Gold at Longwater Norwich

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

Gold at Longwater Norwich

Post by Swanny » Mon Mar 21, 2016 9:57 am

Finally! I've not seen a 480 on the roads (apart from mine) since I was a nipper, so I was more than a little excited when I spotted a lovely looking gold example in Norwich on Sunday. Sadly I was in my fiesta, otherwise I would have chased it down and popped the lights in admiration. I'm not alone in Norfolk then :hopping:

Definitely not alone - my son lives just down the road from Longwater and I live near Loddon, so you might see one of our 3 480's sometime. We have an ES and a turbo in Paris Blue, plus a dark green GT.

Jesus! It seems Norfolk 480s are common as muck, so I might get rid of mine since it isn't as rare as I thought it was :lol: My Turbo is back on the road so awaiting a 'spotted' mention, since I'm driving it at any given opportunity (when I'm not underneath it). Keep up the good work, I'll keep an eye out.
