Saw this in Bingley today. Lovely looking thing. Didn't really know they existed, although I recognize the car, if that makes sense?

Wonder if he was delivering some artisan cheese from Ilkley via some moors backroad...

A red 928 in rush hour traffic, Pool Bank this morning.

Spent the rest of my journey thinking I’d like to go to work in a 928 .

Blue Ferrari Purosangue Lower Wortley Ring Road. First one I’ve seen on the road. Mmm not sure. Sounded well though

A nice Aventador at Costco in Leeds tonight.

[giblet]

Saw the same Aventador driving through West Park and Headingley yesterday morning

At the "Big Motoring World" car supermarket (formerly Available Car) in Leeds, presumably it belongs to one of the owners.

Not as nice to browse there now, you can't just wander in and say hello, all the cars are locked, parked really close you can't look around them and you have to scan a QR code on the windscreen to get the price and spec.

Almost snap. Saw a DBX in Crimson pootling up Burley Road this afternoon. Lovely colour

[thetapeworm]

Lots of exotica at The Motorist today but obviously this stood out...

[Killer2005]

Spotted my first GR86 in the wild yesterday near Huddersfield Morrisons.

A pair of TVRs (Tuscan (?) at the rear) sounding splendid in a run out through the Howardian Hills (Nunnington) this afternoon.

[darkyoung1000]

Then followed a Black Mk2 MR2 with a private plate (C2 ***) back through York on the way home
Clearly a nice day for a run out!

10 Porsche causing a tailback in Hellifield today as 5 decided to stop to let the other 5 catch up but didn't choose a great spot to do it.

[thetapeworm]

A few from The Motorist on Sunday...




















The engine in the above...










And one at Ferrybridge...

I was chatting to the owner for a bit and he was saying he kept them on because it was such a naff 90s touch and seemed a shame not to celebrate that odd bit of history, I remember there being actual twin headlamp conversions for a lot of cars (like the Orion has) but this was definitely a much cheaper way of reducing how effective your headlamps are
