smokey engine and bad paint can be fixed but once it's on V-car, that's it...... no getting it off. Shame.

is the car known on here?
young blonde girl driving it, anyone know who it might be? would be good to know more local owners, spotted right on my doorstep, and probably local as it was spotted in the tescos carpark!
I'd love a reg number.

Re: The Latest 1st gen sightings
There were two pairs of show cars in this country in the early 2000's.ian65 wrote:
One pair .....1 Red (YGP) and 1 Silver (FKK) were both later exported......I presume the owner couple emigrated. Interestingly the cars were featured when the couple got married....they used them in the nups. The Red car is one of this pair.....It was a show car at Billing 1999 / 2000.
By coincidence the other pair were Red (RCE) and Opal Green (TKR).......and they were split up......the Opal Green car going to a buyer in Northern Ireland. And here's the coincidence....it's here on the previous page.
The Red one (RCE) of this pair disappeared off the radar, but since it won every event for years and since it's still live on DVLA it's my guess that the couple who owned both cars sold the Green one and stopped taking the Red one to shows. So one day it might appear again.

I asked my gf why she didn't get the owner's details... maybe she would've done if it'd been a bloke behind the wheel
