Spotted In South Wales (Vol 3)

Silver 992 S/T wearing the number plate A 911, on the M4 near Port Talbot this lunchtime. Probably a journalist on a jolly. Not far behind it was a Subaru Forester STi, in blue with gold wheels. Grey Aston Martin Rapide on the M4 near Sarn.

A few Ferraris today. Leon Esfahani on the Mumbles Road in a very flashy one. Is it an SF90? Something similar on the M4 too, and a matt black GTC4 Lusso on German plates on Fabian Way.

More interesting though was a red 205GTi 1.9 on the Mumbles Road and a pristine E-reg Maestro 1.3L in gold on the roundabout by Sarn services.

The plate A 911 has been on various Porsches and I believe it's owned by Porsche GB.

Was it wearing the plate 2LE by any chance? If so I'm very envious as I've been waiting to see that!

Eta -

Was it this?

Yes, I think so. Sorry, I’ve sort of lost track of the modern Ferrari range.

I don't blame you. You saw a Ferrari SF90 XX - the first road legal version from their FXX department. A rare 'spot' indeed.

A 911 is indeed owned by Porsche GB, same as 911 HUL and a few others. Was most likely a journalist like you said. The cars are hard in Porsche GB HQ in Reading, I’ve been there a few times.

I used to live up the road from Porsche Reading, so seeing A 911, OPR 911 and 911 HUL were regular spots. Portman Lamborghini were based on the same site as Porsche for a number of years. Not every day you see a Diablo in a ditch and a fed up looking mechanic waiting for recovery at the side of the road.

I lived in Reading in 2016, saw A 911 and 911 HUL a fair few times. I also saw a storage unit out the back where there were 5 or 6 918s and 5 or so Carrera GTs. I was besotted with one CGT in particular! Lambo had moved to Pangbourne by the time I was there.

Stunning. I have seen a couple in the flesh in Bristol and Silverstone OPC's, but still waiting to see one on the road. I see that one has the WP pack, what did it sound like?

I saw this last week, good to see it must be a local car.

Chrysler 300C wearing some form of North American Police livery and an orange Renault 5, late 80's model, both on Bridgend Industrial Estate.
