i just saw a transporter full of rx8's

Sure i just saw a transporter full of Rx8's heading along the St Albans Road. (A414) just after the London Colney roundabout.
***Where the current road works are***


The cars were mostly silver/Tit Grey. (but had a couple of 323's in there as well)

London Colney roundabout, that brings back some memories I was the Resident Engineer for the scheme that put traffic signals on that one in 1998.

I know its about the same distance from my house as well.

I spoke to Milcars this morning they knew nothing about any cars and had no update so i suspect it was "passing through" as the M25 at junction 22 this morning was all gnarled up.

Morgan, aperently they'd just called at you hose to make a delivery, in the interests of customer service they were going to supply each of you and 5 friends with a car each to make up for the slight delay. sadly the offer was limited and so they are no on their way to another lucky customer (or not):D

I think Mazda UK are pissed off with all of the grief they are getting because of the forums grapevine and are now enjoying a bit of 'forum member baiting'!:D

I bet Oilman will return from holiday to find a polaroid picutre of a red RX8 parked on his driveway!!:p

Ive been driving around the country the last 2 days, and have been looking at every trailer on the motorway in case I spot any RX-8s. Cant beleive how Trailers many there are on the motorways, must have seen hundreds of them but no RX8s.

I wonder if these are the ones at Manchester last week, as I saw RX8s and MX5s but there were no 323s......

could well have been, didnt say the colour of the cabin as it was in "passing" that i noticed it. The cars at the back were the silver/Tit grey ones. There were 2 323's on it on the bottom. I only know that as the wifes got one wouldnt have spotted one otherwise.
