Re: Who`s been Spotted..........
I was driving behind a Silver F in Guildford yesterday with the plate T4 VVC.
With a plate like that, there's half a chance the owner sails these shores!

Re: Who`s been Spotted..........
If any of you see me, give me a wave, or a flash, or a hoot, or
whatever is appropriate. You can't miss me.
Vibrant Orange LE500 with the MG logo writ large on either flank -
I am firmly of the 'If you've got it - FLAUNT IT !' school.
I don't do 'subtle'.
I travel between Poole and Romsey (Kimbridge) quite frequently, and
occasionally head north to Harrogate and back again.
Nowt like a little cameraderie of the road when travelling up and down the
flooded, gridlocked and endlessly excavated highways and byways of this
lovely nation of ours.
Oh - and thanks to the Webmaster for sorting out me avatar. (Where's the 'kissy' smiley when you need it ?)

Re: Who`s been Spotted..........
My first true Register spot today!
Saw a silver F in Billericay, Essex at about 4 o'clock driving on Mountnessing Road towards Radford way. I was going to wave but i spent too much time admiring the Register grill plate!

Re: Who`s been Spotted..........
Either that or their designer shades were blinded by your gleaming
motor and they went into hyperdark mode.
Maybe we need some sort of MGCC/F Register recognition device
that can be attached to the bonnet. It would ring bells and whistles when
it senses a comrade, and a little waving hand would be raised just to
make the moment extra-special.
What do you think James ?
