G'day Guys!
Some of you already know I'm up here for Christmas and I thought I'd fill you in on my Spotted in the N.T. quest. I've spotted one Cougar that was the same colour as Timmeh's recently-departed Mondeo Verona. Spotted a brand new Focus Coupe-Cabriolet about 2 minutes from Darwin Airport the arvo I arrived. Spotted quite a few LT Focus Sedans and Hatchbacks that are mostly dark colours (very hard to see when you're out on the Stuart Highway) and I keep spotting heaps of Rice Burners (some N/A and some Turbo's) with what seems to be the trend up here where they've got so many stickers in Japanese you don't know where to start looking first! I don't know how the Turbo's go in this heat and humidity though. Anyway have a Good Christmas and New Year's Eve and all the best for 2008. Eddie.

Just to add to the "Spotted in the N.T." thingo. Yesterday in the Coles Carpark in Katherine we parked between a Orange XR5 Turbo and a Colorado Red LR Zetec. The LR had quite a bit of damage to the RH Lower Bar. Not a good look.
Also, spotted in Adelaide River a N.T. Tinnie being towed by a Black F350. The Tinnie was on a Tri-Axle Trailer and I guess it was about 25ft!
