The Tagora is damn rare but was super comfy inside  I worked at Ryton on the track in the 80's taking amongst other jobs the final Alpines and Solaras round the onsite test loop..........

Something weird going on - during a 1-hour journey on the M40 from Brum to High Wycombe, I was overtaken by FOUR Audi RS4s - all separately, not in convoy
Don't see one for months, then they all arrive at once. Couple of them were up for some sport, but I had a nervous passenger with me, so I held back few months ago on the M62 somewhere between Manchester and Hull one of these went screaming by me (I was doing a "little" over the limit) chased by some sort of superbike. Both made me look like I was standing still, they must have been doing 140 MINIMUM! but god what a noise, esp the bike

I seem to remember surviving Tagora's were in double figures at most, and dangerously close to being single figures. Very rare tat. Can't be many left at all. My old man had one from 83-87 and they were rare then. He had a Pug 604 before, which was equally unusual. Saw a Y-reg Chevette on the A63 near Monk Fryston earlier today.

In Chelmsford on Sunday I saw what I thought was a Red 959. However, as we got nearer it looked more like a replica as it just seemed too narrow and sat too high - infact it sat like a cross between the old FIAT 850 Coupe and a Skoda Rapide - with a 959esque body on top  Had a google to look at 959 replicas but can find nothing as 'narrow'

Ohy my, would love to see a pic of that evo.
Hmm 959 in red is a wrong, any Porsche in red is wrong actually.

Just driven past that Silver MP4 12c again! Going along the Wedgenock Lane in Warwick about 15 mins ago. Nice car and great to see fully road-registered but was sooo quite and did not look special enough from all angles for me as a Supercar......

saw a Bristol on the M1 today. Never seen one before, reading up a very rare and interesting car. Glad I didnt challenge it to a race, would have been humiliating.
