Didn't manage to get a photo but just seen a bright orange 540/570S on Rainford Road on the way past the crem towards Windle Island in St. Helens. Anyone on here?

Not the first time I've seen it around these parts.

Every Renault Sport car in England on the road between Ambleside and Keswick in the lakes.

I was walking above and could hear you guys driving past for ages, and see all the liquid yellow cars hehe

Interesting assortment of cars at the Fox and Hounds in Sproston yesterday evening.

A Roll Royce Cullinan and Merc G63 both with reg plates ending GOE (Sure I have seen a Bugatti with similar plates, also a new Bentley Continental GT 9 edition and a Lamborghini Huracan performante in a reflective pink wrap. Not bad for a sunday evening at the local(ish).

They were both at Oulton Park for the day, along with a few other cars with similar plates. I believe one of the family competes in British GT. Definitely a nice lineup!

Spotted a light blue Triumph Herald convertible followed behind by another Triumph (possibly a Dolomite in green) cruising down the M6 near Wigan Preston direction on Sunday morning about 9am. About 15 mins later spotted a vintage type open top sports car (either a Morgan, an MG or maybe a kit car), red in colour heading through Garswood.

TVR Chim with PH sticker outside Chain Lane butcher's, St. Helen's.

Think this is one of the rare times I have seen another car with a PH sticker (apart from my own or friends).

Anyway, TVR sounded great!

I'll not 100% sure this is North West but I was in Castleton in the peaks today, and I saw quite a few nice cars and a gazillion bikes. Highlights we're a '65 (I think) red Mustang, a lotus 2-eleven and behind me then Infront when I pulled over to let them past - wife and the dog in the car ah I wasn't out to play hehe - three 7 replicas and a bike having some fun.

Found myself behind a yellow Kia Cee'd coming off the M60 in Ashton this afternoon, with a PH sticker in the back window. Anyone on here?

There seems to be a lack of spotting in the North West compared to other regions.

probably linked to the fact that much of the north west has been under tighter movement and enjoyment restrictions than other regions for some months now.

I saw F812 SUP (guess what!) on the M6 a couple of weeks ago heading North past Lancaster. What a beautiful thing, and what a sound.

Was driving so no pictures.

I ignore all that nonsense, I go where I like when I like. People who comply and abide by these rules are allowing more tighter restrictions to be imposed. Nothing to do with a virus.

Actually the spotting in the NW thread has been lacking for quite some time before this farce all kicked off.

at the risk of taking this thread way off topic, are you saying you think this is all a hoax

That's probably because of the limited audience - there are supercar spotted threads and classic spotted threads in the respective sections, which tend to get more regular use.
