I've never seen a Maroon 75 tourer in or around Hartlepool but I used to see a really nice looking Firefrost 75 tourer near where I used to live. It permanently had a roof box on and I think it was an 05 (definitely a facelift as I was tempted to ask for it so could swap a few panels lol)...don't think the owner is a member on here though.

I don't know of any other Firefrosts in the town so they might have removed the roof box unless there is a new 75 owner around...

The possibility of 3 Firefrost tourers in Hartlepool

Not bad for one town considering I never see any other Firefrosts on my travels.

Great photo, unfortunately I've never had the chance yet of being in the same car park as another Firefrost, hopefully one day I get the chance to have a cheeky photo opportunity.

Photos of my car are very deceiving, it always looks nice in photos but up close and in the flesh it's a bit of a shambles and needs a lot of attention to the bumpers and general paintwork...I'm getting there with it though lol.
