Thread: Parking Next to Land Rovers ?

Seems to happen all over the world. I do it all the time and once back in my hometown there was a defender next to my series IIA whose owner left me a business card from a new spare parts dealer!!

Was at work a year or so ago..my D2 parked in its usual spot under the building. Come lunchtime, I go for walk down the shop, about 100 metres. Get to the car park of the supermarket, see my car just being driven away by an older chap...panic attack...reach for phone to call the cops...then notice the number plate is exactly the same, except for the last digit...which was a 6, instead of an 8. Exactly the same car...a Classic.., same gold colour, same wheels, same spare wheel cover...same tyres. What are the chances of seeing an identical car with an almost identical rego plate in the same place?

I keep an eye out for it now...if I ever see it again in the same car park, I will go get mine and park it next to it...and wait to see the look on the owners face when he comes to get it...lol...

Cheers,
