Among what seemed rather a lot of marked BiB cars today there was a new toy...they've got their mitts on a Jaguar XF.

Used to seeing it in the Midlands. On trial perhaps?

Secondly I saw a fabulous old convertible, head up the M32 and onto the M4, which looked like a Park Ward Bentely S2 Continental. Tried looking up on various sites, reg 812 UKE.

Any clues anyone?

Predominantly white with very loud yellow and blue bits, the look is completed with lots of blue flashy things wink

Oh that's OK then, I thought I was being tailed by a dark grey XF yesterday.

Find myself minutely scrutinizing every midsize, late model, saloon or estate I overtake for unusual protrusions and fittings.

I end up doing the same...why can't they just stick to the 1 type of car like they used too, would make spotting them so much easier

At least it gives me something to do at 62mph getting 60mpg smile

Having spotted one I like to try guessing who they're going to go after biggrin

(Yes it's a dull life going up and down the M4 several times a day!)

In relevance to the XF (most likely the same caryes) about 6 months ago had a Peugeot 308SW delivered by Paragon to my works and the driver was being picked up by another driver who was driving a fully marked Police XF (Avon/Somerset markings)had been driven from Thurleigh over to Swansea and was going to be delivered the same day very nice machinethumbup
