Just seen loads of old American barges on the way to work. Two parked up outside a petrol station in Low Moor. Something going off?

Some great spots just now on way to Harrogate from Skipton.

Jet black Merc SLS 2 cars ahead of a blue 1970's Aston DBS at Blubberhouses. Then a black 996 GT2 ten seconds later followed 3 cars behind by a Merc 220S Fintail.

That would be me. Visiting my parents who have lived in the village for 20 odd years. Spotted a chameleon green Tamora on the way in to the village (never seen it before today), someone on the other side of the pond had a cerbera at one point, and the Barber my dad goes to in driff is a TVR officianado and previous owner, but this is the first time in 5 years either of my TVR's have been spotted in the village. Many Thanks Waity.

The police said I had to remove the pixels, was illegal or something! biggrin
I was meant to be picking someone up from Haxby and was 5 minutes late and a little bit lost! Co-op was a good place to check the map and get a drink.
Also saw a red Noble going through Haxby that day.

Yeah, they do seem to be having a crackdown on mahoosive pixels at the moment biggrin

The Noble is local to the village, in fact I saw it yesterday as well.

Bright blue Noble on the Harrogate / Knaresborough by-pass, on the roundabout near the St. James' Retail Park.had a very appropriate number plate!

Various nice cars at the Harewood Speed Hill Climb. Not including the competitors there was a yellow Lamborghini Gallardo, bright green Focus ST and a white Peugeot RCZ, which was parked up next to me.

The blue Cerb was probably my T350t as I used to live next to the pond!



I have a Viper Blue Tam now but I no longer live in the village. The Green Tam is there more weekends now its warmer again.

That barber used to cut my hair too (really small world) he had a lovely chim!

Saw a stunning TVR outside that hotel just after the dark arches in town but cannot for the life of me remember the name, I think it was a TVR Sagaris but I was distracted by the colour, Cascade Violet I believe absolutely jaw dropping
