Is the 02 a regular sight........

Myself, living in Scotland maybe see 2 02's a year on the roads over here. Lots in the south of England where I work but not many back home. I was just wondering are they a common sight on america's roads? Over here I think we refer to them as a practical classic however you guys seem to use them as your daily drivers! I wish I could have a 02 daily driver but think Scotlands weather would kill it!

I think most places it isn't a regular sight. I see one every few months where I live, but most of them don't hang out around my area in Kansas City, only 1 is actually within a couple of miles of me (other than mine) and then Keith's Stella is a few more miles from me. I've heard areas of California though it is quite regular to see them still.

quite a few here in Southern California. Seems like I run into one every couple of weeks. Just last weekend, I'm tooling south on the 57 in my '70 Granada, I look in my rear view, and there's an Inka roundie tii right behind me. Very cool.

I used to see a few zipping around here in New Orleans but since Hurricane Katrina I haven't seen a single one.
