Spotted white es in Nottingham

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

Spotted white es in Nottingham

Post by WhiteWolf » Tue Sep 20, 2016 1:48 pm

I was driving down the A612 between 12-1pm in Nottingham..
White 480 es. It looked lovely. Very shiny.
I was in my white one going the opposite way. I couldnt honk my horn because it doesnt honk.
I never thought I would pass one never mind a white one.

To be brutally honest. If you would of put mine at the side of the other one and took a photo it would have looked like a before and after restoration shot. One day mine will shine...

That’s a lot of 480s around Nottingham.

Up until I got a new job the other week I was using mine to drive around the Nottingham area at least a few days a week, more the other side though, M1 J26 up to Hucknell.

And I also spotted one on way home one evening (not white and typically that day I was not in the 480) but that makes 4.

Some people in Nottingham must have good taste. My other half caught glimpse of one in a supermarket carpark in Nottingham.. Beautiful cars. When I saw that one yesterday I fell in love a little bit more with them. Having the vantage point of being the other driver really made my day.
