Did anyone else spot....
 
The Abarth when we were heading to Barmouth? It was coming the other way, away from Barmouth towards Llanelltyd/Dolgellau.

For those that don't know what they look like, it's this (and it was identical to this one except the tinted windows):

The driver was shifting it a little (as you would in that car), and was actually on the wrong side of the white line when I saw it, but I can forgive them as they quickly moved over.

I forgot to mention it when we were stopped. :(

Yes I spotted him. He was getting a fair crack on and I was impressed how flat it was cornering.

It looks like it may of just been me & you Mike.

I dunno, these bikers are supposed to have decent observations. :rolleyes:

Seeing as you mentioned fast Fiats!

Here's what ive consoled myself with seeing as ive had to give up biking.

Mine is exactly the same as the pic. Mike saw it earlier today but only the back of it in my garage!

Yes Baph I did spot him as I was behind you mate , I pointed at him as he was on my side of the road a bit and I gave him the "Stern hand of Naughtyness" and motioned for him to tone it down a bit ...... he was fairly hoofing it though , I thought it was an Abarth but I swear I saw Red and Green stripe on it ?

I didn`t pay that much attention as Baph was taking a nice line on a right hander and that thing came scuttling around the corner on my side of the road a bit , They guy with the Red Pointy was behind me at the time so he would have seen my friendly gesture towards the driver :)

What is so special, a fiat 500 with go faster stripes, why bother? after all it is a bloody fiat, small, unreliable, rot boxes

Certainly not something to have a wet dream over
