friend of mine, it is a lovely example.

Funnily enough I spotted you only a few moments later going through the crossroads but you wouldn't have seen me.

Yellow Renault Sport Spider just going over the top of the St. Evenage rollercoaster at 13:25 today. Never seen one in the road, superb to see.

Slightly cheating because it was an Italian meet up in Chesham but it was lovely to see so many beautiful cars! Completely forgot it was happening, only popped out for some BBQ bits

That's quality - does he use it a lot?

[T5GRF]

It seems to come and go from his driveway so I’m not sure to be honest - the yellow is my favourite colour, lovely to see it out and about!
