Spotted three E85's this week, two blue ones in Tonbridge and Southborough and both gave that 'acknowledged, nice car mate' wave that we do while trying to remain cool and not flapping our arms around shouting "YOHOO! ME TOO!". And a silver one today near Tonbridge as well.

This morning in Norfolk on the A149 near Dilham a red roadster going towards Wroxham (top up? it was far too good a day for that!) and on the coast road heading from Sheringham to Chromer a blue coupe. Both going the other way to me - blue roadster top firmly down :thumbsup:

Yesterday at 18:15 in the dismal rain at Canwick Hill crossing into South Park in Lincoln, saw a dark blue E85 (looked like PX04 *** reg) - snapped on the dashcam:

Spotted what I’m sure was a pre facelift Stirling Grey e85? It was around 13:45 on the A420 road between Shrivenham and Swindon, not too far from that Esso Garage. Pretty sure I saw a Z4 sticker on the windscreen! I flashed but think the passing was too quick to get a return! :thumbsup:

This morning by the Elevdon War Memorial a phoenix yellow coupe heading for Thetford - that colour (and to a certain extent the shape) does remind me of my millennium puma 8)

You wouldn't have seen me - I was in the family workhorse (galaxy).
