"Under the Bridge" Spotted

When you spot a 480 and wonder if it's someone from the forum: ask it here! One rule: do NOT post registration plates.

"Under the Bridge" Spotted

Post by Jay-Kay-Em » Mon Aug 25, 2025 6:57 pm

A second-hand spot from a friend today....

Pictured at a show near Orwell Bridge, Suffolk, called "Under the Bridge".

At first I though it was Seymour but clearly not.

Did a search on UPW but doesn't bring any threads up.

Not a car I recognise. Looks tidy though.

I think that belongs to Sharon Northmore who posts on the facebook UK group. She's a friend of Zapcity and came to one of the Rutland meets with him. My Snazzy was also a UPW reg originally, it's a Norfolk one.
Al spotted her near Thetford once but he was on his own in the Saab so he didn't give chase. She has had the car a long time and loves it.

Ah yes, Seymours twin!

Would like to try and get a pic of them together at some point!

It was a lovely day at this meeting and only 5 mins from me.

Only Sharon and Rod are 480 regulars at our local meetings currently, but I'm hoping to make it three really soon!
1994 480GT
XC60 T8 (wife's rocketship shopping trolley) and XC70 D5 hack
C70 Coupé Convertible for the sunny days. Still got it! Should sell it but can't!
