Ghost XM Estate

Extraordinary, and slightly creepy coincidence. :shock:
As a student, I lived (1967-71) in a flat in an old farmhouse in Stage Lane, Lymm, Cheshire -
here:

Google Earth, location
53 22 57.91N, 2 26 47.48W

Stuff this into Google Earth, and you will see, approaching some new traffic lights - what looks like an XM Estate - right outside the brick-lined entrance to some stables/garages to the left of the tree clump.
I know GE cameras are odd things, especially when it comes to moving objects, but it almost looks as if there could be a second one following it.

Take a look, using Streetview.

You can even see the roof rails...

You're right though - just one. The second one, in one of the GE images, was an artefact of their camera's timelapse shots.
