RRS is too common

I drove into London one day this week. Had to come out via M1 then around M25 to M4 and back to Oxfordshire. In all I saw over 20+ Sports (gave up counting), yet I only saw 3 Disco3s!!
I'm glad I don't have such a common car Laughing Matt

...and also remember that you probably don't notice as many D3's as you can easily confuse them for Transit Connects. Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award Sad

Now now Matt! I would agree there are loads in London - why? Because we can afford them unlike the impoverished North! Drive around Solihull - bet you won't see many there! Confused Wink 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

I agree they are getting more common. Nipped to the garden centre at Woburn Sands at lunchtime today. Saw a black and a silver in tandem being driven by young ladies. TDV6 - gone

That's strange, I went to pick up the sprog from nursery yesterday and saw "B1" on a car... much more expensive than the BM it was on.

It's a nice car the new S-class - lots of very cool toys (I like the graphical speedo dials), although they do say it's not necessarily the "best car in the world" now.

Glad to say in Sydney i have not seen that many, but X5's are as common as Fords in Dagenham, they are everywhere, with the ML coming a close 2nd.
