I've just seen a white Ford Puma in Morley, it's got me wanting to buy another one - I hate white cars normally but this just worked perfectly on the little thing.

I also saw a white van.

And a white dog.

Outside Thornes Jaguar on the grass verge in Wakey today, a white F type coupe. First time I've seen one. Now, where do I sign......

Then joining the M1 at junction 39, overtaken by a black Infiniti with 400 KON(?) on the plate.

Thanks, I'm pretty sure that would be me! Not far from work there. What were you in? I'll be annoyed with myself if I didn't notice something with the presence of an 840!

Apologies for the "pressing on", that roundabout eggs you on as sometimes if you make an effort you just get through the next lights *just* before they change...other times it makes you look a dick as they either stay green for ages or go red way before you get to them.

I was in the Mrs's Black MX5. Was right behind you at the lights and then again at Garforth roundabout.

Totally agree with you about the roundabout. I do it every day too. It was pressing on in a perfectly responsible manner.

Three 911's today.

Red late 70's early 80's 911 coming down the off ramp at jct 32 m62 this morning.

Then 2 mins later a silver 996 C4S convertable getting new wiper blades in Pontefract Halfords

Then a silver Carrera 996 in Royston.

Getting too common now. Need to sell mine and get some thing a bit more rare.

I pass one on the way to work in Ponte every day, could be the same one.
The wider C4S shape is certainly growing on me these days.
Also saw an olive green coloured Ferrari 612 on the M62 yesterday - looked horrific!

The 430 and the Gallardo that are often parked outside there (usually Tuesday nights) are owned by Ubbs' brother I believe. Not sure of his association with Elbow rooms but used to be there every week on a Tues night as I walked past.

He's goes to the salsa night somewhere down there on Tuesdays

And there was me thinking he was a cool fella.

Very cool "petrol head" his son who was 21 passed away a few years ago so I guess he wants to do different things now, not my cup of tea though!

I used to pass one on the way to work that went white overnight - had a respray from green to white.

Buy one, I'm on my third. They're great.

I was behind a red California with a black roof and a private reg ending with COL as it joined the M621 near Elland Road this morning.

Ghastly matte black Kahn Evoque RS250 on trade plates on the M62 this afternoon. £20k over regular list for a horrible looking bodykit and crappy centre exit exhausts. No accounting for taste I suppose.

And a white dog.

And a white Maestro parked opposite Morley's Victoria Rd school.

It didn't get me wanting one.

I forgot that one, I saw it the other day, looks to be in good condition. I didn't lust after it though

Yesterday night I spotted a grey GTR heading up Churwell Hill - every panel on the passenger side was bumped.

It would be my third too, just waiting for the chap who bought the silver one from us to get bored and sell it back for a fraction of the price

Rolls royce wraith in north rigton near the pub a few nights ago
Last night in kirkstall that guy with the blue mustang with white striped and smiley

[v15ben]

Blue Renault 5 GT Turbo and a Clio Williams.
Both around Castleford in the last couple of days.
Also saw a 14-plate black Maserati GT Stradale on the M62 tonight; very menacing thing!

Black 12c on a 12 plate on Leeds road near Huddersfield earlier just passing the Audi garage. Definite road presence.. there's also what looks like a red 635csi a bit further up on the side of the road looking forlorn, think it was on eBay (for reasonable money) for a short spell. Looks save-able anyway.

[FlauM]

Keep seeing a nice and loud black Ferrari in Wetherby. The plate is L3ON MW
