It was a pleasure last night (friday) when traveling home to come up behind a Silver B7 at J4 of the M5 at about 6pm

More pleasurable was to travel in convoy all the way down to the Warwick services where I peeled off for fuel (a common occurance!) - 2 B7's together

I now understand why drivers move over when I approach from behind - it looks awesome when one follows you.

It would be nice to know who the driver was, and if they post here.

The only other one I have spotted is the black B7 that seems to travel between the Welshpool area and Shrewsbury occasionally.

PS, for those that want to track how well a high mileage B7 does, follow my posts. Exactly 3 weeks old and 4000 miles on the clock. The engine is really freeing up nicely and the MPG is going up slightly (18.6 ave)

Already accepting bids for April 2008 with about 96,000 on the clock
