Car was looking clean mate considering recent weather, and all the crap on the country roads there  :happy2:

 thought it was a Nurburg sticker on the back, but wrong shape ?

I think i spotted same car on the same road a few months ago

PS....my ED30 seems invisible.... :confused:not spotted yet....

Cheers! Although i'm constantly fighting a losing battle keeping it clean as i'm sure she aims for every bit of mud / horse sh*te / leaves she can find...  :grin:

Got 2 stickers on the back one either side of the edition 30 badge, 1 Ring and 1 A537 Cat n Fiddle, my 2 fave roads  :smiley:

You most likely did as its one of her fave short cuts if the Chester Road is backed up..

I'll get her to keep an eye out for yours and she can do a spotted ya back post  :signLOL:

Luckily they are still not active! They cocked up when installing the cameras and forgot about the shortcut that a lot of people take! If they were switched on in there current configuration and you took the shortcut (wildboarclough) which is not only shorter in distance but has a higher 60mph limit the cameras would think you had exceeded the 50mph limit on the full route  :grin:
They need to install 2 more camera sets to get the system to take the 2 various routes into account so are off for now, although there is a good chance the ones from the pub down into Buxton 'may' be on but have had the threshold raised  :wink:

When its all up and running i'll just play my new game up there, no more than 50mph but no less than 49mph, more challenging than it sounds!  :happy2:
