E89? There’s a separate E89 spotted thread, how dare you disgrace this thread!! :poke: :rofl:
:rofl: Tbh I've seen so few E85/86s I had to out something...
Think with so many E89's the chances of a forum owner are incredibly small. Same could be said of E85/E86... but more percentage chances of these older ones being owned by (us) enthusiast IMO! I've stopped flashing / waving them, it's only if I see one that's been modded I'd consider a flash or posting up on the spotted section!

Saw a black e86 parked next to a silver e89 at Shelsley Walsh hillclimb on Saturday afternoon, with my e85 completing the holy triumvirate!

I'm more talking the likes of a M bumper on a standard e85/e86, facelift or de-gingered lights, carbon mirror covers, etc. Something similarly subtle and yet still stylish. Basically something that looks like it's owned by an enthusiast. Could just be that it's clean (washed) and therefore well looked after! I've never come across a Zed that I'd class as driven by an "oik" !
