The UK S550 "spotted" thread

Somebody must have been pointing a cameraphone at it; or maybe he was leaving an event.

I certainly think it stands as a warning that we should all be wary of our excitement, enthusiasm and testosterone levels when we're driving these things.

There's quite a few threads, posts and pics throughout the M6G forums, including a few recent ones in the UK, in respect of people who've found the S550 can be rather twitchy and will travel just as fast sideways as it will forwards - and a quick search on YouTube has plenty of examples of just how much you need to respect a RWD car with this sort of power!

That's awful. It does however prove that mine was not the only one in Devon. Still not seen another locally. - feeling a bit lonely down here!

I was on A34 early yesterday morning on my way to Silverstone for Moto GP - think Centurion07 overtook me in his white mustang - recognised the Martini side stripes. I was not in my mustang as had a car full of people & going a long way so had to be my white Honda Civic Tourer diesel - just as well because it took 6 1/2 hours to get home due to horrendous queuing - my clutch leg would have been suffering in the Mustang & not a lot of room for six footers in the back!

Spotted [MENTION=21573]twiggy[/MENTION] this afternoon on the A4 near Theale. The S550 looks superb in Ingot Silver

I was in my SN95.....but only just saw you at the last minute. I did wave.....but I was probably passed you by then :headbonk:

 

[Tacklebury]

Passed a black vert in Waltham chase today around 5pm. Flashed and got a wave.

 

[Jimboy2]

Passed a magnetic yesterday in boarhunt. I was in my van and flashed you. Personal plate DARK

 

[Manders Mustang]

Okay, lets hope people flashing doesn't become a common thing. I had a guy in a 2004 Audi A5 constantly flashing me like a lunatic, looked like he was getting stressed out that I was doing 70 in traffic; Like, angry flashing, no waving, just a wanker symbol for driving the speed limit... Logic. Thought the first flash was a 'I know you' then the Second I was like maybe i have an indicator on, then I got like 10 in a row with wanker symbols and the guy getting frustrated..... Urgh.
