Yorkshire Spotted Thread

A handful from the weekend, it's a long time since I've seen one of these...



There was a Ford meet at the local Starbucks, mainly standard looking Foci and Mondeos but a lost NY taxi and a Venom themed Focus stood out.

Where that taxi is, there’s a load of American police cars too, can see it as you join the M621 at Gildersome.

Indeed, the taxi was parked in Starbucks but ACE across the road always seem to have a selection of Police cars outside, all the exciting stuff looks to be stored indoors, I keep meaning to pop down when it's open for a nosey around.

Purosangue this morning, Leeds bound on A61. 'PB' registration. First one I've seen - looked glorious but expected more noise (to be fair it was slowing for traffic lights so not giving it beans)

Huracan sterrato off road daft things on water lane about 1pm today. Still don’t get it.

Still fancy a Huracan at some point but don’t get the appeal in those whatsoever.

Lovely sounding lime green McLaren 600LT in Wetherby on Thursday.

Was behind an Ariel Atom on Water Lane in York in early this afternoon, it was tiny, really looked small from the end of my bonnet.

There was a mint one at the Motorist today. Didn’t catch the reg to know if it was the same car.

Talking of Porsche, I was behind some very, very old purple 911 yesterday on J27 roundabout (m62) but the reg came up as a 1997 911 with no tax and no MOT, which was odd.

That's annoying, I was going to go up there today but turned up late at the Motoburo meet in Brighouse when most of the visitor exotica had left instead

That said my MR2 is a mess so being near a mint one would be embarrassing. Looking at the Facebook posts The Motorist have shared it was a good turnout.

A few from Motoburo...













Loads more of the cars I missed on their page.

Liquid Yellow Clio 182 on the back of a car transporter on the M62 eastbound this afternoon. Not seen one of those in a very long time.

Red Ferrari 488 Pista in Monk Fryston today.
Light Green Aston DB12 in Garforth yesterday.

A Porsche 993 redone as an older 911 in gulf blue in Cleckheaton. Properly looked the part, great reg too YOU 53F

Lots of lovely 1950-1990 motors in Easingwold this afternoon. It was the finish of the York Motor Club North York Moors Classic Rally.
