Black Mk1 spotted Bembridge I.O.W

Post by Dean » Sat Jan 17, 2015 1:34 pm

****KBL Mk 1 In black parked up in a layby by the house boats, Embankment road, Bembridge about 7am.
Didnt get a good look as i was in a rush and it was a bit dark but looked very nice with the 24v 5 spoke alloys. Not seen it before.

And the Xantia in that photo is my first V6, which Jim acquired, and I think he swapped it for the XM.
