I’m presuming that’s a show plate also?

Haven't seen one of these for a while says sierra xr4i and a cosworth badge! Scarborough McDonalds

Got that old car fuel smell as well which I love




Also no idea why the pic is on its side

Red vx220 in Roundhay earlier.

Nice to see another Sierra around! From the MOT history, that XR4i looks to be well looked after, no fails or advisories since the start of logging in 2006 and doing 3000 miles a year give or take. MOT'ed in Hull every time. DVLA says it is the original 2.8 engine, but I guess they could have put the Cosworth 2.9 in and just not updated the details.

[lee_fr200]

No idea it was an oldish chap though and it looked in pretty good condition

[richatnort]

None spotted related but watch your cars in Roundhay. Took my parents to deer park pub and had to park on the side street because the car park was packed and their XC60 has two massive key marks down the side. They're never coming back to leeds now (hurrah I think)

We saw a lovely black Huracan driving past Hole of Horcum today.

[VictoriaYorks]

Yellow Camaro on the M1 yesterday and then a lovely vintage Mustang in red just outside York. Sadly it was dark by then so I couldn't get a proper look.

V8 PHA heading toward South Elmsall today about 3:30ish

Alfa Giulia QV in the little industrial estate behind the shops at Waterloo in Huddersfield

I saw that tweet earlier, the gleeful comments from people who'll never afford one are depressing

[MOD500]

Sorry to see photos, hope driver ok. Saw v similar car in Leeds centre last Sunday

[TheBALDpuma]

I was being followed my an AM V8V (I think) but it had a v12 bonnet (I think) with the number plate that said "loon", just by Shipley Glen. Anyone from here?

I'm sure these kind of tweets get more attention because of the car, but looking in their tweet history people just seem to take glee in other people crashing whether it be an expensive car or some generic euro-hatch.
Still, I'm sure it is possible to drive one in the rain without crashing so something didn't quite go to plan whatever that may be and it may not even be the drivers fault (but I have no idea so I won't presume to say).
