Parking Next to the Same Model

[sim16v]

Mate spotted it on some other forum.

Story was

"Think it was a while ago, son said to his dad "there's a car down there exactly the same as yours with nearly the same plate" dad went down and had a look came back and said "it's not nearly the same it is the same,," rang the police, other car owner was from nz and lived down south, police took it away"

Ish.

[cherie171]

The same, and yet not the same...



I have to say, neither are mine, I just spotted them whilst out shopping, and thought it worth a snap for the thread.

Alan Sugar has certainly made a few cuts for this year's Apprentice.

Looks like the London Borough of Barnet according to the parking sign. This is typical of any predominantly Jewish area as well. Anywhere where people tend to have very large families. Most Previas live in Brent Cross though.

If you don't look at the badges you can't really tell them apart.

Almost!

My old M235i parked up next to a white M240i. Goodwood hotel, last year. Sold the car now.

An occurrence such as that seems to be rare as hens teeth

My rejected M5 on the left, replacement on the right.

[Tim bo]

Rejected why?

Apart from the fact that Estoril looks much better than Mineral.

Left is Singapore Grey with Silverstone interior, right is Monte Carlo Blue with Sakhir interior.

Singapore Grey one was rejected as it kept breaking down due i believe to contaminants in the fuel rail. Problem as you'd expect only presented itself when pushing on, but would throw the car into full scale limp mode as the contaminants were blocking the injectors on cylinder 1. After the 3rd failure & the 2nd attempt to fix, the car was rejected. BMW looked after me well if i ignore the lack of communication, got about £3k of additional options for free & a brand new X5 M50D to hook around in while the replacement car was being built.

Wanted MCB/Sakhir originally, but bottled it last minute in favour of a more discrete colour combo but couldn't bring myself to go safe with the replacement.

Does this count?

(Disclaimer: in the BRDC car park at Silverstone yesterday)

[lucido grigio]

Neither of these are mine.



Both TMEs.....had a ride in both though.

Nice afternoon so thought I'd head out. Arrived at my destination, this very nice quiet village to park in the one small parking area and found a younger brother Had gone by the time I got back to the car.

Think I might actually prefer the shape of my older car to the facelift, from the back anyway.

Points for anyone who can name the village

Haven't contributed for awhile.



Not often I find another GT to park next to.

[lucido grigio]

What are the chances of 47 Escort Cos' being in the same place ?





my old one appears in the second pic.....2009

First time I've found an estate to park next to!

How many left suggests about 500 on the road.

[VX BlackRat]

Mine on the right, my bros on the left.
I bought mine first, my bro then found his - from factory identical spec & turns out they were built on the same day on the same production line.
