Ice Blue S2 stuck in M8 tailback

Bigrichi or Rob perhaps? You were stuck in the tailback caused by this on the M8 today: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/edi ... 419429.stm

Looked like you were out the car taking the roof off. We were in the yellow S2 Elise heading westbound. Was going too fast to be able to tell exactly who it was, but sure it was Ice Blue. How long were you stuck in the tailback? Did they turn you round eventually. Looked like quite a police operation to sort out the traffic.

yep that will have been me.

i heard the horn but missed you...the girlfriend seen you's

4 hours sat there.....at least it was sunny.

about 3 o clock they started turning the back around and taking them back towards livingstone. bout fifty cars from me they stopped turning folk around and bout another half hour they eventualy opened up the central rexervation.

well done for opening the central reservation....it cleared in about ten minuted afterwards....just wish they did it 3 hours earlier

I didn't think it was - it was a "long tailed S2" I followed!
