Mustangs seem to be getting pretty common these days, I saw a rather nice looking one (grey with white stripes) at the Kenton Bar roundabout, heading towards Ponteland on Wednesday.

I see a grey Mustang with black alloys and black stripes quite often around Middlesbrough. Always funny seeing it parked up, barely fitting in one bay. I never realised how huge they are until I saw it close up.

Also saw a grey Audi R8 on Marton Road a couple of days ago.

I also regularly see a grey R35 GT-R (was mentioned near beginning of thread); must belong to a consultant or something at James Cook Hospital. I work there and I see it all the time. Occasionally see a green-blue pearlescent Sagaris and a dark grey V8 Vantage there as well.

Orange Ford Escort MkI possibly a Mexico as the arches were rather large verrrrrry nice.

Could possibly be this one that was at Hartlepool classic car meet last weekend. Turbo cosworth engine in it!

I guess that's just something you live with on a big car! I've always parked 'near the back'. It's all but essential with my A8, which will overhang a normal Tesco parking bay at the back with little room for door opening on the side (I can get out fine, I wouldn't trust a numpty in a Honda Jazz to exercise such care next to me). So I can relate to the Mustang and it's abilities to fill a parking space!

Nope, afraid it wasn't that Escort this one didn't have a stripe and had Mexico arches.

BMW 1M, Tynemouth, this afternoon, on the high street.

Atom (I think) on a trailer heading toward Whitley Bay this afternoon.

Saw a silver Honda Accord Type-R on Marton Road Middlesbrough, heading towards Belle Vue. Rear bumper had a dent in it but not very often I even see ATRs anymore.

Ferrari outside Longbenton Asda this evening, F reg i think, no idea what model though.

Saw the arse of an orange tvr disappearing around fawdon roundabout joining the a1 southbound just as I was leaving it this morning at about 7:40. Tried to get closer for a look but rush hour zombies got in the way

Passing Northumbrian Leather yesterday. There was a TVR in the entrance being worked on and as I passed a dark green S2 or S3 pulled up outside. Two TVRs in one go! Unfortunately I wasn't in mine.

About half two-ish this afternoon, heading South on the A-19. As we approached the Teesside Park area.........

A lovely looking Griff. Red with a red hood (folded down). Looked to be extremely clean and in great condition.

I suspect it needs some de-catting though....
