Those 2 blokes don't look very happy. Is that a hearse next to you? :rofl:

Got chatting to the lads in this Z8 on the ferry too. They had just bought it for €200k and added the Z8 52 plate. A bunch of them are doing their own rally up through Scotland so if you see a Z8 with a big 007 sticker on the doors that’s them 👍

Was Zedebee driving towards Godalming from Guildford today at around 10.30am or is Maldives Blue more common than I thought?

Not me. It’s probably the commonest “colour” (i.e. not silver/grey) for the early cars and there are one or two around locally.

Funnily enough it's the only colour I haven't seen out into the wild aside from mine and my friend's.

See plenty in black, however!

A rarity spotted this morning as I rarely see any e85's these days.

M74 extension just after 7am spotted a facelift e85 coming on from the City Centre. Caught up and was behind him for a couple of miles before he headed towards the M73.

2006 Black 2.5si.
Square setup
No spacers
Suspension not lowered any

Did wave to the young(ish) bearded bloke as I was passing but it was maybe too early in the morning for him as I just got a blank stare :rofl:

Spotted this afternoon next to me at lights they on their way to Torquay, really nice face lift E85 silver grey with 108s and cream sport seats with matching leather hoops, he saw me so I waved and got a wave back. Yay! then on my way to Totnes another one this time a black E85. :thumbsup: Too late to wave this time.

Today, waiting for the steady stream of traffic to let me out onto the Paignton road a grey E85 came towards me. 'Oh look a Z4, he'll let me out' I said to my wife. Did he the hell, miserable old barsteward. 'Report him to the forum' the wife said. :rofl: So I have. :thumbsup: :evil:

I've seen the same one parked up on the left where the a37 meets the a4 just before the traffic lights that take you to Temple Meads.

Interlagos Coupe travelling west on the A31 (Farnham by-pass) this morning. Could have been Flimper?

Black M roadster with hardtop on the A31 (Alton roundabout this time) this afternoon. Reg something like EX56LRD, but not quite.
