Snetterton is the other way!!
I was heading East, roof down.
Could have been me on the way to GST in Newmarket but I would have said it was an hour later than that.
First time the car has been driven on a dry day with the hood up and someone spots me. Doh!
Jim
Only if you were running an errand first because I was heading for GST myself & saw this one heading in the opposite direction.
Who said it was dry? I am a bit stubborn (ok, maybe stupid) about not putting my roof up when it starts to drizzle.

3 elans in at Paul Mattys this afternoon - Monaco white SE, Azure Blue S2 (both for sale if you're a lottery winner!) - and a Pac Blue SE (customers car - complete with LEC window stickers H9---)
(and a reliable informant tells me that if i'd been a couple of hours earlier I may have seen a BRG with yellow stripe on it's first road trip in a while

)

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it
...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

2 Elans heading East on the A120 this afternoon.
The 1st was a Calypso Red near Coggeshall at about 1530.
The 2nd was about 5-10 minutes later: a Black Elan which exited the Freeport roundabout in Braintree as I was entering from the other direction.
I was heading West & waved at both from my Blue Elan.
