| OK, so there we are, driving home from our honeymoon from Devon to Birmingham, and we spotted another R32 filling up at the garage. I waved, but I guess the driver wasn't the talkative type. Still, always nice spotting another R32.
So we head up the M5 homewards. Somewhere around Somerset I pick up a second R32 - a midnight blue one (they're not exactly thick on the ground AFAIK), fairly shifting. I kept pace for about 15-20 miles, until Bristol, when a succession of cars pulling into the outside lane and then sitting there, refusing to move back into the middle lane, meant that I lost touch with the other R32.
And no, I wasn't going to overtake those lane-sitters on the inside just to keep up. There was one Range Rover Sport in particular whose driving was erratic enough that he was either looking for a race, behaving like a moron deliberately, or doesn't know how to drive on the M-way. Either way, there was no way past and my dark blue travelling companion slowly headed off into the distance.
Two R32s on one journey's not bad, though.
