A silver stretch Cayenne, with phone numbers on it of course and black windows (silver would be better, I always liked beads of mercury), which kept pace with me down my road tonight through the 6pm postmarket traffic.

The thing was very long indeed, looked the length of a modern London double decker (and yes, there was one nearby to compare it with), but with a somewhat longer wheelbase. It was set up perkily on its suspension, perhaps a bit higher than normal but perhaps not, and greatly impressed me by making the left out of Ladbroke Grove not into Westbourne Park Road, which is set up for buses, but Lancaster Road which isn't, and leads directly to recording studio or gangsta (please note the a) land. I was impressed because despite the very long wheelbase it made the corner with decent despatch, like a bus, despite the presence of a car in Lancaster Road well out in the opposite carriageway. And with that high suspension it would have lolloped over the high ramps at Portobello Road which groundscraping chavmobiles have trouyble with.

Best of all, it made a quite nice tinny blatting sound from the exhaust and showed good acceleration and braking in the stop-start (very important that for you dozy provincial types).

Still it was a stretch and therefore beyond the pale (long chassis standard models are the longest cars a proper enthusiast will stand for IMFFHO).

Unhidden - 'cos I couldn't resist it. Look at it more like a DVD extra than a duplicate post !
