JDM BB1 metallic red - Lairg, Highlands

Up at Lairg in the Highlands, last place I expected to come across one of these. Unfortunately we were in the Alfa, so no 2-car pics.

Sorry - can't recall the owner's name, but he recently joined here and has the stickers to prove it. :)

Well, anyone up that way could do worse than pop into the Pier Café in Lairg (where this was parked up) and say hello to the chap in question who works there. :)

Jimmer ... damn shame about the old one. :(

I got a whack off a truck a few years ago that meant replacing the wing, wheel, suspension on that corner, headlamp and so on. Fortunately, the wagon's drivers step just missed my bumper, the bonnet wasn't bent, and the can-opener effect stopped short of the driver's door. Fixed it myself reasonably cheaply. :)

Always a pleasant surprise to see another 4g unexpectedly ... and even better when you get to talk to the owner and distract him from his work. :)

Wurlycorner, aye love these things to pieces absaloutly delighted i got another one :D

GJMHONDA2012, i dont doubt that for a second, weekend toy perhaps? ;)

Angus, yeah mega shame that peeps cant stay off their phones while driving its always somebody else thats left to pick up the pieces, thats a good effort on the repair :D unfortunately mine was beyond salvage with a twisted chassis, if i remember right the insurance quoted £12k worth of damage so obviously not economical repair wise. Yeah always great to meet another 4g owner, wasnt to bad of a distraction was more suprised someone knew what it was haha :lol:
