Two more this evening - a gray Roadster in Springkerse in Stirling and a silver one reg ending KTC in Bridge of Allan.
Summer weather bringing them out now!
 
Black facelift roadster on MV2s going through the lights at the bottom of Lower Stone Street in Maidstone this morning at about 1000.

Chap on his drive in Allington at about 1010 positively loving his steel grey pre-facelift on 202s (I think), aero kit and IIRC it also has AC Schnitzer side repeaters. Seen it many times but I think it has been tucked up for the winter and he's just gotten it out again. Was doing a great job, very shiny :thumbsup:

Didn't stop as a) I needed to get back to ferry Wee Bing somewhere, and b) it seemed a bit weird pulling up outside a stranger's drive to have a random chat. Thinking about it though, I may do next time :D
 
Sterling grey e85, Victoria gateway, Southend. I just turned left and couldn't react quickly enough to flash, I just looked at you and nodded. I got blanked :(

We need to sort this forum logo/badge/ID out, can't deal with all this rejection....off to drown my sorrows :(

Between J4 and 3 heading London-bound... Was going waaaaay too fast to see the number of occupants :evil:
 
Seen plenty this week looks like the weather has brought them out - lots of Z3's about as well. Nice Black m coupe going through saltaire, and a blue coupe a few days ago on dewsbury road. Lots of cabriolets around the halifax huddersfield bradford area
 
Dark blue facelift roadster last night on slip road from A2 up to Sun in the Sands roundabout and into Blackheath. Lady driver wearing ipod headphones. I gave a little of the beans to get past you for which I must apologise as it may have looked and sounded a little aggresive (if its any consolation the gf started telling me not to be so silly).
 
Dark blue pre-facelift roadster with a champagne interior, about 5 mins ago on South Park Rd, Maidstone, roof down as is right & proper, especially in 16 degree glorious sunshine :thumbsup:

Got a nod and a smile which I returned - first time I've received an acknowledgement :D
 
Grey M Coupe G** OMB in parked just round the corner from me in Poulton le Fylde also Blue 54 Plate E85 with a lady driver passed on the way to the garage... private plate E85 grey must live near me as well as seen him going to work twice now Forum members?
 
A white E89 undergoing a precarious looking jacking up job using the hard shoulder kerb, M5 Nortbound just south of Bristol today, I assume it was a tyre? think I would have trundled on with the run flats :?
 
Spotted and had a chat with a guy with a 2.5 titanium silver on private plate plate in reading tesco petrol station, Portman rd. I was in my 3.0 Titanium Silver on an 03 plate. Had a good chat after saying snap when paying at the counter. Also belongs on here as we both mentioned we are members.

Only bought mine 2 weeks ago, we noticed mine was sitting considerably lower, both cars had 18"s. Anyone know if the 3.0 came lower as standard or has mine been lowered?

All 3.0 came with M sport suspension. 15mm lower than a 2.5 in standard trim :thumbsup:

That could be the reason why! Will check the springs tomorrow for any eibach writing on them. Remember them being black and looking pretty new when I bought the car...
