Hi everyone,

I've just driven back from Bromley, and was delighted to see a 08 G4 D3 up ahead, admittedly it was from a distance. I was driving south on the A21, coming up to the Green St. Green bypass (first rounabout from Farnborough).

I thought you where going to come around the roundabout passed me, but sadly you went straight on up the B2158 into Farnborough. So don't know whether you saw me... I was in Team SA

Didn't get the reg, but the D3 had either the German or Belgium flag on the rear wing, I'm sure it was German!! Nothing on the drivers door, no flag or G4 sticker. With a young lady at the wheel. Possibly the same one as Dave saw on the 26th July http://www.g4ownersclub.com/forum/Topic13121-48-1.aspx 

anyone of you?

Hi, sorry for the delay in replying. You spotted BT08 BTE - AKA 'Ugly Betty'. (The car, not the 'young' lady behind the wheel.)



Ugly Betty's been in the family for about four months and we're all still getting a kick from the response of fellow motorists and pedestrians.



And having an orange car (sorry, I mean tangier) with German decals is proving to be a great preventative against latent road rage and any thoughts of becoming a bank robber.



Sounds like we are fellow South East Londoners so I look forward to meeting you on the roads in Bromley, Lewisham or Bexley.

Hi Freddie,

at last the mystery of the Germany team colours D3 is revealed. Good to hear from you.

Glad to hear your having the same fun from all the responses from other drivers and passers by, we get odd notes stufed under the wipers ocasionally, all good though. I think having the flags adds that liitle extra interest, not that a huge orange land rover needs much more interest.

This is ours

We live over Kingston way, so more SW than SE London, I pop over to Bromley occasionally for work. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled next time. Your not alone for club memebers in the SE, Andy lives around Bexley and Mole Tun. Wells.

Look forward to seeing you again sometime soon.

Hey Freddie



Also spotted you in Orpington about a month ago.



I live in Blackheath so not too far from you. Are you coming to L2B? It starts at Crystal Palace also not too far!



Cheers

Sorry don't think it was Ugly Betty at the M1/A14 junction in July. Possibly another team vehicle with a similar country flag?



All the best,
