B430 VYW White ur, minus rear spoiler,
Seen daily at school-run time, Holmewood / Heath, nr Chesterfield.

Jus been passed by same white ur on the A617 out of Chesterfield towards the M1, going hell for leather to stay ahead of a blue S4/RS4 saloon.
The only difference (and I put my window down when I saw them approaching rapidly from behind) was the sound - the ur had a stainless (Scorpion?) exhaust and the 5 cylinder was a delight; the S4/RS4 sounded like it had been gelded, not in keeping with a car capable if such performance.
The ur is local to me but I've not managed to speak yet, think its in the Clay Cross area if anyone knows it???

I've just spoken with the owner, very nice guy who has owned it since he was 21.
It's a little worn around the edges but a genuine old beast; he said that his intention is to bring it up to scratch.
Interestingly, his father has a 20V RR, which is sub 100k miles and only did 100 miles last year.

Did you remind him of the speed limits

rtz62 · 05-03-13, 05:47 PM

Hehehe; to be fair I've seen him a few times, he's passed me on the A617 dual carriageway doing 70 (yep, I drive like Victor Medrew-slow).
Nice thing is he's never bothered to paint the black rear spoiler in white, change the rear lights etc etc.

yeah, you only need the spoiler ABOVE 70mph ....

I told him about c-a, he said he had been in the QOC, but I pointed our the benefits of c-a, and the incredible knowledge base.
And the piss-taking.....!!!!
I may just ask him about the RR his dad has, I'm feeling the Ur itch again.
