NP. Quick check online reveals two surprises: there are a lot of these for sale out there and this one would be among the lowest priced and lowest mileage examples. The real surprise?

At the stadium you could get away with it, and as you said, be spotted as a tourist, going into a pub is another matter...I wonder if there’s an equivalent in another sport. It doesn’t seem to matter much outside the UK, or maybe people care less. But I can’t see trying the same thing in say, Turkey. I imagine that…
