Just got back from mini-break up in the sarf east, only spotted two coupes in my 450 mile round trip \:\(

Caught a fleeting glimpse of a silver coop in Arundal on B/H monday afternoon.

Passed a speed red N plate 16v on the Bexhill road in Hastings on Tuesday pm, flashed and got a wave \:D

Hi Danirv,
the silver LE you saw coming out of Deal was probably mine being driven by the wife I was at home mildly hung over to say the least \:\)
I do wash it occasionally btw but the Kent London trip just leaves it filthy and to be fair the externals are on the "list" of things to do.

Hi Danirv,
Yeah, the wife has family in Deal and mine are in Dover and Ashford. We are down in Folkestone a fair bit as we have a flat down there (where I have spotted a very nice Silver LE looking almost mint shaming me into some action frankly).

The wife apologises for not waving as she was on the way back from dropping her sister home and the Dover Deal road is a bit too bendy for advance warning.

For the record my car is one of two Silver LE's in Hammersmith (mines the un modded one).

btw the wife asked what colour yours was? She'll Keep an eye out and wave next time \:\)

Spotted a scot green coop coming up Whitfield hill as I was descending it. My reactions to wave back were a bit slow, so I apologise if you missed my wave \:\)

Liked the rear spoiler! Interesting to see it in same colour as mine.

lady with her sprogs getting into a Red 20v in the car park at freeport braintree. I could tell her kiddies had spotted another coupe when they all started looking at the car in a kind of "oohh look mum, there's a car just like ours (only superior because its a vinci le)" kinda way \:D

Spotted 4 or 5 yesterday

A red 16vt P-YJO parked on Southend seafront in the afternoon.

A porto 20vt driven by a blonde woman along by the Chalkwell end of the seafront who looked very confused when I flashed her.

A blue plus V-JJN a few minutes later round the corner who also didnt want to know when I waved.

And finally on the A12 north, a green or black coupe was behind me and came off at the Boreham services exit - it looked like it was lowered and gave a burst as it headed off toward Chelmsford.

Not very friendly our Southend coupe owners at the moment.

So who was in the "blue" Coupe driving through the Dartford Tunnel this morning? MrsC was behind you in her Polo, and apparently you kept accelerating for your own personal "tunnel run" moment!

She called me when she arrived at her destination and told me. She said "can't believe how good it sounded, it'll be great to get yours back!"

That's ma girl \:D

Yesterday 10:30am-ish.

Female owner driving a nice silver P reg (may have been late 16v/early 20v - sorry) on A12 passing the Shenfield/Mountnessing junction London bound.

Gave you a quick blap on my new horn ;\)
