The Latest 1st gen sightings

[Tepper]

A918 FLO would be me. My name's Will Tepper and the car is currently in Romford but it will be transported to my lock-up in Reading in 2 weeks' time. I'll get pics of the car up including plenty of what's left of the conversion when the car's with me.

I've not got any white S3 cars permanently resident in Wales.

Only got a white S2 lives down in South Wales.

No Reg?......I could easily see then if it's gone on it's holidays.....

No reg unfortunately, it was parked side on and in a drive way. Didnt want arrested snooping about :p

I think my wife may have got a partial though, I'll see if she can remember.

Ok after a quick chat, we think the first part of the reg was similar too C417, it was definitely a C reg white series 3 though.

That any help?

Doesn't match anything I know......Maybe a NEW SPOT!!

It might pop up in the future. What area of Wales is 'Pants'. Near where?

Cheers and thanks Dave

Probably as close to a brand new 1st gen as you're likely to get for under 10 grand...... which is still a lot of money but a bargain when compared to the 25 grand asking price for that series 3 in Scotland...... I know which I'd rather have.....

Doesn't seem a lot to me. Not for a car like that. I reckon I've spent that on mine already, for example. Worth every penny, I think
