Plenty of interesting stuff this week:
- White XK150, blue Jensen CV8 and a cream 60s Mustang all on the A1M.
- Pale blue Elan S3 on Snake Pass.
- White 1980 Trans Am in Wortley.
- Yellow Huracan in Pudsey just now.

A couple of very random ones too:
- Blue Hong Kong Police tank parked in Reeth. Google says it was a drunken eBay purchase by a local car dealer!
- A Creme Egg car, literally a giant Creme Egg on wheels on the ring road in Wortley today!

Cheating slightly, but at Leeds Cruise last night I finally saw the Holy Grail....
.... I spotted a Montego, an MG Montego no less!

The turnout last night was better than I've ever seen and there were some amazing cars too.
This caught my eye almost as much as the Montego!

I was far too excited in the Montego considering all the other awesome kit around! It was mint as well.

- Silver 60s Charger with green stripes along the ring road in Wortley this morning.
- Maroon TVR V8S by Morley ASDA yesterday evening.

White Mazz GT driving down Hedon road towards Salt End around 6pm on the 8th, just came off the marfleet round about and gave it the beans, sounded beautiful.

Regularly see a black 911 heading towards city centre down hedon road around 5:40pm, usually between marfleet and dock roundabout. Never see it long enough to fully identify it, but makes me happy seeing it from time to time!
