White Aston DB11 and ferrari GT4C Lusso in Beverley on Thursday

[darkyoung1000]

Swapped places multiple times with a black GT86 with fruity exhaust pipes earlier this week (I was on a push bike giving the thumbs up) around the Gillygate, Bootham area of York.
The driver obligingly responded with some cheeky throttle blips!

Midnight Purple R34 GTR near Horsforth roundabout earlier this evening and then a old Fiat 500 Abarth at the Pudsey roundabout.

Usual plethora of Golf R, Audi S/RS and BMW M cars in Bradford. I swear Golf Rs are far too common these days and rarely driven sensibly

A group of 4 or 5 boxsters on their way out of Kettlewell towards Bucken on the B6160, always seems like a great place for a drive out but seeing them line astern with a camper van in front and no opportunity to get past, that road often makes for a frustrating one.

Same in Batley with the sensible driven cars

Caught a glimpse of a red Alfa 4C heading through Otley today, anyone from here?

Main street in Otley was closed by the police today, it looks like there was a fight or an attack last night and someone has been left seriously inured. Fingers crossed for a speedy and full recovery, and the culprits get what's coming to them!

Two Porsche 992s today. A black one on the M62 near Ikea about 12.45pm, then a white on near Manheim Auctions in Rothwell about 15 mins later.

Just spotted this out in the wild in alwoodley just now.

Yellow Ferrari 812 superfast at the traffic lights outside ford in Doncaster (think it’s wakefield road)

Very very nice

Could have been me in the 4C, I had a drive out round the reservoirs up to Blubberhouses and got stuck in the queue back in towards Otley

In the space of an hour I spotted another 4C (a white one) as well as a couple of Caterhams and a nice pale blue V6 Exige. Plenty classics out and about too.

Forgot a yellow Aventador SV in Huddersfield yesterday.

It would have been at around 11-11:30am, heading from where waitrose is, going through the traffic lights by the black horse hotel carrying on around out towards the river/hospital way out of Otley. so if that was you I was walking to Salami and Co. for coffee and breakfast pastries.

Not seen that one before locally.... I've just not been able to get mine out as I would normally for this time of the year...

Ah not me then, I wasn't out till this afternoon. That means three 4Cs around Otley in one day!

Orange McLaren 570S Spider in Fairburn this evening.

Sat in our favourite Italian restaurant in York yesterday teatime with a great window seat. Expected to see some interesting stuff in the hour we were there. Modern red Ferrari with roof down, one of those nice Nissan retro things and a very old 2CV were all I saw of interest among the countless SUVs and Euroboxes..

[orangeLP400]

Always think York is not the best city for interesting car spotting but please tell me what is your favourite Italian restaurant if I may ask?. Also retro Nissan...Figaro maybe.

[andburg]

Red integrale with spots on the front of the bonnet at Barugh green Barnsley on Sunday... very rare!

Hi, it's Totos, a small independent near the Barbican and just outside the City Walls. We've been going for years.
We also like Gusto and Lucias further into the centre.
Yes it was a Figaro, thanks!

[orangeLP400]

I live the other side of York but always nice to have a recommendation so will give it a try. Thanks.
