Spotted another white XM on the M6 Northbound at 17-52 just coming up to Carnforth. Not sure which model, but it was fitted with 'moon disc' type wheel trims. Anyone?

It was a fully laden and very dirty M-plate 2.1 TD SX hatch back.
It turned off the M6 at the bottom of the lakes!

I was on my second trip to Scotland in three days - this time from Cheshire, via Liverpool, and Keswick, the first from Gloucester to Perth, Stirling and Alloa, the second from the Wirral to Stirling.
It's done 1800 miles since Thursday (and is about a third of the way down its third tankful in five days) - still sporting the oily handprints from the recent engine bay work, badly needs a wash and a polish. I bet I was tramping past at 75-80 as well...
I do vaguely remember a truck flashing the lights.
Is being given a rest this week and the blue estate is on the commute to work.
