Ugly Bloke

Were any of you there at North Weald on Sunday the 1st of August? I saw a couple of Corrado's on the strip, one in particular caught our eye. It was blue, with storm badge on the rear and was running a turbo. It was running 13's but more stunning was the speeds it was going across the line, pretty close to 120mph!! :) Didn't get a chance to have a look around, as we only had a 30 minute break.

Last Monday evening around about 18:30hrs. Mystic blue, seriously lowered, on the A35 between Christchurch and Lyndhurst (heading towards Lyndhurst) it looked and sounded superb, possible private plate. Was it you?

Monday 17th of May, I spotted a very nice green Storm. On the M27, heading westward around the junction 2 area and I think it exited and headed towards Cadnam. Looked wonderful in the sunshine.

Spotted black/dark blue J plate Corrado G60, on the A4 by the Taplow Sainsbury, that was Wednesday evening (21st) about 19:00hrs Then a K reg blue G60 between St Marks Hospital and Furze Platt area of Maidenhead. It was parked up, looked very nice and standard.

Green N reg spotted on the bath road, heading into slough from the trading estate. Very very low indeed, looked nice.

Just spotted from my window at work. Corrado in dark blue, rolling on BBS wheels (big) and crystal rear lenses, very shiny and 4 cylinder by the sounds, with modified engine, beefy exhaust, popping and banging on the over-run. I think we've seen this car a few times around Maidenhead/Marlow.

Spotted a white G reg 16V in White Waltham This afternoon at about 16:00hrs mulberry I think VR6 on the M40, from the London direction going towards H Wycombe and it was doing about 110mph and harassing some Mondeo man. :) Awesome

Yellow K reg, on big wheels with smoked rear lights, on gardner road Maidenhead at about 14:00hrs today. Then a burgundy Corrado at a garage on the Cordwallis Estate at about 15:00hrs (looks to be having some work done)

Blackberry on the M4 between Maidenhead and Reading. You were heading westbound, looked awesome in the evening sunshine. I'm a Benz E class estate. Also spotted a dark car (blackberry again) on Spencer Rd Maidenhead.

Sunday 19th at around 17:00hrs, a green 16V heading out of London on the M4 near Heston services.

Last night in Sunningdale Virginia Water area, spotted a dark blue VR6, E1PSM. Absolutely stunning stock car, a credit to the owner. Then about an hour ago, Cookham Rd Maidenhead, a red (I think) 16V with clear rear lenses. Another very clean looking car.

B4447? Where exactly. :( Saw a white G reg 16V in Eton on Saturday.

G plate 16V in green, parked up at Mr Clutch on Gardener Road Maidenhead.

Great write up. I'd love to be in the market for cars of that value. I couldn't chose a Panamera purely because of the woeful (IMHO) styling. Seen a few and they looks crass and heavy handed. I'd take the Maser Quattroporte, travel much slower, forsake some of the handling, just to look better. :)

Quite a few XJ220's were made to be road cars, but the financial crash of the time meant few were sold. In fact 3 years out of production, you could still find brand new unregistered cars! :shock: One of my neighbours has one in BRG, it's way too wide for these little roads. I spotted a mystic blue 'rado in Pinkneys Green Maidenhead, driving at high speed past the Robin Hood pub/bar. It was a VR6 with BBS rims and as we were sitting outside, we could hear it changing gears. Doing at least 80mph! Awesome sight and sound.
