spotted on university avenue Glasgow

Post by Aerodynamica » Fri Mar 08, 2013 8:41 am

Last night I spotted a dark Xm waiting to turn off university avenue I was in the Xm to and passed the waiting Xm with the traffic. It was dark but I think it was an early series 2, it was an M registration and I think the number had ' DG' or 'GD' in it so might even have been a Glasgow registered car. Anyway the Xm was turning up the street I intended to take but screwed up and had to turn further up, if I'd gone the right way it would've been an impromptu convoy.

Any way if it was anyone on here you were spotted!

Well, his XM certainly fits that description without a doubt..

All the clues lead to me.....dark XM, early series 2, M reg.....

but it wasn't me!! :o :lol:

I was out that day but not up there in the west end. Wonder who it could be?
I only know of one other XM that lives about half a mile away, a black N reg TCT Exclusive (which recently seems to have been usurped by a champagne-coloured C6 in front of the owner's house, the XM is now skulking further up towards the back of their driveway and looks not to have moved for at least a week, but I digress...)

Not yourself then!
Years ago when I was at the university I would see a black Xm onyx around that area - I'm sure it had a number plate with 'LUI' in it. It was around that area from around 2001 when I first saw it- around 2008 I saw it being loadedoonto a loader no doubt being sent to the crusher, shame though as it was my regular spot

I love that car! Standing out from the crowd to say the least.
It'd be even better with LUI in the license plate, meaning 'lazy', in my language :)

To me it seems quite small. They do look slightly forlorn sitting low like that. Poor thing!!! :lol:
