Well at least it seems like it, I've been down here nearly a month now and have yet to see one single TVR, plenty of Porkers, the odd Dancing Donkey and that's it. So where is everyone?

They are all spending their money on football shirts, pies and beer.

I was out on saturday at Gateshead, getting a tonneau cover for my landcruiser but I was in the Cerb. Don't know how you missed me!

I've had my car more that 6 months now and have only passed 2 other TVRs in normal road use to flash at. (This doesn't include going to a club meet, HHC or crofts etc).

The Cerbie filling up on optimax at my local filling station doesn't count either since he was a bit of a miserable git when I pulled up behind him. Perhaps he was just jealous that my v8 sounded better than his Speed6!

Your right, don't see many Tivs round here - pop down the A68 to the weardale area and you may see me charging around there....

I live in the east side of Newcastle and travel to the west every day. Don't know how you could have missed me. Must be looking in the wrong place.

I have done 2300 miles in my new car since March 1st. All on the local Newcastle/Washington/North East roads.

Surprised you say that as I tend to see Chimaeras and Cerbs around every other day. A purple cerb passes my house most days. Don't know who it is though!

Anyway, if you see a red T350 it'll be me!

I was out in the Griff day before yesterday and saw a Red Chimaera near the city hall/john dobson street and a black griff out near Benton hypermarket. Look harder, we are around...
