Just had a thought.
As this thread is much quieter these days, is it worth not starting a new thread each year and just renaming this one "Yorkshire Spotted Thread" and keeping it going indefinitely?
Thoughts?

Can we call it Yorkshire and the Humber Spotted 2019? Us poor feckers on the south bank are neither Yorkies nor Midlanders and get left out a bit. In fact, it'd be nice if the region was Yorks and Humber.

No. I’m ok with calling it Greater Yorkshire and annexing some land though if that helps?

I guess it makes sense to just keep one thread running.

White 570s on Kirkstall Road yesterday morning, it made the 12C up for sale at AMT look very very dated.

I saw a 12c recently and thought the self same thing.

Odd how something so new and modern looking has aged so quickly. Don’t think the same of the fezza 458 for example, which came out about the same time I think?

Not sure on that one for me. I think the unfussy 12C is getting better and better with age.

Red 458 speciale this afternoon on the ring road in Wortley near bmw. The sound was amazing. Possibly an aftermarket exhaust. I’ve heard one before but this was definitely louder

Thread name now updated.
Open to Humber, Greater Yorkshire and any others wanting to be in God's Own County.
I just thought 'Yorkshire Spotted Thread' sounded a bit catchier. hehe

Do you class yourself as North Lincs out there?

Yes, that's who gets my council tax but Yorkshire born and bred ... could be worse - Bassetlaw is only a couple of miles away spin

It’s odd out there as you’re only a couple of miles from where I was and I was South Yorks.

I saw a sky blue Bristol Blenheim in Wrose today, early afternoon. I've seen one just like it in Chapel Allerton loads of times before, which has featured in this thread a few times... I'm not sure if it was the same one though because I can't remember the plate from the Chapel A one.

Blue AC Cobra in Guiseley this afternoon near the Morrison’s. Surely it was a replica wasn’t it??? Or maybe not. Certainly getting a fair bit of attention

Red Honda NSX out in south Yorkshire near fox house this afternoon and a light blue Caterham today.

Was great to see an NSX out and about.

A day late - but anyone spotted a red 68 plate RR Cullinan around ?
On A64 heading east early in the morning and coming south from Pickering late in the day - guess a day trip to Whitby.
From the front you are hit by the chrome grill - but the size isnt as big as you might have expected. A lot nicer in reality than it appears in print. Suited the red colour.

Funny, I saw a dark one outside JCT Ferrari in Leeds a few weeks back, and it just looked like a London taxi with some chrome tat on the front.
