This morning at about 8.45 I saw a T3 driving from Pool towards Four Lanes just outside the Countryman pub. It was painted in camouflage with, I think, a white poptop. I was going in the opposite direction so only glimpsed it. It had the higher stance of a Syncro and a rear mounted spare tyre. I couldn't see if it had Syncro markings. Is this another Syncro in the area or just a lookalike

Sounds like it could be Andy `Fatsurfer` who lives in Newquay, but works Falmouth way. 16" syncro in cammo paint with white poptop with original wheels.

He hee, fame at last! Yes that would be me, commuting in a 23 year old syncro. Not the wisest of vehicles for the daily grind, but my diesel ford pop has been pretty much permanently off the road (not off road!). Work in Helston. its a 16" with aaz with afn injectors mtdi. Love/ hate !

Hi there. Give us a shout sometime if you are passing. We live just round the corner from where I spotted you.
Like you say - it may not be the best for commuting but its getting driven and leaving them parked up doesn't do them any good methinks.
