I brought my old 323 from Norton Way 8 years ago and they have always been great.

I've posted some pics of mine - see Filthy / Gorgeous.

Talking of 323s, I had a Fastback. They made the best shape (with pop-up headlights) G,H,J,K and L I think. Mine was an H reg, lovely car. I still see loads on the roads, and have yet to see a bad one with any rust.

Got a wave from a winnig blue this morning, just after 11am, on the Branston roundabout, Burton-on-Trent, leading onto the A38. I think the number plate was *** JSD??

passed an 8 on the Black Horse roundabout in Widnes around 9pm last night, it was heading towards Cronton.
Not sure what colour it was cos it was dark, but it looked like a red (was it you Pitva?)
as usual it had passed me before I realised what it was !!

Yay, first forums spot.

Nice edit of my post

I think I could have guessed it was you if I saw it was ***JSD

Could have been me as well - I saw a silver one at about that time, I was coming out of the Bombardier Virgin train depot

Saw a lovely new Red 05 plate at the turnpike roundabout on the A419 yesterday at 5pm.

It was coming out of the new ring road past Motorola.

Hi, Lancia. I think it was JSD as he gave me a wave, and he commented on my big mouth!! (I've got a lowered number plate). Where's the 'Bombadier Virgin train depot'? Is that at Barton? I see you are from Littleover. I'm over in Littleover quite regular. My brother lives there, and when I spotted JSD, I was just coming back from my weekly physio appointment at the Nuffield hospital. I don't think I've seen a blue around Littleover, but I have seen a black one. Anyway, maybe we'll spot each other soon.

New 05 plate titanium parked at work in Hursley today.

Now not the only grey, theres a blue, red and black already, so grey must be the best colour...

Couple spotted in Hoddesdon today:

Red 04 heading towards the main roundabout. Strato blue 05 (I think) going towards Stanstead Abbotts.

OCRX8 · Post by **OCRX8** » Sun Mar 06, 2005 4:45 pm

Saw quite a few today.

Firstly a red 190 with red & black leather coming out of Melksham. Waved but got a bemused look back. Saw it again in Ikea in Bristol a few hours later!! Private Plate R800MO*

A Silver in Leeks of Melksham carpark reg X11BR*

A Black parked in a driveway just opposite Leeks, blinged up with chrome alloys and polished fins, reg SD54UN*

And lastly a black on the M4 heading eastbound, just before junction 18.

Saw 2 other greys and a red on the A205 early this afternoon on a nightmare journey from Dulwich to Birmingham. I hope you don't have to drive on that road often whoever you are if you're on here - it took me just under two hours to get from Dulwich to the M4. Thanks to the red for waving back too.

Saw another grey and a silver heading south on the M40 slightly later on.

Titanium 04 parked on the main street in Queensbury Sat. lunchtime and a shiny Winning Blue ahead of me in the queue at the King's Cross lights in Halifax.

Sue · Post by **Sue** » Sun Mar 06, 2005 10:56 pm

another red spotted (DE04***) heading down Wheathill Road from Huyton this afternoon, driven by a lady who looked surprised to see another one coming towards her

Hi to the red one with a private H plate on the M25 J16 who overtook me last night

Hope you didn't get stuck in the jam as well...

Drove to Sevenoaks and back on saturday. Just short of 500 miles, hardly any traffic either way and No KIDS. Bliss.

Followed a grey for a while on the M25 between M1 and Thurrock services about 9am ish. Saw a Winning Blue at Thurrock Services and a Red on the road to Brands Hatch, about twenty minutes later.

Sue · Post by **Sue** » Mon Mar 07, 2005 3:47 pm

I've had a few sightings today...are they becoming too common?

A man in a Tit with a 'pixy' reg on M62 heading towards Warrington just after St Helens junction around 1200, then a man in a Winning Blue passing The Swan pub at Winwick about 20 mins later, then a woman in a Black driving through Cronton towards Widnes later this afternoon.

no recognition from any of them

, but i'll let the WB off, cos I wasnt driving the car, but was parked on the pub carpark

I've never seen so many in one day except for meets and Prodrive!!

I may have been the winning blue at thurrock, drove up to thurrock to do a spot of shopping from sussex... stopped in the services before 10 to let the other half whip in to the facilitys and then got some petrol

I followed one off the dartford bridge too on the way back later, think it was red, i know we went through the toll one after the other and i was a little too keen to keep up with it her after... snaked away from the toll booth to the alarm of my other half

Brilliant Black 53 plate on A66 heading towards Boro. Too far away for recognition really.

StephenR wrote:Although I haven't got my RX-8 yet, I thought I would mention that I saw 7 of them today - yes, SEVEN! Is that some sort of record? I usually only see one or two now and again, but today I saw four on my way to work, one in the car park at work (he is usually there though) and two on the way home. Good spread of colours too - 2 red, 2 blue, 1 yellow, 1 black and 1 silver. I always seem to see them on the road with lots of roundabouts that runs alongside M6 J20-21. Anyone here drive along that as part of their commute?

I bet once I do get my RX-8 I won't see another for ages

Very old post now I know... but this might have been me. I've had me yellow fellow since August and I blat pretty much all over Lancs.

I'm usually at the Mascrat meet so that's probably why you saw me round J21, if you did...

Also, if it's a road with lots of roundabouts, I like it.
