Bit late, but saw this DB7 on Denby Dale Road, in Wakey on Xmas Eve morning. Had noticed it was up for sale in Autotrader just a few days before.

I saw that yesterday, being driven like a complete tool doing speed runs between lights on Vicar Lane, no front plate and no seat belt for the driver.

Of all of those, the front plate worried me the least given how busy the streets were.

It was doing the same today. Then found it parked up behind Dortmund Square.

Two on the A164 around lunchtime, both with roof down driving a blue Chimera and a yellow MX5 with cage (I think).

Some Jaguar C type look-a-like, but with two tapered aero bits (?) behind driver and passenger in Malton earlier today. Not sure what it was exactly, be nice to know, if anyone can help?

Cracking first spot of 2019 in Leeds this morning.
Back-dated 911 on an N-reg, looked very nice.

I’m familiar with the stretch of road as my go to mini hoon used to be down pool bank to Beckwithshaw and then from there to Fewston and across to Otley. Was he driving his own car or a clients? Easy to make a mistake in something that quick when pressing on sadly.

Details are a bit vague atm but it definitely wasnt his own car, it appears to be a sales car on a last check over before the customer picked it up later that day

Pool bank and through to beckwithshaw is my daily drive to work, there are definitely worse commutes to have!


Also spotted a black McLaren followed by a red 488 spider going through the airport tunnel yesterday
