The UK S550 "spotted" thread

[NornIron91]

No, missed the cows fortunately .... however, been out in Derry/Strabane/Omagh for a couple of days so plenty of tractors :doh:

You were only a few mile away from me when you were in Omagh, were you in the stang?

White vert in m11 services (near Stanstead airport ? )

God I'm a long way from home

It was a work trip so I had the pleasure (!?) of driving a lovely Peugeot rental car ...... it was horrible! - i think they used the gearbox from a truck, the engine from a vacuum cleaner and tyres from a 1923 pedal bike!

Well it is a Peugeot, what do you expect? :lol:

White GT with black stripes in the Legoland Windsor priority car park this afternoon.

Looked very smart!

Black GT with custom pack in Gunwharf car park this morning.

yesterday we were entering into macca's in our mustang and see an magnetic gt fastback coming towards us so we gave him a thumbs up so did the guy in the magnetic gt.

Another Triple Yellow, non-custom pack fastback (definitely a GT this time). A41 in Tettenhall heading southbound into Wolverhampton about 8:45 this morning ..... I assume not the same one I saw in Belfast last week?!

I wonder if that is the TY mustang that you saw, ignore the macca.

Ingot Silver on the A429 between Malmesbury and the M4.

Quite possibly .... it's a Mustang and it's yellow! ;) Difficult to tell from the driving seat of another car whether the Mustang I saw had OTT stripes.

A nice comparison between the TT and Mustang. Which would you rather have?! ..... bit of a 'no-contest' really.

Like the Macca a lot but, along with Lamborghinis, I think they always look better in shouty colours

Yeah they definitely need to be in a bright colour. Macca v Lambo? It would have to be the Lambo, I've always been a fan of them.
I may have to stick with the mustang though for financial reasons

Rather have a GT350. Didn't Chris Harris say that Lambos are now for people who can't drive?

Yes, a GT350R is something I would love to have. If Ford do bring any to the UK hopefully the price would be 'reasonable' (?:eyebulge:!) at around £55 to 60k, and for that money you just can't beat it (if all the US road tests are to be believed). Hand on heart, I can honestly say that a GT350R is the car I want most; it looks fantastic and it's probably going to be one of the last naturally aspirated, large capacity performance engines - and what an engine! I f:censored:king LOVE the engine!

For me, the only cars in the same 'desirability league' are naturally aspirated lumps of Italian aluminium and carbon fibre costing at least 4 times as much. I'd rather have a 350R over any Porsche, Audi, BMW or Mercedes, that's for sure!

Anyway, all a bit off-topic so I'm saying no more or I'll get told off! ;)

Danger of going off topic but dont worry I will bring it back at the end of this message!

Yes, I am with you. I was in the garden on Saturday and my son asked me if I could have any new car other than the Mustang, what would I have. For the first time in my life I struggled to answer and the 350 is what I came up with. Either that, or take my car to GT101 or Bill Shephard and give them a fistful of dollers to make my Mustang the best it can be....and I think that may be what I would do...its my Mustang!

Anyway,

Sunday, saw a DIB Stang on the ridge in Hastings. I waved like a freaking nutter and got nothing back at all! Made me feel a right goon!
