rob wild Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Sounds like Mike to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steb9780 Posted December 5, 2006 Author Share Posted December 5, 2006 Looked nice, looked like it had some nice wheels with a polished lip etc. Other than that it looked pretty stock, but I only caught a glimpse of it through a load of parked cars.

aido Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 OT but I used to work on the BAE sites at Samlesbury, Prestwick and Brough, used to be great, can't remember the guys name but he was well sound and worked in Airbus - we worked on the migration to Newco a couple of years back!

Mike Coming back to work after sorting out my missus ( and not in the fashion you're thinking;) ), she'd just smashed her civic into the back of a van.

steb9780 Posted October 25, 2007 Author Share Posted October 25, 2007 I spotted this again tonight. Coming off-site at about 7:10pm approximately. I was coming from the back gate, this car was coming from the main gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ratm Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Saw a black one today on-site at BAE systems Samlesbury parked outside the tool room. Just wondering if it's anyone on here. I know the one you mean, it's been around a few years now, I remember seeing it 3-4 years ago when I was an apprentice working at Samlesbury site. Always looked a good example. Remembered having a look around it to try and figure out if it was NA or turbo! I'm at Warton now and don't see any MKIVs around. Think I've seen one on site the whole time I've been there!

ratm Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Ah well, I've seen a silver one parked up by the bank once at Warton but other than that. I'm in that area around 5 hanger so I don't get to see much of the rest of the site. You might see another around in the near future if I finally manage to find one I want! You might remember me from the Illuminations meet last year, had the red mkiii? Ben You're not looking hard enough then There's at least two of us.
