McClaren 540C on the drag down to the White Rose.

Orange Huracan with large spoiler, York Ring Road this lunchtime. Looked mint.

[Wills2]

A lovely black evora going over the tops past the Chevin Lodge today at lunch time and a red QF following me behind down into Leeds from Cookridge.

I bet he wasn't out today!

Some big drifts up there. I had to turn around on my way home as the road would be fine then you would round a corner and be faced with a blocked road. This wind is vicious.

Hopton. Road/hill behind me covered in snow with lots of cars queuing to give it a try:

Couple of 911 convertibles in Boston Spa this morning - a 991 (I think) and more surprisingly a 993 too.

[Tycho1]

Taking a 993 out in this weather would result in sine die expulsion from the Illuminati!

[giveitfish]

I know! Pretty sure that’s what I saw. I was in my Elise so he wasn’t the only nutter out

[Tycho1]

I was hoping to get the 993 out early in March – plans now on hold. Got to go out early tomorrow, 200 yards of ice to get onto gritted roads, plus a bit more snow overnight, should be interesting.

Saw W1 LEY, now on a black 458 Spider, in Kippax.

[ellroy]

Saw a Maserati out and about on Thursday.

Could all most hear it rusting as it drove along.

Spotted a new Aston Martin Vantage on the A61 last Sunday on the way back from Leyburn. Looks a lot nicer in the flesh.

[Shnozz]

Talking Astons, J1 WPE passed me by Dirty Martini yesterday pm mid-afternoon and gave it the beans in his Vanquish up the loop road towards the Headrow. Seems to have tinted his windows on it.

Seen a few Qatari plated motors around Leeds recently including a F10 M5 and a rather noisy matte black Maserati Granturismo.

V15BEN saw the M5 the other week and I see it regularly parked on the pavement down the back of the road leading to Roxy Lanes/Nero off the Headrow. Assume its ME students living in the Q residence a bit further up that road.

There's an AMG G-Wagon floating around on ME plates too I see a few times, as well as a black Range Rover on ME plates that I was alongside passing the former sight of the Cockpit the other week.

[v15ben]

I've seen a few ME cars around Leeds city centre as well.
Saw a very loud Dodge Charger on Kuwaiti plates a while back too.
Saw 2 numpties racing on the Inner Ring Road in rush hour tonight; grey R8 V10 and blue RS6.
They both sounded nice, but they were going seriously quick!

Black New shape Dodge Charger (possibly Hellcat) near Driffield

Green Huracan near Selby, number plate ended HEN

[Shnozz]

Staying on the ME theme, the matte black Maserati was doing its standard lap around the headrow about 3pm yesterday and parked up outside the Starbucks next to George’s. Also a yellow Mustang on Kuwait plates parked outside my apartment block about 8pm when I got in.

Orange bentayga on park square and a good plate on a mini parked on St Paul’s street - 8 AN.

Saw that Bentayga yesterday. It's a bit of a bold colour choice!
I'm currently stuck by White Rose in the snow. Spotted lots of cars sliding or abandoned and not much else!

Aye, brave choice and noticed it was the diesel too. Was having physio a few doors along. Saw the Mini on the walk back into town, and a Conti GT parked opposite it too a few doors from Starbucks.
