In Lclerc car park, Limoux , France. About an hour ago. Green, I was too far away to see reg. My
wife saw a green one a year or two ago in the same place. I don't know if he was
a holidaymaker or a local.

Hi - it was me. Rambo (H4 RMB) :D :D

Unusually for me the top WAS up :? I hit heavy rain showers from Killington Lake in Cumbria. Hood was down for 120 miles in my 320 mile journey from the Scottish Borders :? :? Made it to Hereford at 1822 so I guess you must have seen me about 1700 ish

Didn't see another M100 heading north or I would have flashed :burnout: :burnout:

PS On my way to the annual pilgrimage (Silverstone Classics) this coming w/e ;-)

Hello, Rambo: No, I wasn't in the Elan! ( LRG S2, reg. N 420 VJH.) I was in a silver NSL Care Services ambulance. Just been to Hereford County Hospital. I am going to the Silverstone Classic event, hope to get there about 09:00 ish on Saturday morning!

driving northbound on the M74 on Sunday afternoon, about 10 miles north of the Dumfries exit i saw a red Elan M100 flying past going southbound. Never managed to see the reg. It was pishing down so the roof was up.
