Spotted on M1 today
A nice German Sprint
I gave them a toot and a thumbs up
They got off at Milton Keynes south and headed towards Bedford
I wonder where they are going to????
The funny thing was I was playing Autobarn by Kraftwerk at the time on the stereo in the van!!

Yes, that was me. 
Sorry for not remembering you, we got quite a lot of toots while travelling through England. A LHD Sprint seems to be a rare event on british motorways ...
And matienzo is right, we were heading for the Triumphest at Santa Pod that weekend. And after that, the Le Mans Classic on the following weekend. All in all over 2.000 miles without problems.
I'm short of time this weekend. When I've sorted out the structure of this forum and found out where to introduce myself (and the car) I'm going to do that.

Welcome to the forum Horst. We have another German Sprint owner in the shape of Holger although he's been quiet of late. It is nearly 3 years since he last posted on here. His forum name is "HolgerS".
