I was queueing in traffic going the opposite way on Kirkstall Road when you took the Mustang photo! I remember noticing it and the plate as well. Small world!

That Evora had a parking ticket last time I saw it too.
I guess the Montego is the new holy grail of this thread then? hehe
Saw an MG Maestro last year, but can't recall seing a Montego in years!
It's a very rare club the Montego L spotters association, I had to go to Essex to see one!

I think that 'stang is the same one I saw in the car park for Venus in Holbeck recently.

A few recent spots. Blue Cayman GT4 in Kirkstall, yellow 996 Turbo in Beeston and a very clean MK1 MX5 in White Rose a few days ago.

Not sure what Merc this is.
Googling images of SL65 AMG V12 BiTurbo and S65 V12 Biturbo AMG's doesn't bring up anything with the monstrous wheel arch vents at the front AND 4 doors. Plenty of coupe's like this, but no saloons.

That's not a standard Mercedes kit so maybe it's a Brabus? Certainly looks like an S class though and I know I wish I hadn't seen it...

Aston V12 Vantage In Rawdon this morning, and also Wednesday night in Guiseley at Wetherby Whaler roundabout (was the only person to not block the roundabout as I was trying to turn right out of Thorpe Lane, Thanks!) Such a lovely car and looks stunning in Silver!

306 Rallye is probably Mrs Chev. In fact if it had the windows down doing a tunnel run then it was definitely Mrs Chev.
