What are the odds? I was sitting in my car waiting for SWMBO and this pulls up and parks next to me. Brentwood Bay on Vancouver Island, Canada. It’s obviously an ex UK car as the steering wheel is on the wrong side :lol: :lol: (plus the not so hidden plate)

I was in my van I think it was Thursday 13th March (two days ago)
I spotted a red M100 In Glasgow heading east ready to go over the Kingston bridge, It is the first time i have seen one in Glasgow other than my own.
I would have loved to get a photo but it was driving and had committed to go down the M74 rather than the M8.
If you are on here show yourself... :D

was me ! I wish I'd taken the m74 too as traffic was rubbish through town,
a rare trip to fife to visit a mate, almost had the roof down but decided against it, watched a rock come flying out between truck wheels at larbert, bounce a couple times & then skip off the roof.
anyway its my 1990 NA ( without PAS), I've had it 15 years and after replacing the distributor etc last month its running perfectly again, needs a good service, but thats on my list,
cheers G
