J reg Mk1 vitty turbo
I parked behind a Mk1 Vitesse turbo on a J reg, saloon body type in nightfire red. nice example. have not seen this around my area before.
spotted in Prince charles hospital on thursday when i picked up my daughter after her op.
sorry no pics but there was a blonde young lady at the wheel and she was on the phone so i didnt want to interupt her converasion and taking pics would have looked a bit shady

Mk1 ? Don't you mean a Mk2 ? J Vitesse is either a non turbo 2.7 Mk1 or a 2.0 Mk2 turbo (unless it's a turbo'd Mk1 which is unusual to say the least).

Could have been a Tickford saloon in Nightfire perhaps? Mk1s were available in Nightfire but only very late ones Mk1Cs I think
All the best

I wonder if that's the same one I used to see parked on Shingrig Road in Nelson a wile back. I haven't seen it for a while now though, but there can't be that many round the area.
I was always driving passed so never got chance to take any photos either. Was a nice car though.

I've seen a couple of pics. Foxy (Steve?) had one. There was another on RT as well which I think was a different car.
Plus Steve off here has one AFAIK, along with his lad Dan. Forget his ID on here though.

I do remember seeing pics now I come to think of it, on a promenade somewhere so not as rare as I first thought.
I can't wait to see Crome's when he's finished his car. Will it be the only black one I think. Also, on McDroitwich there is always a lot of interest in old MGs etc when in metallic grey with red leather interior. I wondered what a Mk1 would look like.
Hmmm...

This was behind me Friday night as I drove past Nelson. I was in a rush so could have a proper look, but it seams it is still lurking around.
