The 2016 Yorkshire Spotted Thread

[Martin_Hx]

Saw an Mercedes A45 AMG thingy in Elland around 5:45 last night, had the proper spoiler on it too. Im sure i've seen it about before.

Also this morning saw a nice blue R8 sat in traffic heading towards Brighouse this morning around 8:15

Spotted a 1M on Leeds Road in wakefield last night about 10pm. A rare spot for sure, never seen one on the roads before.

There's a Valencia Orange one that lives near me, always a treat seeing it about.

Black/orange stripes Porsche 997 GT3 RS.

Near Roundhay on ring road, about an hour ago. Lovely car.

Great to see it being used

A red Porsche 924 reg ending 5555 just drove past me on my road in the Dales north of Skipton.

Good to see some other transaxle action in my manor.

And as I wrote this a white MGA absolutely leathered past, top man

Ferrari 488 Spider at about 6pm in Keighley today. Interestingly this one was yellow, but not the pale, washed-out Giallo Fly yellow that Ferraris usually are. This was a darker, richer yellow more like McLaren's 'volcano yellow'.

Red Grinnal Scorpion in Silsden this evening.

Silver Supra at Aldi on Batley Rd, Wakefield this afternoon.

I think it was a Grey Exige (big spoiler) heading to Thornbury this morning from Pudsey Roundabout. I was on the other side of the carriage way so didn't get a good look.

[Feirny]

Penistone Road in Sheffield just now.

I saw two on the A59, one morning, one night. (They were different colours, not the same car/bike/thing)

Black Exige **** AYH this morning on York ring road with a PH smilie under rear reg plate.

Shame you couldn't wait in the correct lane approaching Haxby Road roundabout instead of blasting up the wrong lane then cutting in infront of everyone else...

I live in Haxby and that r'bout does my head in. At rush hour, it seems that every 3 cars use the wrong lane on purpose.
It's no wonder there's been some bad crashes there recently

One of the favourite tricks is going all the way round to avoid the Q, normally at warp speed which causes all manner of issues

2015 plate C63 AMG at the sarnie shop on The Green, this morning in Ossett. Then a grey 2016 M4 on Healey Road in Ossett.
The C63 sounded awesome when started.

Google car in Otley this afternoon. Looked like the camera thingy was all covered up though.

[Viperzs]

Caught red handed. Usually go round but the guy next to me fell asleep I think; might have been cheeky and taken advantage of it.

[andburg]

Red tvr series car with the roof off at the stupid not quite roundabout by trinity walk about 4:30 looked lovely

[jarnold]

Porsche Cayman GT4 in yellow near Costco and then a Fiorano blue Ferrari 599 (no pics sadly) near the Land Rover garage in Leeds.

Rubbish. I was the car directly behind you and you couldn't wait to edge out and blast the line of traffic. Having a flash car doesn't give you the right to not have to wait. All that behaviour does means everyone else is delayed.

Now go stand in the naughty corner and think about what you done wrong!
