TR 5dr GTD in Gosforth at about 07:30. Looked tremendous in the flesh moving at slow speed with the xenons and alloys against the red.

Woohoo! Yes i'm pretty sure it'll have been me. After dropping the wife off at Balliol business park, Longbenton, I go up Hollywood Avenue to Gosforth Asda and then hang a right and take a left at the roundabout at the bottom to get to Fawdon.

Moving slowly due to the speed camera on the great north road near the jet garage.

Haha yeh it was in Fawdon i think, you took a left at the metro crossing. I've just started working in Gosforth so i don't really know the area.

It looked like a beast mind. You need to get some pics with the DRLs on at dusk for dramatic effect  :laugh:

I work just up the road after taking that left. That was definitely me then.
