Few hundred Rolls-Royce at Harewood and I don't know which were special, but this caught my eye in the car park...

Also saw this monster parked just round the corner, matt black with a very loud Akrapovic exhaust. thumbup


Thought I recognised that Fiesta and Bentley photo, didn't realise you were on Northern Retro as well.

Ha - yeah, saw that RS6 as I came through town about 10:30 in the car. Dropped my car back at the apartment and walked back along St Pauls to my office.

BMW 850CSi in BIngley this morning. OK, I'm acquainted with the owner, so not a "spot" as such, but it was truly awesome to see it out there juxtaposed with the bloated, gormless-looking, overly-tall, over-illuminated and over-styled dross that seems to be 95% of modern cars.

I refuse to believe that an Audi wrapped in satin black with red detailing is driven in anything but a courteous and respectful manner. It's obviously such a tasteful car.

If the reg number is P29 AML it is not listed on the DVLA website....Perhaps trade plates?
