I was just coming along the road that you were leaving on. There was some cars in the centre lane waiting to turn right that blocked my view and we passed either side of them at about the same time. I just spotted you before we passed them.

I was wondering if you spotted me or not. I was in my Red GTII. I guess not!

My mate spotted a white E reg MK2 on the southbound M5 last night around 8-9pm. Not 100% sure whereabouts he saw it, but it would of been somewhere between the M6 and the M4 (so that doesnt narrow it down much then !!! :hugegrin: )


Don't ask me....it was like that when i got here !

Overtook the same car at around 07:40 this morning on the M5 southbound just north of Cheltenham. Can now confirm it's a GT with Avus alloys.
