Still looks awesome

And the best colour for them, IMO.

Anyone spot anything amiss though?

Looks like a fog light grille on the bonnet. And there are no numbers in the number plate?

Identical to my old one. :-( apart from the black wheels.

Where abouts was it? I think mine is way, way up at the top of Scotland.

Yeah, I potatochopped the plate to protect the innocent.

The note on the windscreen said something like "you parked without your handbrake on and your car rolled into ours."

The intercooler grill was kindly placed on the bonnet (presumably by whoever wrote the note) and the front wheel chocked with a bit of brick.

The car looked mint inside and out, other than the missing intercooler grill.

It was in north London.

Is that Nogaro blue?

Nope, but it might have had a plate change.

It's been ages since I saw a Noggy RS. Forgot how much I like it.
