was this you in glasgow ?

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

I seen this red J plate again yesterday! It's an ES (although the badge is broken) and is suffering quite badly from paint fade!

found another 480 grey/lavender metallic colour K reg 1.7 S .
owner left a note on dayghters 480 saying he was selling his as a spares car rather than have it scrapped so I went to look at it the only significant fault was a duff top hinge on drivers door and some water in boot. So I showed him what was wrong and how to fixg the water ingress. So I effectively talked him out of selling the car! Another 480 lives to ride again. ;)
