My Quartz grey 220 Sportline having a well earned rest taking in the view of the Med after a 1000 mile trip.

 

Been a while since I washed Gandalf.

Pictures and naming really don't do that colour justice!

 

Enjoy

Yeah, it's a weird "magnetic brown" . Tbh, I just love the contrast with the interior. Really brings it out. A gem to drive.

Wish I'd bought that combo.

With that heavy dew on the car thought the colour was BLACK. OOPS!Should have gone to SPECSAVERS as Stevie Wonder once sang.

Thought I'd give you a SAD to get you nearer to the MAGIC 1,000points.

Have you altered the number plates for anonymity?

I never show my plates on a public forum.

Why, what is the reason ? I have always thought what may be the reason for this hiding the plates - as the car is every day on the streets - and everybody can see the plates for free.

 

Not arguing or anything like this - just asking for curiosity.

I never show my plates either. For me it is about anonymity. Many of us come on here to discuss good and bad things about our cars, and I wouldn't want a buyer or dealer being able to link my posting history to a number plate come sales time. 

 

It's the same with the names we use on here. Everyone thinks my name is Jeff and I live in Bristol, whereas in reality my name is Suki and I'm an exotic dancer from Walsall.

 

Here's a  gratuitous picture of my car, with obscured plates of course, just to get us back on topic.

A number plate is the key to finding out information about the car's owner, without his or her consent. ... This information can be accessed online if you enter the car registration on a certain website, or through paid services.

Ah now i understand.

In Bulgaria - where i am from, there is no way that someone can find out the name of the owner or the vehicle history by the plate number. Only people with some government or state access can check and find this information - located in a database.

Come off it @shyVRS245 - no-one's falling for that.

 

Usual place, usual time. And don't try that "forgotten my wallet" nonsense this time!!!

 

(I bet @ColinD didn't expect this when he set up Freedom...)
