A matte black R34 GTR with a huge rear wing heading down Cardigan Rd in Leeds on Sunday afternoon, looked and sounded very purposeful.

Presumably the same one talked about on this thread over the last fortnight or so? Large APR wing. I walked past in several times over the weekend in its normal parking spot.

I saw the Orange evora on the RC Lotus plate in Bramhope on Saturday.

Also a black gallardo spyder along Boar Lane early hours Sunday morning as I was walking back from Call Lane about 2.30am.

The one with the big APR rear wing is the Black R35 GT-R on Italian number plates, not sure about the R34 however, that's quite a coincedence

Purple 991 turbo outside Foleys. In leeds just now. Brightened up the walk from work.

Definitely an R34 I saw, no idea if the wing was an APR example but it was of the same kind of style as some of their stuff - twin risers, large adjustable blade.


On a more recent note I've just seen 5 X5 police cars and a marked BMW saloon flanking 2 prison vans past the White Rose centre towards Leeds, are any high profile Wakefield prison residents in court this week?

My bad, wasn't reading it properly. Haven't seen the R34 and most in the area seem to be for sale at Motorhub.

A nice Black 57 reg Audi R8 driving past Wakefield college this evening and a Red TVR Vixen going by Wakefield bus station (seen a fair few times), and a Porsche 991 Carrera 4S with an aerokit parked up in town.

Yesterday morning a White Morgan (+8 I think, not too sure)

Presumably the one I posted about last weds? Bahrain plates. Driving sensibly this time or as when I saw him?!

Looks like it mate. Must have missed your post initially.

He was in traffic so didn't really have the option to do anything but sensible.

Is there somebody with a yellow MR2 on here? If so, I spotted you this afternoon.

Spotted a very lovely white BMW M4 with a personalised number plate starting with M4 on Canal Lane in Stanley/Lofthouse Wakefield on Saturday heading toward the Leeds Road and on Sunday heading the other way.

The exhaust sounded possibly uprated with some awesome pops and burbles.

Very nice looking car.

Spotted again 10 minutes ago on Canal Lane, the driver waved at me and my 20 month old boy who is infatuated with cars... meaning we spend a lot of time on pavements pointing at cars, much to the bemusement of their drivers!

I think that plate used to be on a Clio 172/182 in and around Hudds about 12yrs ago... his driving style doesn't appear to have changed much...


ETA - Saw that bonkers Polo earlier on in the week in Calverly...

Do you know the reg by any chance? Haven't seen a White M4 around Stanley but there has been an Orange one driving around Stanley and Outwood a couple of times. There are a few White M4's around Wakefield town centre.

[Potatoes]

Yeah, it was M4 followed by 3 letters but I didn't catch them... something like:
