However don't think it's on here, as my inane grinning and and nodding at traffic lights was met with a blank look..

Are you based on the Science Park?

I am! Not seen many Coupé's on the park if you work here! Only the occasional visitor - and i've been here for five years now...

I can't today unfortunately - I was meant to post a parcel for the missus as she is away on holiday but have completely forgotten... was going to bring it in today but forgot again so need to drive home, get it, then go to the postie, all in an hour!

What are you doing for the rest of the week? could do Sadler?

There is actually another guy who works at Nominet that has a coop, a 16v na, though its usually a weekend car for him!

Can't believe we've never seen each others before..


Edit: Also is our 'Company Day' tomorrow so Friday? or next week?

That was me and that blank look is mistaken for serious concentration!

Hi, yes, spotted you, nice modded spint blue - waved as you took me, though admittedly quite limply, on the way to the science park... unfortuntately my coupe might as well be a 1 litre polo - hence the granny driving today.

I have only just picked mine from Solo Italia having had the engine stripped and the piston rings and head gasket done... so limited to below 3,000 rpm - argh!!!....

I could only look on jealously as your coupe employed its turbo and left me for dust frown - previously I would have been thundering down that straight in my s2k.

I will wave more enthusiastically when I next see you... hopefully I will be free of my 3,000 rpm shackles by then.

1,000 miles feels like forever!!!

Not that large! Which is why it's even more random that we have never seen each others cars!

haha, sorry, next time i'll be a bit more respectful if its a bit poorly! It looked nice though, was checking your doors for the 'tin foil' effect at the traffic lights, they look pretty spotless!
Will meet up sometime next week hopefully. Might go for a wander down today if RusH's is sitting in the carpark!

Nice looking Black LE T297*** followed you from Hedge End roundabout toward Southampton about 1530ish today. Also saw S reg red 20V Turbo in same area about 1730.
Unfortunately as is usually the case when I see Coupes I was in Mrs Wals Zafira, typical rolleyes


If all else fails read the instructions

What was the sticker on the nearside back window, FCCUK? looked orange and red like one of those K&N Stickers smile



The sticker is 'perfect-touch' i.e where it was mapped originally, though after having it all sorted by flea recently it really should come off now!

Not sure which area this should be in, but I spotted two blue coops on my journey up the A303 on the way to Salisbury on Friday 2nd Oct.

Silver 20vt in central Swindon on Sunday 18th Oct evening. Was about 6pm and got a flash.

I'm sure I've seen you driving about before but I was on my bike, really had to stop myself waving laugh

Anyway, sold the car the next day so it was to be spotted on my last day of ownership

Few days late, buy hey-ho...

Red, 20v (n/a) on a T plate filling up at the BP garage Botley (Seacourt Tower) in Oxford on Saturday about 11am...

...driver looked suspiciously like Mark Gardener, the one-time lead-singer of 90s indie-types Ride....
