Was anyone heading on holiday on 14th of Aug with bikes at the back? I met dark blue mk2 on junction of M25 and M1. When I joined M1 northbound, mk2 was just beside me and we checked out ours cars. I was driving Viper Green mk3 so it's was impossible to miss me ;)

Wheee! That was me - it feels good to finally get spotted :D

(Typical, though, I get spotted when I haven't washed the car in 3 weeks, so it looks a state...)

Dark Green Scala outside my new office on 'The Green' at Winchmore Hill, North London - Wednesday 25th around lunchtime.

Colleague spotted an orange Mk1 there today - probably Maciej who came to London Volksfest for a couple of years.

Seeing this nearly every day now, either on the way to or from work. Sadly going in the opposite direction, so I can't set off in hot pursuit :pilot:

Flash red GT2 today at the Post Office in Pelton, Co.Durham. Spoke with the owner, gave him the details of the register but he says he doesn't have internet!!!
I had a chat for about 10 minutes, states that he has had the car for 5 years and has spent £15700! on it in this time doing everything and using genuine VW parts only, a new Pierburg £1420, fuel tank and filler neck from VW, again massive amounts. Looked nice though, so maybe will see at a show in the north east sometime.

Anyone know of a rocco with extra lights built into the grill? I sometimes pass him on the poole roundabout and he then turns off to christchurch. About 7:30 in the mornings.

Helios Blue (?) MK2 E***OPR on Saturday afternoon, heading southbound on the A1 near Biggleswade, Bedfordshire.

Just typical, the first time I see another Scirocco in 4 months, and I was in my dad's D reg BMW instead of my own car! :roll:

Oh well, was it anybody on here, as I think I've seen you before on the same stretch of road...?

There is a nice looking Mk2 in the latest top gear mag(October issue). There is a pullout for shell v-power and its on the front cover of that (page 42/43). Anyone on here?
