Had to Google the correct name for it, first name that came into my head was a Maloo

It wasn't this Maloo then?

TVR Tuscan at the petrol station in pannal a few minutes ago on a private plate, looked and sounded lovely

Blue Charger SRT8 parked up in Horsforth a lot recently

Keep seeing a VXR8 on Hemsworth bypass, has to be a PHer.

Also saw an Alpina B10 last night in Ackworth.

Nice looking Green Sunbeam in Sainsburys in Harrogate just around 10 to 2 this afternoon, and a White Vantage on personal plates at the same time.

I wish it was, then I'd have given it a right chase!

Was passed by a red Vauxhall SS Ute today on Kirkstall Rd heading away from Leeds, first one I've ever seen.
Had to Google the correct name for it, first name that came into my head was a Maloo but then learnt that's the Holden branded version.

Actually both the Ute and the Maloo are Holden/HSV brands. Vauxhall have imported a very small number of Maloo's into the UK and re-badged them as Vauxhall's. Quite a rare machine in these parts.

[RSteve]

Yeah it was certainly a rarity.
Speaking of which, two rare trucks in two days, saw a yellow Chevrolet SSR in Bramley yesterday evening, only time I've seen one of these is on the older Gran Turismo games...
Certainly a sight..

Red!

The ssr used to belong to a chap in Pudsey who also had a fair few other odd american cars!

Saw a lovely Tuscan this morning joining the A65 at horsforth roundabout.

[DMN]

Yesterday a white Toyota MR2 MK1 heading on the A166 east towards Garrowby, followed not far behind in Stamfordbridge by a gun-metalish Aston DB9 which was in turn followed by a white DB9 a little further down the road.

I've seen a red one there too a few times, although not for a few months.

Spotted in Rothwell. I think I like the wheels.

Ah the glamour of Morrisons car park

I was out in my original RHD, Radbourne Racing, 1967 595 Abarth on Friday around Sherburn. This year's MOT, passed first time. :-)

Pictured here next to a friends modern 500..

Spotted the little Fiat in Colton this morning.

Hello! Yup, came to the office in it today and came that way to avoid going on the motorway.

As with most businesses we have parking issues. If we all drove an original 595 we could park three times as many cars in the same spaces.

Got a new Denon Bluetooth Portable speaker yesterday so I can have music in any of the classics without messing about fitting stereos too. Works a treat.
