Heres a good one!!

R Reg Blue 24v Ultima saloon (raven leather interior) spotted in an island port off the West coast of Scotland.
"Same car" (same reg, spec, colour) spotted the same day in a Scottish mainland port sporting a lovely Pumice Beige leather interior! 
Now i'm willing to bet the mainland one is 100% genuine and the island one saves a fortune on ferry tickets
I wonder if its a member and if you'll admit to it

The ferry company are probably none the wiser
He parks his car at the the terminal & goes on the ferry as a foot passenger, then picks his car up again at the other end ....
Stuart, did they both have tax discs ?

Sorry chaps but I think I'm being a bit thick here 
If he's going on the ferry on foot, why the cloned car?

Clearly the guy has 2 sets of interior, one for island use and one for mainland use and simply swaps them over...

Because he needs a car at the other end and the ferry ticket for a car is expensive

But I thought the Scottish being careful with their money was a myth??
