I see none in six months then two black E86s in two days :D

One in Pool in Cornwall, had a chat with the owner, Mark, a good guy. Then one entering Batheaston yesterday, sorry no time to wave, was trying to dodge the truck veering into my lane!

Looked immaculate.
Thank you for sticking to the 30 mph limit, even though hot-hatch man with his go-louder exhaust was right up yer chuff!

I've had mine 10 years and 100k miles and only been spotted here once - and that was someone walking past my house and spotting it on my driveway :D
I’ve been on here for nearly 2 years and not spotted, not many forum members in this area unfortunately
I've been on here for years and again never been spotted. Then again I don't drive down south that often.
As there are only about 270 E86 countrywide I suppose the chances of meeting someone else out at the same time are very slim. By the same token, i’m not seen on here very often :rofl:

I was driving out of Morrisons petrol station today turning right and spotted a really nice looking white G29 driven by a lady. I wondered if she would let a fellow Zedder out but the car in front of her's beat her to it. :thumbsup: Freindly lot in Totnes, if a bit strange :rofl: :thumbsup:

Grey E89 going northbound on the M5 with a shortened private plate starting with an M, unfortunately being driven like a cnut.

Have a word with yourself.

It’s been done to death on this forum

The number registered in the U.K. quoted by me IS accurate

The way third party sites such as “how many left” record them ISNT

This:

http://perso.numericable.fr/tonyz4c/index30si.html

put together by a member on here lists every one sold worldwide plus all their factory specifications, put a couple of filters in and you can see the exact number registered in the U.K.
