Saw the headlights coming at me in the rear view mirror. Having never seen one from that angle, I thought it was something well exotic...and it was.

Another black and dirty (mine was dirtier) CV8.

Ran through together from M4 Chieveley to M4/M25. Sorry, meant to wave or something but didn't really get the chance - was concentrating too hard on trying to keep up!

Yeah, I thought he was just happy to see two Ro's at once until I realised that he must have left the oven on at home...talk about lepton abuse...like a rat up a drain pipe

Ah, I see.
Seeing not just another Ro, but a black one just like mine made it even more amazing.
Knowing that black is the fastest colour, I just realised why mine was slower than the other one...it was dirtier and less black - it's got so much white (road salt) on it now it almost looks like it's been cacked on from a great hight by a bunch of sea gulls with dodgy guts

Yours looked pretty cool as you peeled off to go up the M25 though, in a well-used dirty grungy way. Mine was completely caked in salt when I got back last night.
