Sports car, supercars, something old and interesting or just a low number on a car it shouldn't be on...what have you seen?

I saw a 458 Italia on Saturday but haven't spo5ed much else of interest this week.

Was on Pembroke having lunch. Nearly headed down there but wanted to get back to get out on the water later on.

Just spent the week on Jersey and had a cracking time with the family. It was my first visit and I'll be back very soon I'm sure. Anyway, the car spots. What an interesting array of vehicles you guys have:

Plenty of M3s, RS4s, Caymans etc but most pleasing was the red 355 this morning, red 458, 430 and 360 the other day and also a white 458 Speciale. Even more noteworthy were the 3 or 4 TR6s I saw around the island and some immaculate old air cooled Porsches. The white targa whale tail this morning was epic. And then to add sheer rarity to the mix was an uber rare Aston DB5/6 Shootingbrake in green, a mint Escort RS Cosworth also in green and then this beautiful old Porsche to finish my week off perfectly. Thank you Jersey

Yeah, drove over in the Q7 (in reality too big for Jersey roads). Cracking island though. If you need a restaurant recommendation the Green Island is superb.

On the boat now...

Yeah green island is great, the owner used to work in a bank, jacked it all in and opened the restaurant.

Next time you're over try Oysterbox in st Brelades bay too.

Wish I could have brought the c63 this trip, but had to bring a diesel x1 because of the dog...

Isn't 1 on the Bailiff's car? Or is it the Lt Governor's? Memory's going I suspect.

Guards red 964 at the Peninsula this morning. Very happy that my two year old knew it was a Porsche smile
