Took a wrong turn earlier and ended up in the back streets around Streatham Common. Was surprised to see a nice looking grey tin-top GTi just minding its own business on the side of the road :) Anybody's on here?

Think it may have been actually. Very tidy, anyway!

Smudger: was on my way to get a repair panel for the Corrado, sat-nav didn't warn me about a lane change in time and I had to loop around ;)

No disrespect intended, but you sure it was a GTI?

I have a very tidy nice looking grey tin-top GX which is near Streatham Common, on a back-road just minding its own business…if you also saw a bright orange T25 camper on the same road, then it's mine :)

I saw a T25…but was in a hurry so must have read the GX wrong :$ Sorry!

Would have been Polworth Road?
