AFAIK they still have the Silver Octavia's (old shape) both marked and unmarked. They also have a new shape Octavia vRS in Metallic blue and a Focus RS in black.
However, in the last few months i've seen some real unmarked oddballs with sirens & lights on the A19. One was a Vauxhall Zafira and the other was some sort of small 4x4 (Vitara sized). I have no idea if these were Plod or possibly Lifeboat / Fire Crew etc.

I believe they have a Black Focus...
Further, there is one black and one silver brand new Focus ST. I drive a lot for my job so I get to see most of them! Never seen anyone pulled by these guys, but I've seen them charging about with concealed blues. The only way I could tell them apart from a normal Focus ST is the little blue repeaters on the back either side of the numberplate.
Another Public Service announcement...
Anyone using the A19 between Thirsk and Middlesbrough should watch out for a Traffic car hiding in a Farm access road behind one of the Roadworks signs.
He was there today pointing his little laser gun at all & sundry. Sadly for him i was killing time and only doing 60

Just before the 50mph section. I was heading North and he was on my side of the road but no doubt they have a spot on the other side too.
The irony was, that while he was playing with his hair dryer, i'd passed a Turkish Trucker a couple of miles previous reversing back down a slip road...
I saw the Skoda Octavia in Middlesbrough on Linthorpe Road on 18th they didn't stay around when I got my phone out pointing at them.
Reg was NX16HXT, dark blue/black colour, could be metalic blue as mentioned earlier. Can't be 100% on the reg due to beer, my bad phone texting/typing skills and it being nearly 4am, but it won't be far off.
