GT40 kit car (I assume) in full Gulf livery up at Boreham heading onto the A12 Saturday. Looked and sounded fantastic.

And a nice Austin 7 on the lanes around Terling.

Lots yesterday morning, inc an R107 in traffic in Danbury, an early gold Esprit on a trailer in the same traffic, an Aristocat XK120 on the A127 followed shortly by a Phantom Drophead, then an Avantime in a dangerous spot on brook st. roundabout having a wheel change. Then an M5 with the reg ' 735BMW', which was being driven a bit silly. Later on a lovely old Cadillac on the M11

Saw a Maserati QPIV between Maldon and Danbury this morning, and then a Mistral on the A12! Also spotted a Nova near Danbury the other day.

Can't be many of those in the country - less than 10 would be my guess.

I think that the QP4 might be Maldon local as I've seen one about a couple of times in the past.

White Alfa 4C on Parkway in Chelmsford & a red Porsche 944 on the A12 passing Brentwood this morning.

Nissan Tiida (never seen one of these before: a bland, large hatch, not sold in UK) & an overland style Pinzgauer in Chelmsford yesterday early evening.

Couple today so far: green S3 E-Type cab at Chelmsford's Boreham Interchange - one of my favourite cars; and a white Cayman GT4 RS in the city centre. Yesterday mid-pm & an M-B SLC (R107) parked on Broomfield Rd opposite The Ship.
