Possibly Andy Palmer. When he arrived to collect his new Valkyrie, the entry barrier would not lift up, so he was just handed the keys by security, outside the Gaydon perimeter fence and told, "The M40 is that way".

A rare model, might be the only one with the discount option.

Presume when you saw the Valkyrie, the driver was in licence preservation mode, ear plugs in and running in 1st gear.

Given it was near Gaydon, it was probably just one of the development cars out for a drive.

deffo more than 2 in the UK already... a quick search on youtube confirms that.

Not that I personally know anyone with one, but Im sure there are members here who do, so it may help if you say what colours it was in

Spotted one as I crossed the A43 about 6 months ago heading towards Silverstone - I live in Brackley so we do see lot's of exotics.
I will say it took up both lanes on the roundabout and took me 10 seconds to work out what the hell it was.
