    Yeah, I saw it

    I've been trying to keep away from looking on youtube and the likes purely because I know there's no way I can speed up the arrival of mine

          Yessir, sure do. Travel in from Teesside to Hairygate every day, work at Cardale Park, think I might have seen the same yellow one as you mate. Small world eh! I come through Sharow from the A19 and then down that Ripon way to Hairygate every morning around 7:30am!

          What spec is yours so I know if I get flashed?

                Unlucky! My wee baby is in this Saturday morning to get her chrome bits fitted but I'm also having a wee noise that's a bit irritating being looked at also, asides from that, the BobMobile is honky.

                If we get this big drive round sorted, I'm sure we'll probably meet a lot of the regulars on the forum here mate.

                    Well O.K
                    May be DS3's are as common a muck in Grantham
                    But... at least no one has the same colours as mine



                    YET....!

                          Did a 450 mile round trip yesterday from Cambridge to Leeds to South London & back to Cambridge - sadly not in the DS3, but in a Transit van, helping my son & girlfriend (neither of whom can drive) move house.

                          Spotted a grand total of 2 DS3's, both yellow, one southbound on the A1 at around 11.00 (yellow with black roof, the best combination imho, but then I would say that...), the other northbound on the M1 at around 19.00 (yellow with white roof- I'm afraid that combination just doesn't work for me).

                          So, the rare-as-hen's-teeth DS3's were heavily outnumbered by the common-as-muck Ferraris (5), Porsches (at least 8), TVRs (3) and sundry other exotica. Mini's, Mitos and 500's were, of course, two a penny.

                          Also saw a Belgian-registered A1. In the flesh it looks like a bastard-cross between the old-model Ibiza 3-door and a Citroen Pluriel, but with a nasty, waspish, in-your-face expression. Overpriced Polo with a bad attitude.

                          Saddest sight of the day? - a tie between the immaculate Austin A35 van, parked up on the A1 with its bonnet up, and the Vectra in flames on the hard shoulder of the M1, its bemused owner standing by waiting for the fire brigade.

                          Most uplifting sight of the day? (apart from the DS3s, and the sight of my front door at well past midnight) - a green & white 2CV bowling along the A1 in the outside lane, overtaking everything in sight - it was one of those stretches where there is a long downward gradient, and 2CV owners will tell you that the long gearing enables them to carry on picking up speed well beyond their normal 71 mph maximum, because the engine is unburstable. I frequently saw well over 80 mph in mine (on the continent, of course!!), and enjoyed startling other drivers as a yellow dustbin-on-wheels bore down on them, flat out, engine wailing like a banshee.

                          Happy days.

                              Take a wild guess!! I know it's not everyone's cuppa tea, but it makes me smile.

                                I just came back from a trip to Scotland from Leeds today and saw a total of 4 DS3's! Which is more than id seen in the 3 months up to this weekend. Saw a red one with a white roof on the A1 heading south and while up around the Ed/Glasgow/Troon area saw a yellow one with a white roof a blue one with a white roof, then just as i was leaving today saw a silver DSport with black wheels and a towbar just outside a BP garage! Iv yet to meet one on my side of the road though!
