Saw it yesterday (March 6th) at about 1 o'clock. It was heading south towards Northampton.
What car is that?

That was me!! And I'll have you know it is Midnight Blue, not black (although it's hard to tell under the dirt right now, I'll admit...)

Just leaving work (Mercedes F1 engines) and heading home for an afternoon off to celebrate my youngest's 3rd birthday.

Were you in your Lotus? If so, apologies for not spotting you!

Funnily enough, I just noticed from your gearbox post that you are in Northampton so I wondered whether it was you. I was in the wife's car as my wife, my son, our dogs and I had been to Brixworth country park. Too much stuff to fit comfortably in the Lotus.
