I only tickled the throttle as well, away from the lights...he stayed on the outside eventually passing before the next set of lights....I was at an indicated 55mph on the 50mph route.. He ran all the way to Riversway in the outside lane eventually pulling away by doing the same speed, 60 ish, in the 40mph limit over the flyover...before pulling over two lanes to take the off ramp to Strand Rd...complete t@ss£@. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People like that give drivers a bad name, regardless of what car they have. Even more annoying is they consume oxygen........... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Mc Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 Urrgh I hate them. Even on my drive to Cosford the amount of reckless undertaking at speed was ridiculous. Yes people sat in middle lanes and some refusing to override cruise control when in 3rd lane are frustrating. But to boot it in first lane zig zapping away only to get nowhere was distracting. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I deliberately joined and stayed in lane 2 for the simple reason that about 1/2-3/4 down, lane 1 became a slip road for a roundabout over the motorway. I got up to cruising speed and as i reached that speed, i noticed a black Jag X-Type join the motorway - a stretched X-Type. Black and stretched? Funeral car presumably. Soon after this thing went past on my inside at around 3 figures mph, not only were they undertakers but they were also Undertakers! In fairness they came off at the next junction (the one that lane 1 was a slip road for) and the poor car probably needed the cobwebs blown out after crawling at funerial speeds. Probably the best example of undertaking but i could type for hours about all the bad examples.......... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PTR200S Posted July 3, 2023 Moderators Report Share Posted July 3, 2023 Red 2 litre T920 coming the opposite way as I trawled through a 20mph zone coming through Southport...the one Andy spotted at the garden centre. 🤣🤣🤣 Well shiny !!

Moderators PTR200S Posted July 4, 2023 Moderators Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 Out in Elly this morning, turned right out of a T junction on a back road and clocked a green Coupe on the left road...had the trailer on and loaded so didn't turn around to go back, to look. It was spoilerless too !!! However, will be up that way for a job next week so will maybe see it again....its a "posh" area, nothing less than 22 plate and EV to boot for residents 🤑🤑🤑🤑 so strange to see it there 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators PTR200S Posted July 5, 2023 Moderators Report Share Posted July 5, 2023 As it happened I was just out in the Coupe this saffy near the Coupe I saw a couple or so days back..its actually in the cheaper end of the "posh" bit 😄😄😄 It a two litre version in purple, not green ( must get that specsavers appointment) tidy, low miles, but badges on the offside back missing. According to the mot history it's really good and only does about a 1000 miles a year for last few years..just 67k at the last mot. Oh, look, there's another Coupe in front of it !! Wonder who owns that one 😜 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torogo Posted July 10, 2023 Report Share Posted July 10, 2023 My street also features the green/purple combo, though both 3l Coupes - the ‘99 purple is mine 116k miles, whereas the ‘01 Green on 62k is the one that inspired my purchase. Learned recently that the owner of the green one (since ‘04) had died unexpectedly, so his widow needs to find a new home for it. The car was mot’d in March, at same time as major service at Honda (belts, plugs, filters, fluids etc costing £1500.) Anyone on the forum know of anyone able to offer an exceptional Coupe a good home? Reckon anything over £2k would secure it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PTR200S Posted July 15, 2023 Moderators Report Share Posted July 15, 2023 That purple 2 litre clocked again....no one around, just parked up again..different place. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators PTR200S Posted July 29, 2023 Moderators Report Share Posted July 29, 2023 Passed by the purple 2 litre again this morning whilst on work duty, parked in the same place as last time so I suspect it probably lives around there... Two hundred yards up the road was this too.!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Subscriber’s Josh98 Posted July 29, 2023 Site Subscriber’s Report Share Posted July 29, 2023 A couple spotted today at festival of the unexceptional... Gold was a 2.0 and the purple was a v6, don't recognise the reg's, not anybody on here are they? Amazing event btw, unbelievable turnout and the weather held too, will post a few more pictures elsewhere in a few days 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators hughezee Posted August 3, 2023 Administrators Report Share Posted August 3, 2023 Nice to see the coupes getting some coverage, not seen those ones before well not in the flesh anyway. 🤔 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Subscriber’s Chrismas Posted August 4, 2023 Site Subscriber’s Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 There is a green one hiding somewhere in Torbay, possibly Brixham, with the gold plated badges. I've never seen it parked up and only being driven around the area. There's clearly around 170 on the road at the moment, but not that many on this forum, I'm thinking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators hughezee Posted August 4, 2023 Administrators Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 We did have a respectable percentage of owners compared with other online communities covering more common models, which has faded with time... Just for interest, I've updated this post linked below. 🫣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovely break thank you. Staying with my brother and his partner and just feels home from home. Weather has been a mix between overcast with very occasional “mizzle” and sun……could’ve been a tad warmer but we’ve had 3 good full days on the beach. Cornwall is a funny place for changeable weather 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornwall is a funny place for changeable weather Those Cornish are a funny race of people. And you pay to leave, via the bridge, not to enter. So that keeps them all in one place. Jam on first as well. Shocking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
