I have one in Sakhir Orange



There are currently only 150 M6 Gran Coupes in the UK.

I'm sure I saw that on the M18 a couple of months ago - I slowed to pass it in my (god awful, dull, Metallic Red A3 sportback) - Lovely car.

Ran in to JCB123 today up at Normanby Park too

Stunning Ferrari 360 Spider driving through York the other day, with the roof down of course, looking fantastic. Few other gems in York like a C5 Corvette in a small carpark, some rare AMG Mercs including an E55 Estate and a CLK55 Coupe. Ferrari 308, 2013 Aston DB9
Volante in a creamy Pearlescent White colour, and a BMW 1 Series M Coupe with the plate 'BMW1M' one of the best number plates I've ever seen. All spotted while in York with GTRJacko.

I saw that black 1M on the A59 too.

Could easily have been me if it was early on a Monday morning going South/West or Tuesday evening going North/East.

Red F430 parked down Stockton Lane in York. Never seen one around here before. Fairly certain it didn't have standard wheels.

Spotted a RR phantom, a very fruity sounding mk2 focus ST and a black f430 all on the ring road between moorallerton sainsburys and weetwood roundabout.

Immaculate red Triumph TR4 and a noisy Clio V6 in Skipton.

Looks like a Dove TR4. Very rare; I think only about 35-40 were built by a specialist coachbuilder who's name I forget.

Only seen one before.

[snotrag]

Grey 996 C4S, black 964 and a grey 944 out for a run together near Whitby yesterday.

[Viperzs]

Just seen a V8 Vantage near Strensall. Judging by the number plate I think he's a bit handy at golf...

Hi Buzz, no wasn't my car, wish it was though my paintwork is a right mess!! There were some nice machines around indeed. The Dino I spotted was stickered up & looked amazing! Did you enjoy the racing?

Judging by the traffic on the A64, it seemed everyone was heading to Scarborough like i was. Many bikes overtook. Spotted an old Roller (Silver Cloud), outside Jinnah restaurant, 2x Green Focus RS and new shape Conti GTC on A64, and Nissan Skyline R33 and Bentley Turbo R in Scarborough.
