I always find that whenever I'm up in the Birmingham area, it seems like every other car is Rover or MG...

I have just been out in my classic Mini after changing the anti freeze and blasting all the crud out of the heater matrix and found three others within about two miles of my house all do the same as me, bombing around the lanes!

Normally with the leaves on the hedges you can't see but at this time of year you can have a bit of fun

No idea where Guiseley to Grassington is!

Guiseley is north of Bradford and Grassington is up in the Dales north of Skipton.

I don't see very many around here. Weirdly, since I got an MG ZT myself I seem to see less of them than when I didn't have one, whereas you'd think it'd be the other way round. I see more R600s and there were a similar number built IIRC but then R600s were built in Oxford anyway.

As you now have one of the previous stock you were potentially seeing, there is now one less to see, as you naturally exclude yourself. So the probability of seeing cars must decrease.

(Unless you are particularly forgetful and dont recognise your own car when returning to it in carparks - in which case the probability should be exactly the same as before)

Did 271 miles on Saturday saw one ZT on the road and when I came out of the little chef a brg ZT-T was parked next to me (Club Flyer sorted)

On Sunday I saw 2 ZT's a 120 & a CDTI and a ZT-T CDTI all in Trophy Blue just like mine within 5 mins of each other in Preston.

I see three 75/zt's everyday, a chap up the road with a 75, next door with a zt and mine. Ah..... does mine count?

Thats it though, on my way to work there's nothing!
