Just been out running and spotted my old Roadster stopped at a red light on Kenilworth Rd. Sold it nearly 5 years ago and 100 miles away to someone living in Reading iirc - so certainly very surprised to see it in Leamington Spa today. Looks in good nick still, as well. Anyone on here own it now?

That is all.

Did you downgrade to an ST170 after selling it? wink

Yikes, profile is way out of date. Yes ran the Focus for a year but never really fell in love with it - BMW running costs but Ford quality! Annual mileage drastically increased so went all tdi, now looking to get into something exciting again...

But this doesn't solve the mystery of how my old roadster got to Leam on a chilly february morning!

Either coincidence or the current owner is trying to track you down to discuss the car's past.

I'm going with coincidence.

I had a previous owner of my car approach me at last years Hop Farm MX5OC meeting. Said he only soldit as it was going pink, so I'm now certain someone's had it resprayed since.

Not always that way. If there's enough paint it can be cut back with a machine polisher.
