today about 16:00, followed a black Mk2 GTI A208(?) LEG leaving Derby on the A52. It turned off for Sandiacre whilst I continued onto the M1 from the same roundabout. Car looked good, lowered on some larger than standard wheels. Owner gave me a wave, I was in the silver X reg GTI if you are reading this!

There`s a blue scirocco blowin warm wind into my face
The sun is shining on the underside of the bridges
And there`s cars going by with smiles in the windows

Loads round here in Oxford.

Well - I say loads - Morrell Avenue (just off St Clements) has a dragon green Mk2 parked at the base of the hill, and a white Mk2 parked at the top of the hill, I live less than half a mile away - so you can add an Arctic blue metallic in the near vicinity. I've also seen a red Mk2 doing the rounds occasionally at Churchill Hospital. Unfortunately owing to Oxford's anti-car stance - I don't think any of them have seen me out and about (though there has been many a second glance from fellow dubbers, and a Polish group walking up Headington Hill asking "what's that..." with the reply "iktory Vulksvagun Scirocco" :D

My mate said he flashed a silverish Scirocco going past Golden Acre Park at the weekend thinking it was me.

He thinks that the driver thought he was warning him about speed cameras or something as the Rocco braked and slowed down after he flashed.

Having just re-read this, i know the things that go on at Golden Acre Park and when i say he 'flashed' a Scirocco, I meant with his headlights whilst on the road going past Golden Acre Park. From what he was telling me, he was not actually in Golden Acre Park taking part in some dogging action 'flashing' a Scirocco. Although, if you were in the Scirocco you might be able to tell me different.
