Hey Black Sabbath, was that you who joined the M25 today from the M40?

For the rest:

I set off today from Junc 19 M25 heading for Slough - in fast lane, I look in the rear view and see an E60 M5, in black, not tailing me but keeping up....

And then we get to the M40 - and along comes another E39 Black M5 (looking) with SSDD motorsport stickers all over the bumpers etc... I recognise the plate H 12 RTJ (?) as being a fellow ET member - so now we have 3 black M5's all in convoy on the M25 - people turning their heads and getting a good look - so I decide to change our pattern, and split lanes and now we have 3 black M5's driving side by side at 70-mph - I noticed at 4 people turning and looking - it was a sight to hold - unfortunately variable speed limits mant we couldn't put our foot down.

It certainly brought a smile to my face ....

Anyways - I was taking my car to show a prospective buyer ( who loved the car) and also to check out a couple of replacements for mine. All in all a good motoring day!

I also spotted a black new shaped M5 in Slough, followed him off the A40 onto the Uxbridge Rd, a very nice car. It was on Friday night-ish.

Not fully decided yet which way I will be going - but I still need to tick a few "must own" boxes - most likely a Porker next, unless I get a damn good deal on a 360.

The sensible side of me says Cayenne, the real me says - 911 or 360.

50% balloons on Porsches makes the PCPs look attractive!

Anyone been to HUDSONS in Bells Hill, Stoke Poges recently? WOW - Bugatti Veyron, Pagani Zonda, Fezza 612 Sc and round the back and in their workshop was impressive most McClarens SLRs I have seen in one place!!!

Well, the E60 M5 was like the Vauxhall vectra in there....
