I wondered what that was, I heard it in my office but all the blinds were down so couldn't see out.

Blue MK1 MX5 and some fake SUV thing in horsforth going rather quickly down low lane, MX5 pulled into the curry house before the roundabout

Was the MX5 driving like a tool too with stupid exhaust? Have seen one a few times recently on Broadgate Lane always driving like he stole it....

Yup, heading to work. Using it to commute for the first half of the week and then the ISF for the second half until the VR4 sells.

Nope, went for an eBay ad, usually sell my cars on there and it seems to work well.

Thought I recognised that big conifer tree in your pictures...I'll give a wave next time I'm emptying that postbox.

[GTRJacko]

German Registered test mule of sorts (black plastic cladding covered the car), appeared to be maybe the new BMW X2 or similar, driving down the A64 near Leeds this morning

Leeds really went to crap yesterday, amazing how a couple of accidents can bring an entire city to a halt. Still at least the bike superhighway was clear.

Fingers crossed it's a hassle free sale. Need it gone so I can refuel the ISF for a while

Slightly concerned at how easily you realised where the pictures were taken. Doesn't say much for my online anonymity!
