Happy New Year folks.

First spot of the year. A45 AMG and a Aventador filling up at BP in Moortown a short while ago.

I've seen 2 different Morris Minors in the Kirkstall Bridge car park recently. Both very very clean.

In almost 5 years on PH with a PH Smiley on the rear, I have never been spotted

So as this will be the first time, I have spotted myself and it will also be the last



Write off

Ouch. Can you buy it back on the cheap and have it repaired?

Maserati Levante in Leeds city centre a few nights ago. Doesn't look as ghastly in the flesh.

Still waiting to spot a P1, how the hell was one in Armley?

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.

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.

Nice black F-Type with black wheels and tinted windows coming off the A58 onto Wellington Street this morning. Looked and sounded evil. Still tempted.

Do it. Get the R, the whine from the supercharger is ridiculous. Spotted a few out and about recently, filthy exhaust note.

[giblet]

Blue Huracan spyder and a very clean Nova both in Armley yesterday.

Dubiously driven liquid yellow Megane RS on Kirkstall Rd this morning.

Maaaybe Giblet driving up King Lane this evening. All I saw was a wide, white Evo that was very loud...Must be Giblet.

Is it really that loud? I swear my ISF was louder with the exhaust valve open. The X has a milltek (decat) back that most owners say is too quiet for an Evo.

I could hear it with my music on, window up and you were half way up the hill when I was at the bottom...Errrmmm, kinda loud yeah. A good kind of loud though.

I was accelerating up the hill but even then I'm surprised it sounded so loud. Will get a mate to drive it on the weekend whilst I listen.

Spotted an almost identical X today near Pudsey Owlcoates, also saw a yellow Cayman GT4.

Spotted that yellow Evora last Friday on the same street. I do enjoy lowering the tone of the area when I turn up for lunch. All those flash cars parked next to my chavmobile.

[giblet]

A pair of C7 RS6 and a GL63 AMG parked up outside Pasha on Cardigan Rd yesterday evening.

I get a new collection route on the other side of Leeds centre and who do I see again (Headrow roundabout)......Bloody Giblet.

Clearly I get around. If it was after 17:00 then I was probably dropping off a colleague on the way home from work.

Giblet were you on the m62 at around 12.30?

Yup, seems I'm being spotted everywhere.

Lovely dark blue E Type in Cas this morning, red 488 Spider with the roof down on Bradford Rd in Batley this afternoon. Looks like the sunshine is bringing all the tasty metal out.

Thought it was you I gave you a wave I was in the wife's battleship grey Octavia vrs estate

Saw the car go past me but didn't spot you waving. I was too busy admiring the colour, I quite like it.
