The 2017 Yorkshire Spotted Thread

[carlove]

A lovely looking black F430 spider on holgate road a couple of cars in front. Just a shame the driver felt the need to go right up the arse of the learner in front, then drop back and accelerate up to them with a lot of noise. Prick.
Just to add learner wasn't going slow and was with the flow of traffic going 30.

Not sure but I do remember you from my Rovertech days. I think you either sold or bought an induction kit from my brother at some point too.

All sorts of stuff out in the nice weather today. Stand outs include a 458 Italia in Kirkstall, a DB9 hooning in West Park and a blue Fiat coupe turbo that I had a play with near Pool Bank this evening.

Oh and Paul's lovely Viper at the B&Q meet

I was parked a few bays in front of you two.

I was parked at the back of that Viper too (must be out of shot by millimetres!) - didn't realise so many PHers frequented it. Lovely 4C, great colour choice too. There's a white one locally but it just doesnt look as striking.

Silver Tuscan A64
Green/Ali Caterham A1 heading south about 5 minutes behind a
Red Mustang Coupe

Notton car show today. Highlight was the appearance of 2 grand old ladies of the Aston pedigree. A really nice pale blue DB6 and a green DBS Vantage.
Big turn out of TVRs so a couple of pics plus a nice Porsche.

Was also Harley gala, great showing here but I didn't take any pictures.

Some old lagondas and rollers, even a carver c1

....and not a Maestro in sight.

Also in York today after the prick in a Ferrari earlier. an Ariel Atom on Museum Street (not seen one before), a Ferrari 360 Spider in red on Holgate Road, (same place as the prick earlier) and a McLaren 12C on the A19 at Skelton. Loads of Bentleys about as well, must have been a show, maybe the one mentioned above.

Ferrari 458 spider in Shepley on Saturday evening.
Yellow Mustang at Cooper Bridge on Friday evening.

[DMN]

Followed a black Morgan Aero 8 down the A1079 to Dunnington yesterday, and then later saw a silver Tuscan in Fullford heading towards the A64.

Two spots on the A57 this morning. A fully Castrol liveried Celica GT4 which looked amazing and a spotless Rover 200 Turbo / Tomcat.

Were you in the Clio? I think I spotted you turning up

I watched you park up but wasn't sure if it was you so decided against coming over in a creepy forum nerd kind of way. Lovely car, don't see many about in such good condition.

Saw and heard a 458 Speciale thundering around near Sheffield university yesterday evening.

Saw one of these in Ilkley on Saturday

Splitting my time between these two at the moment -



Love them both and I'm equally happy driving either, much to the confusion of most people.

When did you get the 4C? Very nice, always intrigued by them...

Ah shame, no need at all to worry mate - always up for a chat about cars! Will have to chat at the next one when (hopefully) my car will be working properly.

[Vaud]

New NSX on the A65. Looks very, very nice in the flesh - the press photos don't do it justice.

Brief but very nice chat with the owner as well - thanks for indulging a random stranger if you are reading...

Yellow cerbera burbled past me in Norton earlier this afternoon.

Sierra xr4 in Hull last Monday and 2 Capris heading in that direction. Something going on with old Fords?

[KarlMac]

Had the red Tomcat in traffic with me again and saw the white huracan again, which would suggest both are being used as dailys, top work!

Might have been Pilchard8, sent him a text so he should be dropping in soon if so!
