KevinBricknall Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Another Gold 1800 has been spotted in Milton Keynes. I know it's not a certain Mr Virco as its left hand drive. Unless he has done a left hand conversion to his!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winged_Wolf Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Left hand drive hey... you sure it's not silver and a very rare 2.0 at that?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANTAMAN Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Actually it was me who first mentioned this one seen locally, Kevin beat me to posting it here. A work colleage saw this car and thought on first sight it was me out in my Gold 1800 Hatch but as the Manta went past a junction (hence he couldn't get a good long look at it) he noticed it was lefthand drive. Not sure if it was an 1800 as i dont think he'd be able to tell the difference between one and a GTE. Still this does mean there is a left hooker Manta in our parts that 'we' haven't made contact with,could be someone over from mainland Europe visiting in Milton Keynes,be nice to have a chat with them.

Winged_Wolf Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Lol it's most likely me, did it have alloys and was it LOUD!!! ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANTAMAN Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 The colleage at work has seen this Manta again parked in a car park and took a photo of it and its not gold or a hatchback! He should know better identifing cars as he is a total anorak when it comes to Volkswagen Camper Vans,an example of which he is restoring. The Manta is an early (Y Plate) GTE Coupe in silver, i'm certain this is the same one we know of locally,the current owner inherited it off his father who bought the Manta in Germany and imported it to the UK when he moved here.
