Default just moved...

Have just moved this weekend to a 'nicer' part of town (IMO of course...) and have already spotted a few beauties out on the country roads....

Sat - 57 plate F430 and DBS
Sun - 911 GT3RS (997 - black with orange)
Mon - Gallardo.

I'm a little embarrassed to take my S out in such company....

I am however loving the country life....I can't imagine a 'free range egg' honesty box would have been overly successful at my old gaff....

Did fall off the bike on the frozen country lanes yesterday morning tho....a big dent in my pride that!

Thornbury....amazing what a difference 15 miles can make....

Lovely roads out here too...so look forward to some nice summer drives...The car is now WELL off the road, so no worries about it getting scuffed etc which is nice and it looks so much happier in its new surroundings.

One happy bunny.

Don't be - many owners of supercars have been interested in the S whenever I've met them

The air is clean, the cow sh*t fresh, right up my street!!!

The S looks pride of place outside the barn rather than couped up on the terrace street...

Spent 9 torrid years living in inner city Hull on a terrace street, the move to my current place has been nothing short of a lifesaver ... enjoy the new surroundings
