I've seen Lawrence Dallaglio and that FFRR around Richmond quite a bit, but never realised it was his spin

I saw Tony Robinson in a LR Disco on the M5 Southbound doing that 'cutting in at the last minute' type of thing before some roadworks. As much as I love him as Bladrick, I did think wkER!!
Probably annoyed that you couldn't spell the name of his charcter correctly.

Erm... Badly Drawn Boy filling up an Audi A2 in Chorlton at about 6am, many years ago.

The footballers who would drive through Cheadle Hulme when I lived there were right sheep. Whatever fad car in whatever fad colour, always with a personalised registration number, blacked-out windows and a bodykit regardless. They all blend into one in terms of relevance but the ones that stood out were Wes Brown in his Bentley Continental GT (the modifications were awful but I'll concede that the engine does sound great through the aftermarket exhaust system), and Steven Ireland in his Audi R8 with the side-blades resprayed MCFC sky-blue.

I can also confirm that John Bishop drives a BMW 7-series, and is a thoroughly nice bloke.

I often see some kid driving around in an Overfinch RR Sport in Oxford. He looks no older than 18 (little st!). Saw him in football kit once, so I wonder if he plays professionally.

Since I know f-all about football I have no idea who he is. Maybe he's just loaded and still in his PE kit.

Plate is '99 OB'.
