A white Overfinch RRS at Stanley Royd corner, coming out of Wakefield. M2ONB

According to the MOT list, it did 18k miles last year and 23k the year before! Nice to see one of these 5 litre V8 beasties working for a living rather than being posing machines.

Lol i'm very confident that this is my colleague, he will find it hilarious that's someone spotted him, especially since he was late I had a meeting with him at 9 and he was still on the motorway, slacker.

A couple of very random ones today.

An Escort Cosworth in full period rally livery on the M1 near Meadowhall.

Followed a mustard yellow Allegro from the M1 into Barnsley. Family of 4 cruising along. It looked and sounded awful, but appeared to be immaculate!

Was it on a set of minilite style wheels?

It looked to be on standard wheels I think.
Only saw the side view briefly though.

Looked and sounded awful as in an Allegro looked awful from the factory and probably sounded ropey, but the bodywork was immaculate on this one.

Yeah, sorry "Read the thread" sounds very abrupt, I was on my iPhone at the time.

I know a couple of guys up there and one of them told me it was 3 visitors meeting with LT.

All 3 own LaFerraris. I move in the wrong circles. ;-)
