Dark Blue? 4200 Coupe reg ??VV? Leaving Ross on Wye on Wilton Road, going toward the A449 / A40 junction. I was waiting on our side road to turn out driving the wife’s Merc towing a Horse Trailer. Sounded lovely.

Oh in that case, you get 10 points for every 'ghost' he overtook. They get -1000 points for driving like a zombie (their eyes appear to be open but the brain has clearly switched off!)
Even worse - I may have got close up and personal with the very car on the Maserati stand (it looked exactly the same but I never made a note of reg) at Silverstone Classic Car show yesterday. I never met the driver but certainly highlighted my experience to several Club members.

Dark ?grey ?QP approaching Moreton in Marsh from Boughton on the Hill around 5pm yesterday - I was in the S2000 (and lots on the Maserati Stand at Silverstone, including an Anniversary Blue GS spyder that I had been interested in last winter, but was too indecisive - it looked stunning and the good owner has clocked up around 4k miles this year)

It's best to get up close and personnel at 0 mph than 70 mph.... ;)

Heading back to the UK in the GT via Stena line, hook of Holland-Harwich I just passed a Dutch 4200 cabrio, got a friendly wave.
We chatted with a group of Dutch S2000 owners for a coffee at the bottom of Splugen when out there - they were super friendly (liked our Spyder also)

Drove past me on the A14 today near Bar Hill. I was waving for about 10 seconds before remembering I was in my company car!

Grey-haired driver - anyone from the forum?20230831_172607.jpg

I regularly do that too - except I don't have a company car.

Just completed a 2300 mile trip through France, up into the alps into Italy, and Switzerland and back, I didn't see another GranTurismo. Saw a MC20 a few Lavente's in Monaco and a Blue Ghibli in calais waiting for to board the Ferry (got a thumbs up there).

Driving in most place resulted in people staring, videoing or taking pics of the car, I felt like a celeb !! A great trip.

Metallic grey QP 5 driving in the Boxworth services (A14 west of Cambridge) around 18:45. Lots of damage on drivers side doors. Ouch.
