Spotted this last Sunday on the A40 heading towards London, coming out of Oxford - saw the xenon's in my rear view mirror and the guy quickly caught up with me. Looks pretty good, exhausts are on the outboard bit of the car (as opposed to being in the middle on the hatch), and the driver was certainly not holding back - we convoyed for a bit before I headed north up the M40

haha - I was trying get far enough ahead and park up to get prepared to take some decent, non fuzzy pics, but he was going too fast for me to get in front before I had to turn off

Also, when I was at uni, again on my way back from Oxford, I went to the Motor Heritage Museum at Gaydon, and went up to the then, Rover site entrance. As I approached the roundabout a prototype Range Rover, part disguised was going round the roundabout, followed by an entourage of cars - I joined the back of the calvacade (good word, eh?! ), in my super duper Rover 100 (Knighstbrige SE, I'll have you know, colour coded bumpers, rear wash wipe, and a tilt and removeable sunroof! WOW!) and drove straight in past the gatekeeper.

I then chickened out following them too far in to the site tho! Didn't have digi cam or cam phone back in them days either
