Saw two today...

1. An MX5 with a PH sticker and two young guys in it. I spotted the stikcer through the back window on the roll cage, you turned up towards otley halls at the Adel traffic lights turning off the ring road. wavey

2. At morrisons petrol station, I've forgotton the name of the car but it was small and looked not dissinilar in profile to an mx3, but it had a glass roof and gullwing escque doors. Very cool looking think but I can't for the life of me remember what it was called! Any help?

Monday evening about 6.15pm coming out of New Lane in York onto York road a gorgeous white 911 R.

Since they only made 25 of these in 1967/68 I expect this was a back date, but was very good, LHD and had the "plastic" windows with vents in the rear quarters, roll cage and made a fantastic noise.

Would have loved to go talk to the driver but was picking up from beavers, nice one and not a car I have seen around before and I didn't recognise the driver.

Honda CRX del Sol?

Saw a nice Audi RS4 Avant 4.2 V8 today (Tuesday) at Strikes garden centre on the A63 between Garforth and Colton. Not the usual sort of thing you see at these places.

Saw a mint flat army green Willys Jeep behind me driving from Skipton up towards Embsay. Looked great, like I was being chased in a war film smile

A very clean white MKIV Supra heading out of Leeds past the White Rose towards Tingley. White wheels, Trial rear with gloss black diffuser, NuR Spec (?) exhaust and other mods.

I might have seen the same car at Halfords on Sunday too but I was too busy trying to avoid a human poo on the path to take in the details.

Rather shiny TVR wedge in blue near the Evening Post building on Wellington Street this afternoon. Possibly Trickie?

Thats my mates, Exhaust is HKS silent power.

I was in it sunday at Halfrauds, we were just popping to get some bulbs.

He's just waiting on a new clutch, bit of a weapon that thing.

Looks really nice, I saw it was a car imported by Jurgen which is always a good sign, then I heard the exhaust note I miss so much and giggled as it popped a little flame out. It's the complete opposite of my old subtle black one but a great highlight to some otherwise dull trips out, give your friend my regards smile

(I was the chav in the orange Focus with the radio switched off to enjoy some 2JZ instead)
