LHD TRD Mk1 on A303

Post by Dollywobbler »

Ok, who was it on the A303 in the burgundy BX Mk1 LHD on the A303 this afternoon? Thanks for the wave - I was in the yellow headlamped Renault 21 Monaco. Moving quite quickly (great motor, but not as nice as the BX when things get twisty!)

TRD was being followed by a GS which appeared to have a missing rear window. Made that section of road much more interesting for me!

Not me, but if anyone saw a white BX and a black XM in convoy between Halifax and Hull yesterday.... :roll:

That sounds like it might have been Chris Salter, he has /had a maroon Mk1 Diesel of Italian origin and he's a known GS man too.
