Saw the new Noble M600 fly past me on the motorway last week up near the Lakes. Must have been a test drive of some sort.

An orange Murcielago SV parked outside the front door of our office last week.

It was quickly moved on as the Queen was on her way (to the Guildhall)

This thread sort of begs the question, how long at the current rate of crashes etc will it be before the S falls into the requirements of this thread. After all its not exactly common place now, I go for weeks sometimes not seeing any, and I often drive all around central London Etc

I don't think it's a Lister, since I believe that he didn't make the Jag engined specials until 1957.

The front looks more 'C' Type but I can't make out the badge on the bonnet.
