Never seen a 'Ro round here, but is it a 4 Door Monaro? If so, it is a VXR8 and it is mine smile

Agree. Don't know of a blue 'Ro around here but a VXR8 would look quite a bit different to a CV8 Monaro. It can't be my 'R8 as it doesn't sport a PH badge.

I know a lot of people who call the 8 a Monaro though.

rofl

I think it happens because Vauxhall swapped from the Ro to the 8 and people generally only remember the name of the Ro.

biggrin Howdy. Not spotted you yet, surprising as I work near Caversham. See a White VE on occasion burbling down the road towards the bridge.

Am usually to be seen pooling around the Woodley area. I commute into London so not usually to be seen on the main roads during rush hour. You should get yourself along to some of the meets, keep an eye out for Kentucky Sunday meets wink

Aha! So you're the owner, I often roll down my Windows to admire the Noise, I've followed you off the Shinfield road roundabout by the petrol station a few times now.

If you see a Black Alfa 156, sporting a PH badge above the exhaust pipe, that'll be me!
