PLENTY.... starting with Aston Distressway tonight
Posted: Tue Nov 02, 2004 7:46 pm
OK, the tidy lass in the car closely matching mine - navy blue, squareback, H-reg (338 something?), dinged passenger door... but....
G T ! - replete with red stripey trims and the black centred trims and running very sweetly by the sound coming in thru the open window.
And smarter than the average CL driver too, as you were in the right lane and gained a good quarter mile on me while i was fiddling with the camera phone before i realised what the craic was. OK, who is it? Show yourself
About 6pm, going down the ramp onto Gravelly Hill Road.
It's been a busy week for spotting stuff....
Also in that same trip... a drippingly sweet old black Daimler limousine, must be 1950s. Gorge.
At the weekend... in reverse order.
Parked next to the Saracen's head pub in Weston-on-Trent, Stafford - another clone of the nail, again H-reg etc, but Fox this time, the trimless silver/black wheels and everything. Looking very very well kept but just as dirty. Anyones?
M27 near the junction with the M3, nice looking red coupe, still stock. Clambering up that enormous hill and slightly outpacing me. Genesis I think but didnt see a badge. J reg. Nothing really that special but just interested in case it's any member.
Star mention: ASDA in Bournemouth, saturday evening, driving in as we were leaving and actually cut us up at the island: Very nice looking Sky Blue Mk1 Polo. W-reg.... suffix of course
Seemed in good nick, and had at least 3 people aboard. Yours?
And down the Coventry (A46) - M40 - A34 - M3 - M27 corridor somewhere between the hours of 11am and 1.30pm saturday, a pair of decent Mk3 saloons, one white (further north?), one red (further south?). One was round a big under-motorway island, the other in town i think. Need to go find the camera phone and have another look for the background details
Still waiting for someone in a G to go wailing past me like I'm standing still... downhill at 105...
It's getting a bit dull when it's only XJS's, Porkas, Audis and Beemers doing it.
