I seem to be spotting some random bits at the moment!
This one is a first for me.

WTF is that? Some sort of death trap Smart car?

[Don1]

Smart Switchblade IIRC.

Crossblade I believe.

Can't say I'd like to try it.

That's it!

I would love to try it. Near the Med in summer. As a run around for essentials shopping / beach trips. Leaving the Mk1 Rangie for airport runs and the like.

OK, can see your idea there. Maybe a 599 SA Aperta for the evening run to the restaurant too?
That would suit me.

That sounds like a capital idea.

The black one they sold recently was better, imo.

Dark red Ferrari F12 on the A46 heading south out of Stratford 30 minutes ago. Lovely car in a great colour.

No photos as I was driving.

This weekend I have seen three McLarens in Gloucester which is hardly the super car capital of the world.

A 720S & a pair of 765LT’s (I think). They all looked amazing.

I also drove past a house which had a pair of Rover P6 estate cars on the drive!!!!

488 GTB in red,
458 Italia in red;
991 GT3 in white;
C7 Corvette in white being followed by a classic silver/blue Stingray on a trailer

Good point, meant M6

Maybe the scenic route

Though the M60 is hardly what I'd call scenic.

anyway, what awful places to start and end a journey!

I nearly choked when I read that!

Still hopefully the M40 made up for it.

Definitely an Aventador Boyse?

I guess I could have been a huracan. I've not seen one in the flesh and from the front they look pretty similar

[smithyithy]

Yeah not exactly the prettiest places are they lol, but the journey resulted in a provisional purchase that (fingers crossed) I'm very excited about

Idly browsing scabby 944's and this pops up - not the 944 but what's in the background. A UK registered Talbot Matra Bagheera! When was the last time you saw one of these? They had a diabolical reputation for rusting through the chassis so the fact that this one isn't a pile of dust is a surprise

I suspect that its outward appearance flatters to deceive.

Last Taxed in 1991 and a V5 was last issued in 1979 so i imagine it's been there some time!

Also liked the vendors definition of that Pork being perfect all round whilst the HPI check notes it as Cat C/D lol
