Black one going from Brockworth to Shurdington (Gloucester to Cheltenham) on the A46 on Thursday night, anyone local? I've not seen a black one since I saw one south of Bracknell about six months ago.

Sorry no, bit of a poor showing I know, not sure what I was thinking, but only took 10 pics throughout the whole time I was there so was obviously distracted. Perhaps James will post some up soon? It does look very nice, I particularly like the seats. But its not a flat NMY paint job cos it got a flake in it, and the green is a metallic rather than BRG. My preference would be straight NMY/BRG, but its certainly eye catching and very nicely done.

Junction 22 M62 today 2pmish. Calypso N/A with a Nicowalker lookalike at the wheel. Had a quick chat with the owner who has recently joined us, tho owned his 2 Elans for a number of years. One of which reputably does less miles than The Beast

4+ hours stuck in a damp bucket seat with a mad Irishman at the wheel - Deep joy!!!!

Good to hear it's still on the road and still wearing it's pistachio coat. The chap who bought it from me was going to join here, not sure if he ever did?

I've just watched part 3 of the Freddy Flintoff boxing documentary that's recently been on Sky and noticed that they've captured my Elan in the loading bay of the MEN arena on the evening of the fight. It's 40 minutes in if anybody is interested in seeing the back of my car in an unlit car park!

Love it! Great spotted!

Kudos to you
