Dutch 480 in Somerset

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

Dutch 480 in Somerset

Post by aidanmorris » Fri Jul 14, 2017 11:02 pm

Driving back from London to Somerset along the A303 on Thursday night (foot down in order to make sure we make it in time for last orders at the village pub) and what do I pass but a black 480 with Dutch plates somewhere around Sparkford/Yeovil. You won't have noticed me in a 1995 BMW 525 Touring (sold my 480 earlier this year) but you made me smile - hope you enjoy your travels in UK!

Not content with us sending our dashboards over to them, it looks like they've sent some scouts in ahead of the invasion! :rofl:
