Spotted on Billy Connolly's Word Tour of Scotland last night on Dave - Flash Silver GTX by the looks of it, following Billy's maroon Range Rover round the streets of Edinburgh. Didn't catch the reg unfortunately!

Re: Spotted
Is there any merit in suggesting we don't bother spotting mk3's? They're so popular now that it's not very interesting if someone sees one. Plus I expect 99% of the drivers wouldn't be on here, unlike mk1 and mk2 owners, so it'd almost be a miracle to get a "that was me"! What do yous reckon? Just a thought to keep the thread worth reading. By the way, that's not a criticism of anyone who has posted mk3's!

Re: Spotted
Um, not sure that would be very popular with the owners of mk2s that also have a mk3!

Re: Spotted
I mentioned this a while ago. But the general consensus seemed to be that despite it being almost entirely pointless posting them up here , people wanted to do it.

Re: Spotted
Exchanged flashes with a Mk2 about 30 minutes ago on the B3000 outside Guildford. Think it was a Helios Blue GTX, didn't catch the plates.
Made my day cos that's the first time I've seen another 'rocco whilst driving Gave a rather overenthusiastic thumbs up.
