Spotted ... for sale in a car lot in Whitefoot lane, Lewisham, South East London.....
Whilst out and about last week, inspecting the streets (work)... I came across this....
The elan is in a very cheap second hand car dealers.... and the sales office is the rusty old caravan you see behind the elan :shock: :shock: :shock:

Strange seeing it on someone else's drive, but it seems to be in good hands. New owner is already a forum viewer and no doubt will introduce himself at some point :D

Cheating a bit, but just spotted Adam (ashm) as he dropped something round to me... :smt023

... He just left with the roof down. Good lad. It's 3 degrees out there.

Calypso yesterday in car park Hoddesdon, Herts. Roof down in the rain too. Must have been a real enthusiast. Or an optimist. Or off his Ed.






















Can anyone cheat at this game? :lol:

I drove to work in a drizzle a few weeks ago and discovered I didn't get wet at 40mph or faster. Everyone definitely thought I was nuts though, and the traffic in Ascot was a bit of an annoyance...
I had a nice run home tonight, but I think it's time I put a woolly hat and gloves back in the car - had chilly ears when I got home!

Not a nice spot-

White SE on the back of a transporter with heavy front end damage. Monday, heading north on the M6. Douglass Valley bound maybe?

Could well be. I only saw the offside. I was thinking to myself is it worth £400 plus. Then I realised that was just for the roof :lol:

Looks like another E-Bay con merchant :? Wasn't Andy from Inverness caught recently buying a few bits and pieces but was basically bidding on a nut and bolt ?

That's great! Do they miss the old car? I could bring it to visit you all sometime when I'm next in Dorking. It's in fine shape! (and hasn't been resprayed burgundy - ugh!)

BRG SE, index number JAS xxN, spotted making its way up Gracechurch St, EC3, in filthy rain last night, about 12.45am Saturday. Was this you, and if so, why didn't you give me a lift, as I was getting wet.
