Olympic Blue XM on trailer - M6 Northbound - Preston

Post by mouseflakes » Sat May 14, 2011 10:18 pm

Towed by a silver 4x4 of some sort - XM looked very smart! Around 1PM today, Saturday 14th May. Opposite carriageway, so I didn't get a look at the model, registration etc.

Anyone know anything about it?

Well your right Matthew,quite ironic that Tim saw the car on the trailer.
Hope we can make it to Wetherby at the weekend and catch up with forum members.
Regards Jacqui

I'd missed the fact that Steve was moving it on - I think its future is now assured with Jacqui and Mark. That's more than I could have done for it - this is a great outcome. :D

And what a surprise for me to spot it! :shock:
