Andy Mc Posted August 29, 2021 Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 It might have had gold badges 🤔 definitely saw "V6" stamped on it. i was struggling to keep up and more trying to read what was blazened on the back. "Southport funeral service's" in a gold oval. Stuck on the sides and bonnet too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Mc Posted August 29, 2021 Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 May have said "care" not service then. They've got the Honda in on their website pics 😄 https://southportfuneralcare.co.uk/ 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PTR200S Posted August 30, 2021 Author Moderators Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 Reg is K25 SFC, 2008, 3 litre That makes FOUR in the area now !

Pity they can't spell Shakespeare correctly, got it on there twice too,...... hope they can nail a lid on straight..... I will be out that way Wednesday will see if I can clock it, I will be in the Elysion too 🤣🤣🤣 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Laird_Scooby Posted August 30, 2021 Moderators Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 To be or not to be, Shakespere or Shakespeare, that is the question?! Both are deemed correct though Pete as Shakespe(a)re himself changed how he spelled his name quite often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact the company has premises on said road you would have thought they might get it right on their website !!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very valid point Pete! Depends which viewpoint you take, the most commonly accepted spelling the The Bards name is "Shakespeare" but if it's actually the name of the road in this case (i'd missed that bit) then i agree, it should be speeled correctly. There is a road in Bury St Edmunds called Bedingfield Way. Try finding it on Google Maps though! Google in their infinite wisdom have spelled it Bedingfeld Way. Spelling mistakes or more often these days, typos are increasingly common and even on things that have been proof-read, especially if it looks right at first glance are often missed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PTR200S Posted September 1, 2021 Author Moderators Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 Yep, it's there, large as van can be, parked on the pavement 🙄....confirmed as K25 SFC ,,,also got couple of other vehicles with similar reg plates, K23 and K24 SFC ,,,for the name of the company I guess. That's four of us, blimey, taking off big time 🤣🤣🤣 but well spaced out, at least two are several miles or more away from me !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Laird_Scooby Posted September 1, 2021 Moderators Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 I can see if they ever sell those plates, a franchisee of Kentucky Southern Fried Chicken may buy them too! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Mc Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 If anyone ever wants to spot an Elysions just briefly pass through Southport and surrounding area. There like flies round there 😁 The gold badged one was just heading out of the car park at the front as i was cutting through avoiding the road closure. Then a V6 badge adorned one making the most of the bypass past RAF Woodvale, something familiar about that one 😉 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly officer I was just doing 60mph ,.....towards Liverpool or from Liverpool?? Headed back to southport I was having trouble with some road captain dominating the outside lane !!!

Andy Mc Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Southport bound, was I and the wee boy on the path at the gates of Woodvale. He wanted to see the Hawk gate guardian and I needed to park up the vw and let it cool down after it sneezed oil out the front setting off a whole host of alarms 🙄 just a pressure switch by looks of it. Back in the Honda for a few days though, but could only find E10 nearby ☹ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PTR200S Posted October 5, 2021 Author Moderators Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 08 plate white Elysion near Much Hoole, Preston. I was hoofing in the Coupe so didn't initiate a wave !!!! Think it may be the original 08 plate from further up this thread,...if not, then there were five 🤣🤣🤣🤣 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PTR200S Posted October 8, 2021 Author Moderators Report Share Posted October 8, 2021 Must be getting common, mate spotted the black , gold badged , 2.4 and said it looked great in the sunshine..." isn't it about time you cleaned yours again ?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators PTR200S Posted December 19, 2021 Author Moderators Report Share Posted December 19, 2021 Looks like it gets used then !!! Out and about. 😁 I wonder about the number of 2.4 versions coming onto the market, very few 3.5 and only a handful of 3 litre... maybe its the fuel consumption worry but the 3 litre , at least with the VCM , is just as good on fuel as the 2.4 . Unless you hoof it !!!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PTR200S Posted July 2, 2022 Author Moderators Report Share Posted July 2, 2022 This morning I clocked both the two other Elysion in the area, the white 08 plate AND the black funeral parlour 3 litre ,,,,,nobody waved.... ☹ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PTR200S Posted August 10, 2022 Author Moderators Report Share Posted August 10, 2022 Whilst following a Toyota Estima import, 2001 plate, and contemplating its remarkable resemblance to a slightly smaller Elysion another Elysion headed into to the local town passed me off a roundabout exit! It was the black one, with gold badges I came across a couple of times last year and last seen in screwfix in December 2021 !!....when I was sans Elysion 😪. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PTR200S Posted September 30, 2022 Author Moderators Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 Having not seen anything for a while, this morning I clocked a 55 plate in white, not sure what designation it was as it was parked on the other side of the road in the centre of Southport... That makes five of us !!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Mc Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Spotted x2 today within 30 secs of each other. Thought one was Pete, but as they blatantly ignored me trying to pull out of Tarleton aldi I figured it wasn't 😁 It was black with gold badges on closer inspection. Followed by a white one coming up the other way as I turned towards Preston. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elly is currently off the road whilst I try and make time to carry on with the suspension bushes 🙃🙃🙃 Been to that new Aldi a few times, I have had to turn left to get out into the traffic and do a U turn to turn around at the end of the queue!!! Nobody will let you in .....but who in the council thought it was a good idea to build a supermarket with an entrance 50 yards off the traffic lights...onto a BUSY A road 🤬🤬🤬 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ike Posted June 13, 2023 Report Share Posted June 13, 2023 On 29th of May (quick update Ike, well done 🤦♂️) I had to drive through the glorious city of London and when leaving late at night I spotted a white Elysion parked right next to north circular. It was somewhere in the eastern part of the road, no precise location or plate as it was super late, and I was driving for like 14 hours at that time. I have almost broken my neck. It's the third Ely I saw in the wild ❤️ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PTR200S Posted July 15, 2023 Author Moderators Report Share Posted July 15, 2023 Pulled into my fave fuel station ( at the moment !! ) , glanced in the mirror to see another Elly !! 3 litre , 2008 reg job, black...never seen it before so look like another one locally. Registered in Preston so might be around there too... As I got out, the driver gave me the thumbs up through the window, got out and said hello ! Didn't get chance to have a chat as when I came out from paying he was already on the move. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
