Was literally talking to my work colleague in the van today about my failed 480 project and how I long to see a good working one when LOW AND BEHOLD... A black beauty pops out of nowhere! We both shouted in shock, and also kinda freaked us out! Just up by the Heineken brewery crossing princess road!
A great looking example whomever it belongs to!

Great spot and rare these days!
Mind you, you did see "a good working one" just the other afternoon...

Haha very true, but at least I was expecting that one! I thought for a minute I had woken up in 1991!
