Spotted!

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Spotted 3 this weekend all in the same area. One on Saturday parked outside the white heart in Bridgeyate (Bristol) was a kind of turquoise/light blue colour tin top with big wheel arches. Also 2 today driving in convoy on the same road, one yellow and one silver. Both modified and covered in mud, looked like they had a good day lanning :guns: .

Spotted this one driving through central Bristol last weekend (only just found the cable for my phone). Looks a bit like mine when i first got her.
