500 miles and only saw 4..

carguy143 · 29th June 2013, 16:15

Well if my trip yesterday is anything to go by, things aren't looking good for our cars. In my 500 mile trip I only spotted a total of three 75s and one ZT. I thought I would have seen a lot more.

I've had similar trips and then you pull into your local Waitrose and there's half a dozen in the car park

Lytham seem to be a place to have all our 75s and Zts. you'll see at least 5 on one street LOL

On the last part of my dog walk this morning I was tripping over the bloomin' things. I saw 4 all within sight of each other, and I remember thinking 'things aren't so bad, there's plenty of them still on the roads.'

I'm always on the roads around the North West and I see some on every trip generally. I actually think that there is still quite a lot of them about considering the age of the cars, and they are generally in good condition.

If you want to see a lot, head over to Knott-End, Fleetwood and the surrounding areas, there's absolutely loads!

I think people are only too keen on breaking,rather than fixing them now

unfortunately,forums like this also encourages the practice

Maybe it was an off day then as I'm only up the coast from there (Cockerham, near Glasson Dock). I just expected to see more whilst driving down the M6, M5 and M4. I drove back up along that fun stretch which is the A483 just south of Newtown.

Hi.
I drive anything between 200 & 1000 miles a week in my Berlingo van and there's never a day I don't see at least one 75 or ZT. My record so far in one day is 12 and that doesn't include those in car parks!
