I've seen loads, but I think that because I live by the docks in Southampton- Loads of transits, and interestingly Hondas. Oh, an Evoques. Normally in white.

3 Kias; 2 Porsches; a few vans and other assorted hatchbacks/repmobiles.

Probably a dozen or so in total.

There are a surprisingly large amount in the works car park. Ranging from a base spec Fiesta to a Carrera 997. Think in total there are about ten 12 plates in the works car park, and there's a VX garage on the other end of the car park, so I've seen loads of Astras and Insignias trundling down the main road (on dealer plates) when I've nipped out for a fag.

Seen a few econoboxes, that's about it. I'm sure I'll see a few more once the hire companies take delivery of dozens of Astras etc.

Not really surprised though.

The only 2 I have noticed were a Cayenne and a council owned Transit tipper.

On the way to work I spotted about three, and when I got to work I saw another two.

As some have not seen a '12' plate I took a photo (or two) so you don't feel left out. laugh

I saw a VW Golf back in mid Feb on a GJ12xxx plate, with trade plates half covering it.
Maybe getting some fuel before prepping and delivering for 1st March?

Most likely. I knew the registration number of my car in mid February and it was PDIed on the 27th for delivery on the 2nd of March so it was probably kicking around somewhere on it's '11' plates a few days early.

Absolutely loads around here. Hate living in Aberdeenshire - makes you feel poor if your car is over 3 years old. Oh well, hope they all enjoy the depreciation hit.
