danhicks22 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Came snaking past me at the lights onto Golden Valley roundabout a little over half hour ago. You didn't want to play Car looked though. I was in the Blue one Looks like you may have had a couple of other spots in the past from Pot, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pot Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I think the ones I saw were pretty standard, so this could be a new Cheltenham Sup, or someone's been upgrading Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danhicks22 Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 Ooh, the plot thickens! I've seen a standard red one a few times near the A417/M5 junction in Brockworth but this one was new to me. Was quite a deep metallicy red, although it could have been the rain/darkness making it look darker than it is. Looked like Trial or similar rear, maybe VS skirts but I don't remember actually looking at them so I'm probably making that up. Sadly didn't get too much chance to study it. Did exchange a nod and a smile with the driver at the Princess Elizabeth Road roundabout lights - my first with a fellow owner on the road. It was a great moment for me.

Carl Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 yeah, i seen this one around to. In fact it was last sunday, I was on my way into Cheltenham when I saw it and obviously gunned it past down the dual carriageway between golden valley & GCHQ. It looked Burgundy red with a lot of bodykit extras on. He did try dropping a gear but i was already turning left at the lights by the time he realised what had happened..,lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pot Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I was about to quote you and ask if you've noticed the change!... Although I've never seen a speedtrap down there as I go down that each day on the way to and from work, and the only place the coppers could park is in a bus stop, which is always busy with busses every 10 minutes...

danhicks22 Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 I think you'd be pretty unlucky to get caught along there but I do occasionally see patrol cars and there are quite a few unmarked cars around at the moment. I suspect I'll only risk it occasionally, if at all. Still, there's something about speeding past a government building that appeals to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pot Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Still, there's something about speeding past a government building that appeals to me When I come home from Brizzle, I come down there but turn right into GCHQ, floor it through the roundabout outside there, and take note of all the spies that are working there... They're not exactly what I see on Spooks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewie Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 I dare you to screech to a halt, leap out and take a few happy snappies, jump back in and storm off. You wouldn't get 100 yrds from either roundabout before MI5 get missile lock on yer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pot Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 You're on - It'll make a change from trying to run all the spies over... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
