Only picked it up last week, but I've been racking the miles up on it as quickly as possible since then!

Another Derby PHer here.

My silly car is a green Bentley Turbo R, daily driver is a black Skoda Fabia vRS.

JSG's car is very nice, great colour on it too.

We were at the Starkholmes meet near Matlock last night, you other Derby folks should come along too, all welcome. Every other Tuesday.

[micky g]

I'm in Belper, silver Cerb is my daily driver.

Have seen Warrens Bentley around quite a bit. Incidently Warren, do you know Nick who had a Bentley with no. plate BU5BY until recently? (Swapped to an outrageous Hummer)!!

I met him once or twice and had a chat, usually at East Mill car wash, it was the blue Continental R, lovely thing. I will be on the look out for him in the Hummer.

[craggers]

Not seen you driven it tho. Parked up somewhere (think it was at pub's car park once on my way to Ashbourne)

[micky g]

No need to look from what I've been told

Yup, it's my XJS with a more modern shell.

Never parked it there, though - only had it this last week... have had a "slightly tweaked" XK for the last year or so before that.

Oh God! i'm a marked man!

The more I do it, the less opportunity everyone else has to point out the Mondeo switchgear and Mazda door handles.

Is it?

[The Dude]

I'm in Derby too.

Currently whizzing around in a black CSL though I do change my cars more than I change my socks. I think this one is a keeper though. For now.
