Who can spot the most in one day?

Folllowing on from the light-hearted "colours" threads, as 206cc's are quite...dare I say it...common

on the road these days...I wondered who could spot the most in one day. It's a new take on the "My Herbie" game we used to play as kids whilst out for a car ride.

:yikes::yikes:

Awwww out here, the 206CC is a rare species!!! I saw TWO in one day on Wednesday of last week!!! A silver, and a moonstone........... and I haven't seen another one since!!!

On my way into town, I pass the shopping plaza and there is often a red one parked there because the owner works at the chemist but I haven't even seen THAT in ages

I think I lose already

So, last week:
Sunday = 0
Monday = 1 Moonstone
Tuesday = 0
Wednesday = 2

Thursday = 0
Friday = 0
Saturday = 0
Yesterday = 0
... and today has only just begun but I predict...... 0

Trouble is, I don't tend to go far at the weekend when the weather is bad...and it's really bad here at the minute! This game can run for a while though, you're still in the lead!

Ok no worries - i still counting everyday - i'll see if i can do better.

Obviously common over here

I wish they were common out here... I think they are alot more expensive, hence why there aren't as many??? Out here, they generally cost in the region of about 11,530 pounds! (at the current exchange rate) For instance, mine was advertised at 11,524 pounds but we got it for 10,377 pounds...

The cheapest I've ever seen one priced at was a 2001 model with about 200,000kms on it (120,000 miles?), manual - 7,206 pounds!

Wow...that is expensive! I wouldn't want to pay more than about £2500 for that one.

I agree - that's very expensive - over here we are looking at £4,000 to £5,000 so double than UK price

I saw this thread when started but didnt think I could play if I dont spot them whilst driving 206cc???

will get back to you....

No hard rules as this is for fun, but no, you don't have to be driving the 206cc for it to count.

I only see an odd one or two on a normal day but then I only drive a couple of miles to work. I need a good run out but the weather needs to buck its ideas up first!

Come and play Ollie

Saw 3 on the office car park today...one was mine! One of the other members of staff has a china blue 05 reg, and as I was driving away I noticed the drivers side wing mirror had been broken off...

...not sure if it had been done today or on a previous occasion but the wiring was hanging out. One of my old cars was scratched on the same car park a long time ago...it was a jealousy attack I'm certain...bit worried about parking there now...will have to investigate.
