Saw them this morning and yesterday morning on Newgate Lane. One was a little battle damaged the other looked in pretty good nick. Anyone here?

Didn't think either were you mate, the battle damaged one looked like the front bumper cover was about to fall off! :shock: T'other one was a C reg so couldn't have been yours.

Well I have been waving to a guy in a mica blue mk1 the last few mornings. A guy with blue front foglights, I figured it was you...

Yes it was you!

My offside wing is developing a nice rusthole and my front numberplate is held on with cable ties due to the mountings rusting off/broken off when towing. I must be captain battledamage.

Depends, I have to spot you, think "MR2" and wave. If I am distracted while stuck in traffic trying to get out of Gosport I might not wave back. We'll probably run into each other next time I'm on late shifts at the same time as my other half is on a rest day. That seems to follow the pattern of when I saw you. On other days I leave earlier.

Aye I usually trundle down Newgate at about 8:15 - 8:30, on a good day!
