Curious, why is it on my trip home every day, around 4PM on the Swindon to Chippenham strech of the M4 there always seems to be a lods of Aston's about?

I see a couple of DB9's, at least 1 Vantage and Vanquish almost every day without fail


And whilst I'm on the subject of that strech of the M4, are those specs cameras on the eastbound carriagway (just after Chippenham) new?

Yep

Thats the ones

Poeple seem to have very little regards for specs in general, constantly see people treating them like Gatso's - slam on the brakes then speed up once past them

I've also never heard of anyone being had by them

I went through that section last weekend and the specs were gone.

Nope, youre meaning the old set by the roadworks right by Swindon

This is a new set literally just past the Chippenham junction!
