Just thought I'd start a Yorkshire section as I've seen a couple of Eoses around. In fact two regularly park in the same Sheffield car park as mine.
I passed one on the snake pass last week as well, but didn't manage a wave/flash quick enough because it's such a rare sight to see another Eos out on the road.
Hi all anyway

I had a journey up to aberdeen and back last week, a total of 590 miles I went on my motorbike as it was nice weather and my eos is only a week old with 1000 mles on clock so thought I better give it a rest. In the whole journey I only saw one, it happenend to have the top down and silnilar spec to mine silver, red nappa, chicagos and flaps ! It is a good feeling knowing there are so few about isnt it !

See a couple locally in West Leeds, but they are still surprisingly rare. Always admired when folk find out what it is, though. Couldn't be more pleased with my silver one - all I had hoped it would be!

First one I've seen in the flesh for ages! It was driving out of Leeds in Harehills just near the Archway building (that used to be the Gaiety!). Such a rare sight in North East Leeds I had to make a double take!:)
Hi
is this pearly intense black? (whatever the English naming is...)? I've just ordered one and was wondering if it will not get dirty or scratched too quiclly...
thanks

In the UK it's called deep black and it is pearlescent. Dirty quickly-yes, scratch easily-No.
Now we seem to be having a stretch of nice weather here in the UK, the dirt issue is not so much of a problem. No doubt the weather will be terrible next week tho!!

We get over to Leeds quite regularly, friends in Bramley.
By the way, how about starting a 'spotted' thread. When you see an eos put it on the spotted thread, see if the owner is a contributor to the forum.
I like the ideas of the 'spotted' EOS :)

Just thought I'd add my name to the Yorkshire section!
Picked up my Eos 2 weeks ago only seen 1 other since and that was whilst in London!
Give me a wave if you see me in Wetherby or in and around Leeds - I'll be the one with a cheesy grin!:D

Well I think my car is quite noticable because of the numberplate, so if anyone sees me, give me a wave!!
The bizzies seem to keep noticing me anyway:(
