A light metallic green metro with a roof rack going through the tunnels near the Yorkshire Post building.

Also a biturbo g63 at the merc dealership, that can't be cheap.

Three MX5s along the Snake pass yesterday, one even had the roof down!

Saw a Ford Sierra camper van at Tesco Askham bar today, possibly the rarest thing I've seen this year.

A red Porsche 928 S4 with huge polished wheels at a hand car wash in Morley, this afternoon. Looked amazing!

Green Cayman R in front of me this morning near saxton. I was in my M3. Standing water was err, "entertaining" for both of us.

Toyota Celica GT cabriolet near J1 of the M621. Didn't know they made those.

Saw an F430 Scuderia on the A1 nearish Ferrybridge at about 2pm today. Near Doncaster on the A1 I saw what looked like a new Vanquish Volante but kind of looked like one of those new Ferrari F12 too, definitely a convertible.

Took a run out in the peaks earlier, couple of Caymens (1 silver and 1 white) on the A628 plus a few Scoobys.

Black Ferrari F430 Spider parked on the pavement across the road from Waitrose in Meanwood at lunchtime today, chappy driving obviously didn't fancy the car park.

May have seen a Civic Type R Mugen on the A1 near Blyth services yesterday, was a white one with a mahoosive spoiler.

Went for a thrash around the Dales yesterday and saw precisely nothing of note except one of those Merc CLS estate jobbies.

Nearly went to the Dales but decided to head to the peaks instead. I thought I'd see what footage I would get from my GoPro camera inside the engine bay so if anyone's interested in the results I uploaded a short clip at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59ACNOZJd7Y

I'll have a look at the video a bit later. Sounds intriguing.

Weather was pretty bleak in the Dales.

Pearl white Gallardo spyder outside Divinos in Adel on Friday night.

I keep spotting a current shape Clio Renaultsport in black, lowered with a ring sticker amongst others and a L plate for some reason in the West Park area. Usually being driven in a tttish manner too.

The Phantom definitely has that "I'm considerably richer than you and now you know it" Vibe.

They look well made but a vulgar display of wealth.
