You must have had neck muscles like an F1 driver even without the flip visors! I guess you get used to it.
Shaft drive was a good thing for long distance use. My CBR1000 broke a chain in rural France and wished I had one then.

No Maseratis spotted but about 30 UK plated super cars (Lambos, Feraris etc) in a handful of batches as Roary was enjoying his bath

European countries have never been able to put points on your UK/NI license (irrespective of the B word)

So all those years of total alignment worked then :naraz: one would have thought is could have fitted in amongst those 4000 law changes that had to be made , and now ought to be undone

20230616_144734.jpgSpotted in Coustellet this afternoon. 06 Paris plate? Pretty sorry condition unfortunately. Cracked back window. Dent on rear boot lid and nasty scratch on rear quarters. Looked like it was outside a Mechanique so either for sale or for fixing...
A ZF so not sure if one for Phil

Might be there for bodywork repairs but even if it was for sale they would want more than I want to pay.

Silver Grecale heading down the A48 towards Chepstow. First one I have seen in the road and didn’t really move me one bit as dare I say it just looked bland. I like Maseratis to stand out in the crowd and on the road it just didn’t. I think it was a standard car so not the top of the range thingy.

Three masers in convoy yesterday!!! A 4200 spyder, Levante and a GT around Passo di San Lugano (a pass we weren't expecting) but we having a coffees and delicious ham and cheese sandwich from an amazing shop (sadly no space in boot for their delicasies). Turned out the GT was a GranCab as they were again spotted near Merano at the end of the Passo delle Palade heading towards Passo Resia 42k away (and maybe Nauders and Stelvio). Again we were stopped as Mr RR needed a computer cable - success thanks to the wonders of google.
