Spotted a classic tractor (on a trailer) outside Leeds (M62) yesterday evening.
It was the steam rally in Helmsley over the weekend.

I passed two traction engines (under steam) on the road out of Helmsley. Quite the traffic jam behind them too.

Excellent.

Made me think of a late Mr Fred Dibnah straight away.

Red AMG GT by Oakwood tower then oddly a grey AMG GT R came the other way from the lights.

The red one…. Jeez that lad needs to learn to parallel park, the left wheels were wrecked!

Saw a BMW XM for the first time going through York yesterday afternoon. When the last M3/4 came out I thought they looked alright in the flesh, and this has been quite a theme with the new BMWs for me, but the XM looks just as awful in the flesh as in the pictures, possibly even worse.

Noble M12 (AC03GTO) spotted in Ilkley yesterday.

Full marks as it was very damp and slippery!

Dark green C-Type Jaguar on the A1 near Wetherby today.
Presumably a replica, but still very cool.

I expect that would have been heading to the two day Yorkshire Elegance event at Grantley Hall near Ripon. Some fantastic motors there today, and we got better weather than yesterday.

Just walked past a tidy 911 on Leeman Road in York which still had a Le Mans decal on the door, and a Beausejours pass in the windscreen.

Huracan STO coming out of a petrol station on the way out of Hornsea.




Also, a Ferrari Purosangue has become local to Drub Village, I probably know who the owner is and he has some lovely cars.

Assuming it was that supercar drivers or owners club meeting I stumbled across by accident today at McLaren/Lambo Leeds but not sure. Went past more as a blast out but half interested in a Huracan and ran into a car meet out this morning. Various Maccas/Lambos/Porsche/Aston arriving around midday.
