He musta noticed you, did he acknowledge you with a wave?! Don't recognise the car from any of the forums, nice to know there are still a few out there that we don't know about!

As most will know, Oldham has a large asian community. suffice to say, there is many "hidden" treasures on the glodwick estate, been quite suprised when attending jobs there.

Theres one bloke who just has old VW's, caddy pickups, golfs etc, yard is full of them, one or two also have calibra's / cavaliers, this may be one of them, not sure though.

He might not know what he's driving and just seeing it as an old banger that if it gets taken off him because of no tax he don't care, I've seen it before peeps have really nice cars that are worth a bit that don't even tax or insure them as they see them as worthless scrap value cars.
I hope not though as it would be a shame hopefully its just a mistake on the dvla computer as they are good at that.

It was in traffic i couldnt get upto him, i got most of the way up the side, didnt look a happy bunny plus i was in a bit of rush, i had to get somewhere but had to drop my timesheet in at the office.
When i did get close he turned left so i left him be.
