I think I saw your car parked up last night in Cookridge

Do you park right on the corner??

Just saw a dark green/blue Cerbera on the A59 a couple of cars ahead of me. Sounded great.

Then saw a light blue Sapphire Cosworth in Skipton. Looked fantastic but had the telltale signs of a turbo right on the edge of stting itself. Smoking, smell of burned oil and missing very slightly. Hope it's ok.

That was me in the Tuscan smile think we gave the patrons of Squires a nice aural treat as we went under the railway bridge tongue out

Fezza looked and sounded mint cool would have stopped for a natter, but was on my way to Sherburn Aerodrome, the missus bought me a ride in the helicopter flight simulator

as a birthday present.

You must have thought I was a nutter at Garforth lights waggling my hand in a "rev it, rev it" signal.

Yours sounds like a bonfire crackling away. Superb. I turned the Fez down from Race to Sport so I could listen to the TVR. :-)

How was the sim?

The red Clio was me, it's a Clio Trophy. What were you in?

Didn't see the V6 though, love those, had one before and now after another.

Spotted what looked like a tidy 306 GTi6 on that journey at Kirkstall lights

Ha!!! No worries, where did you turn off, was hoping to jump past the car in front to have a better nosey but you'd vanished

Also saw a Black Mondeo ST estate in Rawdon today, I'm sure someone on here has one but can't remember who...

WWOOOOOOO!!!

What were you in? Where exactly was it? I live in Rawdon and seem to remember you're pretty close by.

Just remembered a few weeks ago I followed a black Ferrari 360 from near Chapel Allerton to Rawdon. Looked lovely!

Nice window shopping in Leeds tonight with the Veyron at Kahn Design and a GT3 RS 4.0 at JCT600.
Also parked opposite a stunning matte blue C63 AMG Coupe at Kirkstall Retail Park.
