The supermodel was last week spotted zipping around Piccadilly Circus in a sporty white convertible based on the classic MGB Roadster.
And while the 52-year-old party queen has cleaned up her act in recent years, so too has the British soft-top – as its reinterpretation is a smoke-free electric model called the RBW Roadster, made last year.
It is not clear whether she has bought the £120,000 car to add to her collection of classic vehicles, but she also posed behind the wheel of a RBW Roadster for an editorial photoshoot in last month's edition of EE72, the glossy magazine founded by former Vogue UK editor .
Moss is known for her love of vintage cars. Last year she was pictured behind the wheel of a 1968 Buick LeSabre convertible in , and in 2019, driving a canary yellow Mini Moke, which was originally designed in the 1960s as a lightweight military vehicle.
She has also driven a Mercedes 280 and a black London cab and owned a 1970s Rolls Royce Silver Shadow and a blue MG Midget which she drives around the countryside near her Cotswolds home.

But even Kate has been unable to escape the fate that everyone who owns a vintage car experiences at some point – in 2021, her MG broke down on an A-road near Burwood, forcing her to abandon it on a verge to be recovered.
She turned heads in the sporty white convertible in Central London last week, wearing sunglasses and chatting with a friend as she navigated the busy traffic with the top down.

Kate, pictured during Paris Fashion Week in March, also drove past the Royal Academy of Arts and the late Queen Elizabeth II's favourite shop, Fortnum & Mason
The car features a red leather interior, with the manufacturers boasting that it combines 'vintage aesthetics with contemporary electric vehicle technology'.
It was reviewed by Top Gear's James May last year, who said: 'If you want an MGB, this is the way to do it…it's a modern car.'
Moss will return to the spotlight next month with the release of movie Moss & Freud, about her relationship with the artist Lucian Freud, who painted her nude when she was 28 and he was 80. Ellie Bamber plays the model.
