Yesterday I was giving the old MGTF a run to the golf driving range and on my way home I drew up next to a Bentley V8 2 door coupe at the traffic lights on the dual carriageway going into Bolton.

It was a beast of a car, new plates, metallic grey with huge alloy wheels with the Bentley logo adorning this super car. I had to have a peek who was driving what must be a £200,000 car, but it had really dark smoked windows..

I had the top down on my battered MGTF and nonchantly pressed the button to bring down the passenger window to have a proper gander. Simultaneously, the driver's window went down on the Bentley and I asked what turned out to be a Manchester United and current England international if he fancied a straight swap?

He smiled and winked and replied with not an ounce of malice, "F**k Off". It made my day!
