Saw a nice range of stuff this morning between Bramley and Guiseley, highlights were:

Green Lotus Elise in Bramley
Blue new shape C63 at Horsforth Roundabout
my dream car a 997 Carrera S in Rawdon
Blue Maserati Levante at JCT roundabout which looked quite nice I must admit.

Saw tons of RS cars about Ilkley yesterday, absolute RS country, RS4, RS6's x 3 and an RS3 hatchback.

Really can't wait to see an RS3 Saloon I think it's the best looking RS ever.

Not seen anything overly interesting for ages it seems, but a tidy little lupo gti with a roof rack caught my eye in Calverley this evening

A Mercedes GTS edition 1 drove past my house the other day, but I don't find them as interesting as the old rarities/oddities you see about.

Not in Yorkshire but on my travels this week I saw a mint and very lovely V8 3500 Rover P6 (it was in stunning condition) an Austin Montego L (anyone else remember the hand brake turn TV advert?)and a Triumph Acclaim!

I've seen two or 3 Range Rovers SVR including one in Blue in Chapel Allerton the other day and it was doing a lot of pops and bangs which i was shocked that a range rover would do such a thing!

Seen a few in Leeds city centre this week. They make a filthy noise as standard.

Aston Martin DB4 passed on the A614 I think it was, around 11:30 yesterday, not the time and date on the picture.

Looks like someone has a nice DB11 as a new daily, seen it two mornings in a row on the Harrogate bypass between Wetherby and Leeds roundabouts

I keep seeing a grey one – 31 JA – around Leeds city centre, saw it on Whitehall Road last night actually.

I agree on the new stuff vs. rarities though. Off the top of my head this week I’ve seen 2 i8s, new GTR, several Range Rover SVRs, 991s, DB9, numerous RS6s, RS4 Cab and a noisy Bentley GT, but none of those catch my eye like the mint F-reg Fiesta I keep seeing on the ring road that seems to be a daily driver! Maybe we just become oblivious to the nice new stuff as they’re so common in Leeds.

I used to see that regularly as a kid around Leeds on various Bentleys/RRs. I always wondered if his business was making egg boxes. hehe
