Grey Ferrari 250 (something) around Scarborough today or a car that looked like one, beautiful. Not the most accurate car description I accept but anyone else see it / know of the car??

Renault Twizzy at Mirfield train station the last few days.
Good choice for the summer we’ve had - a very brave choice if it’s used all year round! I can see the point as a station car though, at least compared to a scooter.

Here's another rare one. Possibly even rarer than the aforementioned Lamborghinis!



Mk 1 Sierra 1.6L estate. 148,000 miles. And it seems to have flown through it's MOT in June, with a mere 7 advisories. Including "GENERAL CONDITION OF CAR IS POOR WITH MANY AREAS AFFECTED BY CORROSION"
The 7th advisory was that "the car only just met the MOT criteria to pass"

I've never seen that before, seems to me that it basically means it's a failure, but the tester refused to fail it! hehe

Come on, who would want to be responsible for sending that to the scrapper wink

I did consider one myself but needed more room for a wife, step son and dog.

Today's spots, Nissan GTR eastbound on the M62 and a grey Ferrari California in Huddersfield.

Green TVR Tuscan passing ASDA in Wakefield - orange flashing light in the rear window.
Is that not just the indicators which are up in the rear window section on a Tuscan?
That'd make sense. Never knew or seen before.
If it was a light metallic green it will have been the parents of an ex girlfriend. A well sorted car, that one.

I've seen that around a couple of times, not many of them left.

A few recent bits from me:
- Riviera Blue 991 GT3 passed me on the M1 at Meadowhall yesterday; stunning colour.
- Red 991 Turbo a few minutes after, almost as nice.
- Black Porsche 968 Sport by the Merrion Centre last Monday morning.
- Rolls Royce towing a caravan on the M1 at Sheffield yesterday. hehe
