Imagine this happened to you!

One Coldplay fan had the adventure of a lifetime at the weekend when she received a lift from Chris Martin - whose very gig she was on her way to.

Saundra Glenn, who suffers from arthritis, took to social media to express her gratitude for the singer who happened to be passing by as she was walking to the gig and decided to offer her a lift.

"That moment when Chris Martin @Coldplay saw me struggling to walk, had his car stop and gave me a lift," Saundra tweeted.

"What a decent bloke ❤️. We had a nice chat too" she added.

After her tweet went viral, Saundra was interviewed by the BBC who asked her about the experience.

She told the outlet she was walking to the box office when she took a break and rested near a fence. Then, she thought about turning around and watching the concert from home.

"But I thought I loved Coldplay and never thought I'd never get another chance to see them in my hometown," Saundra said.

That's when a black Mercedes approached her, and a woman inside asked her if she needed a ride.

"The door opens and I said, 'Oh that's Chris Martin, I can't get in with him,'" Glenn recalled. However, others in the vehicle reassured her, "'Yes you can.'"

Saundra said she hesitated at first but eventually sat into the car beside the man himself and she was given a spin all the way into the venue.

Saundra added that when they landed in the artist’s area, the Coldplay singer made sure she got looked after properly.

"He didn't leave me there, he said 'get the golf buggy and make sure Saundra reaches her destination,'" she explained.

She said she also gave Martin a good laugh when she told him, "I'm 64 Chris, I don't do festivals, I've come just to see you and now I've seen you and I can go home."

"It's the fact he's conscious of disability, he's such a kind person."

We knew Chris Martin was a decent guy!
