I saw one also last night on the M62. A white L reg estate doing 95 in the outside lane.

Not even a turbo one. Got me to thinking though, I was driving my mates XM which is a later model than mine, I could have easily overtaken it where as my XM would have struggled with it, but I value my clean licence. So dropped back a bit. A lot.

Had our 19RD up to 106mph (GPS) once

It was a leg-end of a car.

Ok, the 19n/a lump is in my back garden but........
