Hello Will & Mathew, yes, guilty as charged. Burghley House, that was a good turnout of XMs. Trust me to park next to the showbeater. That's a good picture Matt, showing the three very nicely coloured S1s. As it turns out, the colour of your friend's onyx, is onyx according to the showroom colour chart.
There seem to be a few S1s being released just recently. See that white 2.0i with FIG 9946 reg' sold for just £295 the other day, how cheap is that?
Cheers.

It was a complete coincidence that we ended up with the only three series one cars parked together, all on 'H' plates and two turned out to be prize winners!! Hope to see you at another rally next season Tim and I think the X will be the first. With regards, Matthew T.

I think I spotted this car again today under 2 miles from the first sighting. It's a 2.0i-turbo, L187 SKV. Minor damage to teh front and rear n/s corners, otherwise ok under the significant grime. It appears to be Grey, not Cobalt.

Looks like a matching pair to one of mine Will (see below) and I wonder who owns the car! Is it an si or sei? Regards, Matthew T.

It's a base model with alloys added.
I left a note with this forum address under the wiper, so we may find out the owner yet.

We should do that with all unknown XMs we see...

That looks to be the same colour as my SD Manual I have, which Im beginning to REALLY like the colour... ETF is the code.
Sadly though, the way things are going up here, and the recent "Hole" found, I dont think its gonna make X rally...
Unless some miracle happens!
