Well I haven't spotted much lately but did see a Blue Continental GT and 300ZX driving by Calder Park in Wakefield this afternoon, and a brand new Porsche 991 GT3 :O

I need to move house. All I see are 307s, Jazzs and Scenics.

Where abouts in Wakefield are you based? I live in Stanley and often go through Outwood and Wakefield, cool cars tend to come just out of the blue!

Heh guys, can someone please clarify for me re this thread, now a new one has started.

Perhaps naively, I have been under the impression to be spotted, you must be bearing a PH sticker, isn't that the point, as 2013 appears to mostly be 137 pages of today I saw a Vauxhall Vectra?

Asked in all innocence.

The thread has two purposes. The first one is to mention and discuss any interesting car spots, the second is to mention and discuss and fellow ph'ers that you have spotted. It would be a rather short thread if we only ever posted about spotting fellow ph'ers with stickers. I'm sure there are a few members who haven't been spotted despite having a pistonheads smiley on their car(s).

My missus in a black diesel X-type with PH smiley was spotted more than me in dayglo Exige during 2013

Wine coloured 7-esque in Moortown Sainsburys tonight.

[roystinho]

Red f type in Rawdon at dinner time, just before that a 360 spider at Greengates

[Stelvio1]

Red Ferrari on the hard shoulder between J2 and J1 of the M18 this afternoon - or was it an MR2?

[roystinho]

Also at rawdon lights, and unfortunately I couldn't get a picture in time, a mk2 ford mondeo with the biggest rear wing I've ever seen. Looked like a dragster one bolted onto the bootlid. Also had some EVO 9 style aero fins on the roof.

[Ruskie]

Also forgot I saw a Ferrari 430 filling up at BP on hull road. As I came out set off and made my day with the noise.

[Jordan Clarkson]

Was there a meet earlier in Wakey or something? Nice Sprint Blue RS4 and 2 Mondeo ST Diesels all in fairly close proximity to each other around the retail park earlier. Silver E92 M3 at Newton Hill roundabout. And a Nissan Silvia S14 Zenki driving down Aberford in that nice Emerald Green colour, fully original too by the looks of it.

[GTRJacko]

At the Royal York Hotel was a White Porsche Cayenne TechArt Magnum, Union Terrace car park had an Orange F-Type S V8, and i saw quite a lot of foreign plated cars, including an i30 from Greece.

[balamory]

Awesome slammed dark blue M 330 diesel on a64

[Rotary Madness]

Evo 7 I think, spoiler-less on the A19 between Middlesbrough and Thirsk. Was pretty quick, I was on the new bike and he just sodded off.

[giblet]

A rather noisy C63 AMG tearing it past the junction near Dyneley Arms towards Bramhope, and a older XKR with an aftermarket exhaust performing a swift uphill overtake, again on the same junction this evening. Some lovely sounds. I need a V8!

[r1chie]

Couple of weeks ago saw an F-Type Coupe on the Headrow in Leeds City Centre. Was dirty and looked like it had done a few miles. Didn't think these were out until June time!

That's becuase she's a bonny Italian lass and you're an ugly baldy porridge.

First PHer spot of 2014 for me today.
Parked near PGD's great looking MX5 in Sheffield.

[CraigJ]

2 GTR's in Wakefield this afternoon. White one and a blue one both at the bottom of westgate near the church.
