It wasn't me, but I had my hood down on Saturday. Not a cloud in the sky, jacket, hat and scarf, wind deflector and heater on full whack! I wasn't at all cold. :D

Another interesting and wide variation of cars at Brooklands, a great way to usher in the motoring year and very good to see some other M100's there this year. The VSCC driving test day in Feb is also very good. I managed to park 'spot' in a line of Jaguars and heavily piss off a few people. Tee-hee! :twisted:

BRG travelling south on the A22 on Friday morning (6th Feb), spotted around Ashdown forest at 8:30 ish. I was gutted as I had intended to take my BRG SE to work that day as the sun was out but the passenger window was faulty.
Maybe next time.

I spotted a red J reg with S2 wheels turning right by "The Excavator" pub near Ripley today. We both had our roofs up because it had been bitter outside. :roll:
