N323 Petrol Blue at Tewkesbury caravan club site - My wife spotted the car when it went past our caravan for the second time looking for a decent spot to park - I went over to the chap later on for a chat.
He is from South Wales, had the car since 1998, [must have paid a bit for it then] no has 130,000 on the clock - No repairs to the engine or gearbox but has had a new radiator, Had the chassis repaired last year.
Condition is very good no marks on the paintwork, but someone cracked his rear bumper in a car park.

Hi, did the chap say what part of South Wales he was from? The reason for asking is that I've not seen another Scorpio on the road (other than mine) since around 2010. I was starting to think that I was all alone in Wales!

A few weeks ago I had to go see my father in Lancaster hospital and was stuck on the car park known as the m6 for what seemed like hours. I was hoping that i'd see at least one on my travels. Alas no! I even hoped that someone might have seen me and write it on the site, but again, no.  Anyway it's nice to know that I passed within a few miles of the Scorp in Abergavenny (A449) and almost within waving distance of another Scorp (Tenfut) on the way to Lancaster.

The missus says that she doesn't want me to find out where any of you are as I'd probably want to make too many diversions to look at each and every car the next time we go up North

I just looked at my last post in the cold light of day. Maybe I could have worded it a little better. I would just like to see the differences between my car and others. I promise I'm not a stalker. Honest !!!!!!!! Besides, If I were to make any detours my next stop would be the divorce court.

The missus said she'd let me keep it because she couldn't afford to run it. Ah well every cloud has a silver lining.
