Hi
Seen in Heywood today, I may have reported this sometime ago as well. It is a V dark Aubergine colour, but trying to bring out the colour using photoshop has just made the top of the front wing a bit bright

Hi
Drove all the way down to Cornwall today and didn't notice anything memorable on the road, but did spot the tail of Cornwall Aviation Heritage Centre's VC10 K3 as I was leaving on the FlyBe DHC 8 en-route back to Manchester.

Then saw a blue "M" prefix Mini in Bromley Cross on my way back home this evening.

A nice blue Rover P6 driving through Glastonbury this morning, I like them with the spare wheel on the boot.

In Cardiff today... Lancia Beta coupe ?Zagato?, a very nice Jaguar XK150 and a Ford RS2000 escort. Must be the sun bringing them all out.

Went to a small military do down on Portland, Weymouth today. Some really nice vehicles, an American half track, Sherman Tank and a few Willys Jeeps. There was one inside that the kids are allowed to sit in which was good.

Hi
Gloucester services Northboind at lunchtime. A "K" suffix reg.

Then later a red, chrome bumper, MGB roadster on a transporter on the M6 and a dark Turquoise N reg Disco on the M65, the latter was on high lift suspension with a prominent orange sump guard showing at the front and a blowing exhaust

Out in little Dodge earlier, the occupants of a BRG MGB Roadster gave a cheery wave, and I also spotted the local 1928 Star driving by while I was parked outside the school.
