Filthy green Cayman R and white V8 Vantage S - both on South Parade in Leeds this afternoon.
Followed what must be an uber-rarity on the M1 Leeds-bound as well - a 2007 BMW 750i.
Also in same parking spot I saw a Ferrari F12 with '11 PB' a few weeks back was a new black Aston Vanquish with 'PB 11' - I'm just a bit jealous. smile

Quite a shock to have just seen a Red Lotus Evora in the last half hour, wasn't in the centre of Wakey or anything, just heading through Outwood towards the main Leeds Road, in a bit that never usually has anything of any interest.

Did see my 6th RS4 B8 in Wakey Monday, and a White TTRS. Monte Carlo Blue F10 M5 in the BMW dealership on Dewsbury Road.

He has had some great cars over the years! The current ones are something else though.

A black Ferrari FF at around 8:45am where Whitehall Road meets Geldard Road at the Lexus garage in Leeds - caused a bit of an atmosphere in the car as I interrupted a conversation to point it out to the uninterested wife.

The same one I saw on Monday, the styling is awesome. Looks so menacing! I'm guessing its local, hoping to see and hear more of it.

Spotted what seemed to be a grey E90 estate in Bradford with fake police lights on the roof. The dick driving fired the lights up on a side street, they were clearly aftermarket lights just bolted on to the roof. Nothing like the actual discreet lights on unmarket cars that you get in the grill and rear shelf.

See loads of Aston's in Leeds so don't normally comment, but this morning a YELLOW Aston Vantage passing through Harehills from Roundhay direction. That's got to be very rare in the UK.

A black Datsun 240Z (or maybe a 280Z, I didn't get a great look) driving out of Morley at around 9am this morning - looked lovely amongst the bland washing machines on wheels.

Hello chap wavey

Ha - that is what I was coming on here to post due to rarity factor! I saw the same car queuing to the Armley gyratory about 8.45am. The colour drew my attention.

Also saw this outside my office yesterday. Bold plate...

His 458 was often pulling into a small office car park opposite my office at the back of York Place. See it relatively often so he cannot have had the F12 for long.

Must be the day to spot unorthodox Aston owners. A maroon DB7 sporting a rather hideous bodykit has just passed me on Park Place.

I saw the F12 in November I think.
Not seen it since though.
