The Big Question!

[arbydb7]

I'm off to Exeter tomorrow afternoon, heading off from Southampton area about 2pm. Heading back home again Sunday lunch time. the big question is how many spots on the spotted TVR section will I get on the 250 mile round trip??
Answers on a postcard. LOL, now I'm showing my age.
Rosso Pearl Mk1 Tuscan, Union Flag PH Sticker on rear window.

My guess is Zero. but lets see who gets it right. The time and place from any spotters will be required so that there are no false spots.

I will stick my neck out and say 1.

[scotty_d]

None i have driven the length of the uk loads of times in my tvr and have never had a spot out side Scotland, The Scottish spots are local Tivvers normally

[F1SERB]

Im with you Richard

I been out and about in mine loads this year and not spotted once

Maybe i should change the colour

[arbydb7]

Nothing wrong with that colour. I think we are starting a weekend spotting frenzy. Weather looks good for it too.

[swanny71]

I'll predict zero spots.

I've done a similar journey (Portsmouth/West Devon) many times and never been spotted, although it is usually dark and/or pissing down when I travel.
You might do better though as the weather looks good and you have now advertised it

[arbydb7]

Advertising. lol. I feel like "Where's Wally"
Where's Richie. I'll make sure to wear stripey clothes.

[arbydb7]

Well so far 1 or more spots and Steve will win. well plenty of time yet to get your guess in.

My son has just come in and said "Just seen a red Tuscan with a Union Jack in the back window in Hedge End Retail Park"
Is that a spotted???

[arbydb7]

Boom. My first spot. Yep. Popped to halfords for some Mobil 1 oil. Oh yeah and KFC. Good spot.
Can't count it for tomoz journey spot count comp though.

I went Norfolk to Hampshire and back last Thursday. Spotted once at 8pm on the A3, in 350 miles.

[arbydb7]

But what is your guess for tomoz??

[QBee]

Once.....if you are very lucky

[LaserTam]

None - Couple of years ago, did a trip from the South East to Scotland, driving almost every day for 8 days and back again. No spots

Particularly this time of year, sunny weekend in May and you may have had a better chance.

Whereabouts in Exeter will you be? I live there and am always on the lookout for TVRs.

[arbydb7]

You sound like a car thief.lol

[steveT350C]

1st half of journey over I guess?

Haha, it did sound a bit like that! However I can assure you that your car is safe

[arbydb7]

Yep. 1st half over and still on target for zero spots.
Staying in Alphington. Had to leave car in road overnight, not the normal heated garage she is use to.
Hope she is not going to sulk about it and give me any trouble.

I live near Exeter, (Crediton) and the one and only time i was spotted was in Spain 2008, ha must get out more.
