Silver merc coupe, reg *MZP on the A1 sothbound with a nice PH smiley on the back
That's my other half's car. I used it for Le Mans earlier this year and stickered it up. I had to remove them all when I got back, as she wouldn't drive it until they were gone. No idea why!!I may have forgotten to remove the PH Smiley.
Edited to add: Just mentioned it to her and she muttered something about a red car which was whizzing towards her, so she waited for it to overtake before she pulled out, but it slowed down.... She quite liked the colour though.

I believe that's a Griffith 200? It's '74 plate is a bit late for one of those tho??
No idea on engine etc. - her indoors was in a hurry to do something dull so couldn't linger - it was a lovely, lovely thing tho

If it was around the 690/Scotswood turnoff then almost certainly me, poised to be courteous to a fellow (female) PH'er.Black Rolls Royce Bling Barge

Sunday lunch time, driving towards ponteland from the A1
you nearly wiped out a golf and a beemer at high speed trying to UNDER take and cut into a space to beat the traffic lights( all for 30 seconds )..... your money won't save you driving like that, unless it was being stolen ?

Was there anyone in the back? I know that car and see it often, it's nearly always driven by a chauffeur whose road manners are impeccable. Perhaps the owner had taken the keys instead?Reg: 1* JM

Black Cerbera on Newcastle Road - sounded lovely burbling along
Blue M5 (V10) near the dog track
First sighting of a Macan S on Boldon highstreet...looked nice...except its was gold!!!
...then my journey went down hill, blighted by utter cretins in vans 'owning' the overtaking lane even though they were doing nothing of the sort!

Matt black V8 Vantage in Tynemouth.
Making quite a noise, sounded ace!
The last sunny Sunday I spent in Tynemouth I saw 6 different Vantages (along with a Bentley Supersport in "Vauxhall faded reddy-pink") - AM have control of the place ;0Making quite a noise, sounded ace!
Someone also parks a matt-grey wrapped Audi (RS5 I think?) on Front Street most days - I can't say it's my cuppa but Harrismoney would love it I'm sure ;0
That all said - property prices there are so silly now that it's not surprising the cars have improved too ;0
