Was going down the M1 today and came up behind a recovery truck with a normal looking Supercharged on the back. It had a private plate beggining with two letters "AB".

Hope it was not a breakdown....

Not much of a suprise there.
Not a very good LR advert whatever the unfortunate case may be. Let's hope it's nothing too bad.
I saw a unwashed silver RRS being returned to my my dealer a few weeks ago on a recovery truck, they said the owner had filled it up with the wrong fuel

Oops - they took it away because he was too stupid to own it?

Sadly not, it had a used look about it, was dirty for a start, you could tell from the tyres and wheels it was not new.

I dont think its new either? Why would it have personal plate on already if it was on its way to a dealer for PDI etc , thats always done by the dealer

What I thought was that it might be on it's way to be delivered to a customer instead of it being driven there..................... but I suppose that they would sent it in a covered truck if they were doing that.
Her nextdoor bought a Nissan Micra from one of the online discount places like JamJar and that was delivered to her front door and her clapped out old Golf was taken away by covered deliverly truck too! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I had mine delivered to me on a low-loader as the supplying dealer was half way up the country. They didn't cover it and it poured with rain virtually all the way down, so I never got to see the showroom shine! You can deliver a Nissan Micra via Royal Mail, I believe - couple of first class stamps and bingo!
