A grey F reg saloon in Haverfordwest - FJM 525F from memory - driven by Lyn Salter, with his wife Jen and son David on board. He stopped in Morrison's car park, so I couldn't resist following him into the car park, and stopping for a chat!

He's a Club member, but he didn't say which branch! Actually, I don't think I'm in a Branch, per se, either).

Did it have alloy wheels? If so, it's the same one I usually see driving up Bracondale and turning into King Street. Didn't see it today though.

I drove past to have a look at a minor today that my dad has spotted on his way to work every day this week, it's parked at the side of the road with a front wheel removed and propping it up!
DVLA says it has a 2 litre engine in it, the wheels and the colour certainly give it the modified look as does that rather odd front bumper, Fiesta?[frame]Image[/frame]

Also spotted on Saturday a working traveller in Totnes;[frame]Image[/frame][frame]Image[/frame]

On the way home from there today I saw a white, sign written pick-up looked like another working Minor.
