were you spotting or do you live there? I moved there in November and i see (and hear) all sorts of really interesting cars out my window constantly
Was working today, I'm a transporter driver so was in the centre to collect a Sprinter van, which ended up being in Morecambe.......

Do you like it there?

I don't go actively spotting, but if I always take pics of interesting bits I see when I'm about.
it's not bad. We are only here temporarily as we sold our house a few towns over. The range rover contingent here is like an army... seems like 50% of the cars on the road are RRs it's mad.

Hang on they sent you to collect a van which was actually somewhere totally different?!

Oh god yea, happens all the time.

Still, it was a nice day so I'm happy to drive round Knutsford for a bit. Caused havoc trying to park it on Tatton Street though

You're correct, I misread my Google search.
Still, 1 of 250, rare.

nerd Still far more numerous than something like the Sagaris biggrin

What a cracking thing though. Glad it's being used.

Funny you say that, I also spotted a lovely TVR today. Trying not to take over the topic though, will save the pic for another day.

Arsed up getting a shot but pulled out of the Diddly Squat Farm Shop this morning behind a Prodrive BRX. Monster of a motor and took up most of the country lane. Looks a hell of a lot of fun

Jeremy Clarkson posted a picture of himself stood next to one today, could have been him driving it!

He does (and they do the best sausage rolls....in the world).

Yes, caught that this morning - good spot. Had a new white Defender in front of it and they turned off the road onto a track, presumably to get the necessary amount of mud for the shots.

Remarkably well cared for, or a superb restoration. Either way, a rare spot.

Not quite a supercar, but a high end luxury car. Rolls-Royce Phantom 8 standard wheelbase limousine.

It was spotted on the M42 this morning.

Captured on my Nextbase dashcam.
