Yes that was me, was using it partly because the rocco has picked up too much damage in the work car park from careless door openers and people who can't park, and partly because the rocco was blocked the golf on my driveway.

That was me who you spotted, I'm sure I waved back! Really wanted to get a closer look at your Mk1 too :-(

Any opportunity to post a photo 8-)

It's not that tidy in reality, a van went down the passenger side in a car park. Spotted you again this morning but I was approaching the roundabout as you went past.

Oh dear! Paint works awful on mine as well as when rub strips were removed it took paint off with it down to bare metal and I sprayed them as a temp measure but look really bad!!

Spotted a very tidy white Scala on Chatsworth road, Chesterfield this morning. It then headed down Markham road and towards Horns bridge. I was in a blue Lupo. My guess is it was Hulmzey72. Been on the lookout for that Scala for ages if so.

Has been a while, saw a tidy looking mk2 going towards the texaco roundabout in forking from leather head ( dark blue or black )

Obviously I was in the lady's micra for the first time in weeks.
