No ! timed me over a set distance and worked out the speed that way didnt know they could do it that way, just had a picture of my car and a box above it with speed, time and distance in it and he did this from the slip road as i went by

I bet there was hardly anyone else on the road as well. Muppets.

Tried having me the other night for "Using a mobile phone whilst travelling in a moving vehicle" Fooking TFT screen on the phone lights up the whole inside of the car

I just said "Oh yeah, my missus was ringing me and not wanting to answer the phone whilst driving, I cancelled her call until I could find a layby to call her back from"

Gimp starts looking at everypart of the car, dying to have me for something. Guess what Bacon bap............. not a chance, everything is fine on the car

Sorry but that is at least 28.6Mph over the limit.. laws are there and if they are broken then you should expect to face the consequences.. not saying i agree with the law or that i dont drive that fast but its a bit silly to be bitching about it when we ALL know how fast we can legally drive, yet still choose to ignore it.
IMO if you are caught doing that much over the limit then you should expect to be done and not complain..

Yes it was mate and anything is for sale if price is right ????
The motorway was quite empty and i was just keeping up with the rest of the traffic but as i have a nice car it was me they picked on, i dont care that much about it cabrio turbo as i was going over the limit and thats that, but it is a bit sad that they cant be asked to catch real crime, we are just easy pray and easy money!!!! THAT IS WHAT PISSES ME AND MOST OFF !!

I would love one with looks of yours but slightly less power as insurance is bad enough on a standard one. what sort of money do you think would get me a good one?

we went out in 1 today claiming 330 & seemed well slow.

jim - ive been texting kris tonight & he think 1 bar on a big turbo should only see around 260. dunno how right he is but i take it from that standard boost will be less than 1 bar!
