The I wasn't the Yellow/White Sprint on the M40 thread...

PostPost by: jimbo » Mon Aug 18, 2008 1:55 pm

Anyone on here? I only got a fleeting glimpse as it was travelling a lot quicker than I was, and my view was blocked my traffic in the middle lane. The hood was off. I think it was somewhere near Warwick heading South.

I was in the inside lane in my red over white DHC Sprint, although I am ashamed to admit the hood was not down. That was rectified at the next service station! :lol:

Maybe it's time we had a "spotted" section of the board.
There is one on Seloc, but I expect our's would be a LOT shorter....

It wasn't mine either, because mine's red over white and I was in Yorkshire at the time!

Sorry not mine, although I do have a yellow and white Sprint. Mine was tucked up in the garage (honest) I would have waved at least... :)

Elan's are clearly like London buses. I can't remember the last time I saw one on the road prior to my last 'spotted', but bizarelly I saw another one today whilst driving mine! I guess mine is an Elan magnet?

This one was on its way down the slip road of junction 14 of the M1 (heading South) at about 12:30pm. It was green with the hood down and looked like an S2. I don't think it's driver will have seen me as I was stuck in traffic trying to pull on to the roundabout from the Newport Pagnell direction as it departed down the slip road.

And no, I'm not going to rename the thread again!

I had an MX5 flash me and beep the other day. The damned cheek! How dare he! That's rather like Hilda Ogden waving to the Queen. :P
