Welcome to 2012 Yorkshire PH folk!

Thought I'd kick this off with a blue Porsche 928 on the A64 near Tad.

The floor is yours - go forth and spot!

Happy new year all!

Burriana - no problem!


Saw plenty of Folk out in Whitby yesterday afternoon with the roof's off - wish I'd been in my car.

A couple of Mk3 MX-5s, a Silver Boxster. And also - best of all (but no softop!) a non-standard looking 993 Turbo, in Grey, rumbling along the cliff top. Proper beast it looked.

There's only a handful of cars more beautiful than an e type coupe. One of which would be an e type roadster!

That's lovely is that.

A White 911 (Supercarrera 3.2?) Cabriolet in Knaresborough this lunchtime.

Had the roof very very much up though despite it being lovely and fresh and sunny. Shameful! hehe

Great car though. Bit like this but the wide body which I think was a rare version of the SC in the late eighties???

I think greensleeves line of business allows him to be the only bloke on here who can claim they look good!

The XJ driver is definitely a PHer if it's the one driven by a slightly atypical guy. cannot for the life of me remember their name!

Shared a wave with them myself before!

OK who was this - Silver TVR Chimeara in Garforth, coming out the old Tesco carpark just a short while ago.

I let out loud an involuntarily 'whoop' when I saw it, and he gave it some beans up the road, sounded cloud9

P.S. The young Ladies from the Dance college who were walking over the road laughed. At you/me both I think!

Gosh Damn I want a TVR bad.

Grey Aston Vantage going *lots* on M1.

Then Grey Aston pulled by unmarked A6 Avant. Hope he was in a good mood.


Also - at planet x in Rotherham, a very beasty looking WRX type RA Impreza ( the one they make rally cars from). Pretty cool.

Oooh which garage? On the estate?

Where do you work, I'm at Optare at the bottom. I might duck in for a peek on my way home if it's nearby!

Top spot today - a Grey Aston Martin Vantage coming off the A1 at Lumby Garden Centre - absolutely stunning, Best Recent Aston IMO.

And earlier, an Aston DB7 somewhere near Thorpe Audlin.

Nice to see two Aston Martins particularly during Winter.

My best spot in ages - An Alfa Romeo SZ coupe, near Aberford. What a car! I went a bit mental and waved at it like a lunatic.

Lovely Blue coloured 911 in South Milford with foreign looking 911 plate - big bumpers, whaletail the lot, early 80's?

Was a kind of light Metallic Blue, very different to the flat Red/black/white norm.
