Wow What a machine the M1! better still didn't realise that we had Japanese members too!

@markeg - theres a cool Aplina roadster S video where I don't understand what they are saying but really appreciate them describing the Alpina in Japanese.

Mark is English.... But I'm wondering if he now speaks Japanese he's been out there so much :lol:

Lovely to see a car like that actually on the road too

M1 on the road, lovely only ever seen them at Munich Legends in the flesh. I think they may have sold theirs though..

English? Used to like you, Bing Scots first, British second. I have been taking Japanese lessons but its an incredibly hard language to learn! Three (Hiragana, Katakana and kanji) character sets, not including the version in "standard" alphabet form. Whenever I go to work in a country, I do try to learn some of the language, rather than be just the usual "talk loudly, slowly, and wave my hands about" type.

The M1 was parked outside a high-end motors garage, containing a bunch of Ferraris, Lamborghinis and three Bugatti Veyrons. Lovely place.

Oops, sorry

I used to travel a lot many years ago. I was able to order beer in about 7 languages other than English, got by just fine

Grey roadster on the A312 around 09:30 this morning heading towards the Jolly Waggoner Roundabout from the M4. Top down with ice on it! Looked like it may have aero skirts?

Was in my coupe heading the opposite way.

Silver Roadster has started parking at the car park near Haslemere station, reg: H*H**

You probably don't see mine as you must get there before me.

To "V5 YAM" the Imola Red MC at Fort Kinnaird in Edinburgh 5 minutes ago - oh dear....

Did you have an itchy foot? Sounded like you were trying to scratch it on the accelerator? Vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom, VROOM, VROOM as you moved forward one car length. Was it fun to rev up and spin the rear wheels next to a pedestrian crossing? Busy/rammed car park with kids everywhere. Not the right time, or place.

Made you look like a tit, if I'm honest :thumbsdown:

Sepang MC just pulled into my work car park in Exeter. A colleague had told me about its being there before and I'd just assumed he was mistaken given the rarity. Pictures do not do Sepang justice. Very special looking car.

Black ///M R just passed the Porsche garage in Guildford heading towards the A3.
