Got followed into the servo today, it was a bit freaky until I noticed the mirrors.
I think he might have had a body in the boot.

The question is, did you know which car was yours when you tried to jump back in afterwards

A similar thing happened to me many years ago. I parked in front of a news agent and coming back out engrossed in the headlines I got into the driver's seat of "my" car and was reading when I was interrupted by the owner asking WTF was I doing in his car?

Never had this happen. Every time I see another silver G6E it has "Silver Service" logos on the side.
Although a mate of mine was going back to his car in the staff car park, unlocked the doors and hopped in, only to find the key didn't work. A girl with the same hatchback was returning to her car at the same time, hopped in each other's cars. |

Driving near my old house I used to always see a black XLT Ranger that had the same grill and aftermarket black wheels mine has.
I also had random people wave to me as I drove past them in that area. I guess they thought I was their mate in the other Ranger. |

 Maybe to prevent your car being linked to your online identity, making targeted theft easier or something? Not sure.

My mate has a silver one and if there is a guy driving one and I spotto a beard then I'll wave. Turns out there's a lot of bearded dudes in silver Rangers. |

Plenty of Blueprint XRs around, but I've never seen another like mine.

I have the same doppelganger issue with my ba xr 6 I suppose the large amount made and also the fact that a lot of xr6 s were hire cars doesn't help.

I had a doppelganger of my current car except the drive line was different (1 auto 8 other manual 6) was cool to see them both in the back yard with both being uncommon factory cars
