Followed a blue 5oo from Bishop Auckland to Howden Le Wear this morning.

I flashed my lights and waved frantically like a loon - nothing, not even a smile!

And another, about an hour ago.

On Market Street in Hyde town centre was a Bi-colour special paint job 500. Top half was white and the bottom half a sort of electric sky-blue. Had some writing on it advertising something but traffic was too tight to get a good look at the side. Waved like mad at the woman driving it but didn't get a sausage back. 08 plater.

Spotted a red with white stripe in clacton, looked very glam against the old tat usually there.

Bossanova white with Italia flag side stripe driving through Toot Hill, Essex at about 17.45.

Saw a Yellow one driving through Temple Cloud today, flashed like crazy & got ne response, and saw an OLD model 500 in orange driving through Glastonbury also today, got a huge wave from them (through their open roof~) & a little toot of the horn.

Still not actually seen another 500 whilst driving although when I parked in Tesco's Wadebridge this morning I parked a few cars away from a bossa nova white lounge with italian side stripes & "L" plates.

Ah, I saw my first other 500 today, a white one drove the other way, I waved, but it was bad traffic so they were probably pretty focused on not driving into the car in front of them. Nice to see another one! It was on the A49 near Tilstone, (there was a big market on). If you saw a Punk Grey 500 with L plates, it was me!

Seeing more and more in and around Henley. Red 08 spotted in Hart Street on Saturday. See a white one on a regular basis, too. Never seem to be in my wifes 500 when I see another one ( always in my 150000 mile Merc 300TE), so have not been able to flash anyone yet!

I've seen 2 within 24 hours, which is a rarity for me. Yesterday lunchtime on the way to Harrogate, just before Pool Bank, I saw a white 500 with the Italian flag stripes. Looked like 4 people in the car, the driver was grinning as I waved.

Today, on the way to Ikea on the M62, there was a chazure 500 57 reg. I waved at the drive as I drove past him, but he just looked baffled.
