I've just had about 40 Police and 30 Gendarmerie hoon past on their bikes - does that count?

Gendarme have puleed into the Village Hotel in Morley - probably had to knock off for coffee and a few Gauloises - whilst the plucky Brits crack on for some more tdf practice (or fish and chips at the Mermaid maybe!)

I was just about to go into Morley for a sandwich, I presume my chances of a brie baguette have been reduced significantly.

Oh you mean this lot? I came out of work to the village for a pint and yeh...



PH wouldn't let me upload the others as they are too big so i've put them here

Also found out they're staying here for the next 2 days for stage 1 and 2 of the tour.

I was there Friday night too, was quite an interesting sight.

The table next to us was full of Gendarmerie playing cards.

Followed off the M1 on to the A650 by a red Evora this evening. Such a contrast to all the grey boxes surrounding it on the road.

The fact I've been spotted makes me happier than it should haha

Are you quite dark skinned? I seem to remember the driver was but only caught a glimpse. I specifically looked for a sticker as I remembered someone saying they had a silver celica.

Erm well I’ve caught a bit of a tan haha I’m not exactly pasty but I wouldn’t call myself dark skinned

Facelift Audi R8 Coupe driving down Ings Road, plate MCP355. Seen the car a few times now, the facelift headlights look smart!

[N7GTX]

Late this afternoon approaching Horbury Bridge a yellow SS Chevelle with black stripe down the middle. A real V8 sound. Lovely.

[chriscoates]

All sorts of exotica on Ecclesall Road this lunchtime - saw an SLS Roadster, 458, Alpina B5, new Boxster S and Continental GTC. Also saw a California in the rush hour traffic on Glossop Road, roof down

Seen that loads of times, he runs/owns that pub IIRC.

Yep, that's my local.

David Ainsworth runs the Craven Arms (and also manages Broughton Hall Estate). His prog (with his son and the Bentley) was all about beer. He got pretty ttted on the show

Seemed a decent little pub. Got there before everyone came back from the A59 and the tour, there was only us in there. My boy was gobsmacked as he saw 'chitty chitty bang bang' outside

Much to my surprise this evening, a bloody Jaguar XJ220 in silver! On the A1 heading northbound.

Did you see if it had standard wheels or what reg plate was? Might be the one I've used a bit, though didn't have it then so wasn't me.

Was behind an orange S4 on the A1237 from the Wetherby roudabout to the Poppleton Business Park roundabout.

Could still have been you as I didn't get a good look. A yellow/orange PH sticker on the back RHS of the bumper?

Green TVR (Chimera?) in the Holme on Spalding Moor surgery car park this afternoon.
Typical isn't it, first nice car I've seen in the village and I'm moving out next week!

[gretsch drummer]

Red 205 1.9 GTI dropping/picking someone up at Leeds train station this afternoon.

Looked bloody immaculate.

[Paz565]

A lovely red Mercedes R129 SL in Leeds center tonight, spotted it twice actually. Once just outside but was too far for a proper look then later on right in the center. It had the proper AMG staggered wheels and when it came past had a nice deep burble.... Also the driver had a smashing shirt on

Good work sir, great car and shirt combo!

[giblet]

The Kahn design showroom has a few cars in now, the most notable being the red F12 with classic dodgy Kahn wheels.

Spotted a white 458 being hooned around Bradford yesterday

[hab1966]

Was behind a SLS AMG Roadster leaving Harrogate last night on the Skipton Road for a short while.

Black Escort Cosworth in garforth at 9.15am this morning.
