Was it a C6 Z06? I was in my red one and passed a black Z06 somewhere around Leeds on Friday (don't know where,I was a little lost biggrin ), it was the first time I've ever seen another C6 in the UK.
Is yours the C6 that went to the sunday meet at the Porsche garage in Leeds?

You've never seen another C6 in the UK? I've seen dozens - but I go to quite a few shows and attend the Leeds cruise during the summer months, there's this Z06 there sometimes (unless that's yours?)

It was indeed, did you go to it?

Sadly, I haven't. I see them all over Nurburgring when I go there, but that's it. There is a monthly American meet on near me I go to but the Corvettes that go there are mainly C3s with an odd C5.

When is Leeds cruise? I keep meaning to go along to it.

Love the thought of a c6 corvette, not sure i could deal with the LHD issues though but looks wise they’re ace!

Can’t say i’ve ever seen one in leeds though?

Seeing quite a few dodge challengers at the mo though! Saw a purple one possibly a hellcat on the back of a loader today with a reg plate hell yeh or similar.

Also saw a BMW m4 leaving leeds on the m1 monday morning, had a huge wing on and looked pretty ace, woukd that be the GTS?

Saw Ash in the orange McLaren on Whitehall road in the gridlocked traffic last night. Thankfully I was on my bike sailing past.

Not sure I'd agree on beauty for that one, certainly rare though. smile
A few nice bits around this afternoon:
Grey McLaren 720S and black Bentayga with very similar number plates on Gelderd Road.
Yellow TVR Tamora by Cooper Bridge roundabout.
Stunning grey back-dated Porsche 911 outside Robin Hood Watersports in White Lee.

Hello to the owner of the yellow TVR with a smiley on the back whom I just saw on bingley bypass. I pulled out in front of you a little aggressively in a silver Mk5 golf, I was trying to put a bit of space between myself and the mk4 golf that had been sat on my bumper fir the last 5 minutes.

Your car sounds nuts

So many middle eastern cars around Leeds this year. With some very targeted marketing by the university I should imagine we shall be seeing lots more over the forthcoming years too, although why they ship their cars like its a laptop is beyond me. I guess just because they can.
