M60 - M62 Sliver D3 Convoy
Saw another sliver D3 GS I think with disco sticker . We managed to convoy down the motorway for a while. I have to say your car looked much cleaner than mine I afraid to say. My excuse however is the 4x4 day out at Tong last weekend (see my gallery) Although I got the £6 wash on the way out it was not that good.
Anyway. nice to see another disco3.co.uk driver on the road. I was coming back from doing a survey at Garth Prison in Preston. Not the sort of place I would like to stay at but interesting anyway.Discovery 3 Metropolis Zermat Silver

You had flown past me so I didnt see the hidden winch. I might have worked it out if I'd see the front. Anyway. not a bad evening for a drive across the pennines. Maybe we sould arrange a bigger convoy (day out etc). That would be quite a sight.
NB. I had CB in the car. Maybe we should have a official CB channel.Discovery 3 Metropolis Zermat Silver

Usually have mine on ch. 10
Spotted a black 55 plate 'S' model with full G4 kit heading Westbound earlier in the day, no sticker but wonder if it was anyone from here?

Come to think of it, I did see a RRS sat in the visitors car park. Black of course with some dodgy looking people in side. No doubt visiting a relative in side for drugs offences.Discovery 3 Metropolis Zermat Silver

That sounds like a good idea - why don't we designate a channel. Often have mine on - but there's no one there. Can I suggest channel 3 as a starter I was taught to be cautious.
