Every week day I drive the same route, my route takes me along the A5 (Watling street) I am only on that road for a short distance (Between Hinckley and Atherstone) It was about 17:30 and the traffic was quite heavy as you can guess. I was sitting stationary in a long line of cars, when I saw a Land Rover "Freelander" driving in the other direction. It was driving slowly because of the volume of traffic, so I had plenty of time to get a look at it. It was the five door model. the first thing that struck me as odd was the colour. It was a VERY matt black, there were no surfaces that were not black. the whole car was de-badged, the windows were very blacked out (all of the windows - not legal in the UK) the lights including indicators and reflectors were blacked out. The car had no number plates front or rear. even the wheels were a dark anthracite colour. th first thing that crossed my mind was that I was near MIRA. I often see cars being road tested from MIRA, they are often disguised with padding and covers. but they are always road legal, they always have number plates for example (sometimes some foreign ones) the car turned my head, but only the driver in front of me seemed to notice, he turned his head, but no other drivers appeared to be bothered. I now regret not asking the driver in front of me to pull over. but I only thought about that later.
