you mean to say you're not sure about that blingy 458 or my claim? because now i look at it you can clearly see it's there in the pic... at mr clutch wobble

nice find. i remember they had a yellow daytona spider on miami vice once, a real one and they were careful not to put it in the same shot as the mcburnie rep. i remember there was a daytona at chelsea cars last august and as far as i know i think it's still round the back somewhere as i'm sure i saw it as i was driving past the other day :/

i took a few pics. not in such great shape and minus chrome bumpers...







had an owner's club sticker/disc in the windscreen from '87 otherwise i might have assumed it was a rather good rep.

they have a testarossa in at the minute.

I'd go with your gut on this one, I think.

Haha, well spotted indeed. I did hear tell of a particular good jag based rep being given an honorary membership to the FOC so perhaps in it's heyday this one did too. I just did a quick google search for a set of rep chrome bumpers but didn't find much. Shouldn't be too hard to get hold of given the number of Daytona reps around i suppose.

2 lime green Gallardo's, 1 orange Gallardo Spyder and a couple of white Gallardo's doing some sort of circuit around Wooburn Green/M40. One is on UK plates and the others look to be foreign.

So far they've driven past my office about half a dozen times and we've had a few nice downshifts under the M40 bridge thrown in for good measure.
This?

That was me!

Spotted an Orange Aventador L700JMF earlier through Prestbury, amazing amazing road presence.

F430 Scuderia 16M Spider on the A40 near Hanger Lane about 12ish today. I was in a new XKR cab but didn't have the chance to "play" due to traffic unfortunately

It was Rosso.

You on the look out for one or thinking you might know who it was? Didn't catch any of the plate as it was nothing special so cant narrow it down any further for you unfortunately.

Could have been in for service / prep work with HR Owen though as their service centre is just down the road in the Park Royal industrial estate.

Mine (bianco fuji) was in at HR Owen so I thought perhaps it was mine on road test
