Porto turbo heading north on the M40 around 4:30pm, had LE side skirts by the look of it, think it was TPO or TBO on the number plate

Nightmare - couldn't do that everyday. It was almost as bad again from J7 - J6. No wonder you're not using the Coupe for the commute!

I used to run a 306 DTurbo before I got the Coupe. Great fun car and pretty pokey for a diesel. Didn't notice anything wrong with yours but they all have passive rear wheel steering though so guess the wheels might not always appear to be in line smile

You get used to it. I'm paranoid about the 306 since the rear wheel bearing went and gave me some interesting handling characteristics smile

dark red coop on M25 heading from kent towards Dartford Bridge. Drew behind and flashed lights once and waved (but no response) before I had to turn off for Bluewater taking kids to see night in museum (rating: 3/5). Probably thought I was some nutter - so not completely wrong then.

Porto blue heading West on the M65 last Saturday (06/06/09) afternoon, around 4-5pm.

I was in a VW Camper Van I'd just bought and gave them (2 in the car) a toot on the horn and thumbs up. Got a wink back!

They got of at the M6 junction.

Anyone on here?

Two in one day! Return trip to Watford... First one, R-plate Sprinty (presumably 20vt) heading North, just South of M1 J15 at 18.00, went past me in outside lane.

Second one, just pulling out of M1 J19 (or was it 20?), Electric Blue (presumably Plus) at around about 18.30.

I was hobbling along along in lane one, as I was carrying some IT gear back up from Watford, in convoy with a colleague, value unknown. And two other words, expenses and overtime :-)
