You were flashed by some twat in a silver Yaris heading into Brentwood, would have been in another calypso but for split hoses! :cry:


Same place but heading in to Brentwood 1.30pm today, possibly the same Calypso, I was ten cars behind you but turned up Mascalls Lane, this time in my Calypso.

I know it wasn't SteveA, unless he posts whilst driving!

Spotted on Jersey at the Easter Monday hill climb. This was a local car (also saw silver and white SEs on the road).

The commentators reffered to this as a 'hairdressers car' !

Very clean looking BRG on an F plate cruised through Long Hanborough (A4095 near Woodstock Oxon) top down on Friday 24th 'bout lunch time. Not seen it about before so possibly not a local. I waved but I was in my very anonymous undercover ford fukarse so not noticed. (I also washed my windscreen at you :-D It was meant to be a head light flash but I got the wrong stick :roll: )
Currently Elan-less and on the lookout for a good one.

That's exactly what I thought as they have recently released a load more un-issued F's into the cherished number market.

Anyone know J495 OPA...Green SE?

A real rare sight in Northern Ireland, as Ive only ever seen one here before in 1991, I followed it part of the way to work the other day.

Was driving my Series III Landy, so couldn't quite keep up :burnout:
