Calypso red M62 junction 6 east this morning 7.30.
Seen it a few times over the last year or so (usualy on the M57 south), but no buggers admiting to owning this red beast. Chap and a woman always in it.

Saturday Afternoon..A Red SE... J reg I think... Benson round about... Looked confused as why a Volvo T5 would flash him.. :shock:

Then again, driving the Élan yesterday in Didcot… flashed an Elise….Received a dumb founded look and shear horror across his face... I could of S**T on his bonnet and got less of a look of disgust.

Also a Norfolk Custard... J****JAR..Which I've seen before... She was parked up… Top down… outside a house between Wallingford and Reading... Car park at the front looked like something like the Boswells would be proud off. :D

Any one here? LEC Zap on standby.. :wink:

Mrs Trackside here:

Don't know if it's anyone on here, but I saw a beautiful red S2 in the carpark of The Courtyard just outside Flore this morning at about 11.00 ish. Obviously a very loved car judging by it's condition and nice shiny paintwork!

I was with my friend, we were in the Elise's trying to work out which roads to take for a nice drive.

Silver M100 with the top up heading Bristol bound on the M4 this evening at about 6:30pm.

Didn't get a better look than that I'm afraid and was in the Honda so wouldn't have stood out.

Blue Elan 6.15pm today between Sandhurst and Wokingham - possibly muleys? Not spotted by me, I hasten to add, but by my 8 year old. He told me when I got in from work that he'd seen the blue sports car coming and spotted the Elan badge on it when it got close. Train 'em young!
Regards

at the risk of hijacking the thread:-

I fell off my mountain bike at the bottom of a hill in the middle of a wood and broke my wrist. After an off-road journey in the ambulance and 3 days in hospital, I now have a plate in my arm :cry: no driving for at least 6 weeks :cry: :cry: so no H&C meet next week :cry: :cry: :cry:

Today Calypso Red 12:15, A34... Passing the Abingdon turn off...

Doing 70 MPH backwards... It tends to get a bit of attention... especially on the other carriage way...

Panic wave given.. and a smile back...
