Just went out to wetherby today for a look at a car sales garage all going well, pulls into a empty ind estate & takes a wrong turning so find myself at a dead end with a large parking space area, so plods on in second gear gives iti abit of right hand lock & also a hefty helping of accelerator and hey presto a nice large controlled donut & drift back out of the dead end.
NE way found garage nowt there special so heads back home out of Wethereby centre.
Going on towards a place called Collingham and whats heading towards me with lights & siren going, yep PC Brownie Points, so pulls over and he passes me, quick glance into rearview mirror and notice his brake lights and indicator are on so buckles up and plods on at a steady pace. Next im surrounded one infront and PC Brownie behind lovely. So finds a spot to pull over, then full check over tells me that ive been doing burnouts etc.

So what does the dozy tw*t say yep your front tyres have been smoking there still warm, well couldnt stop laughing at him could I, so after a telling off, im told that if i condone any more anti-social behaviour in my 325i ill have it taken off of me, id like to see them try.
Who buys a 325i to drive it steady? Not me ne way.

So if ne one is passing through Wetherby make sure you get your presence known. :mad:

My mate had the same happen to him in his m3 in bracknell
4 police cars! Stupid, told him the same bollox about having car taken away. Talk about power going to peoples heads, I could understand if it was someone doing loads, or a bunch of chavs doing them on a cruise.

I hope you let him give you the big speech about front tyres being warm etc. then when he'd finished giving you a bollocking, told him 'btw it's a RWD car'
I know I would have :twisted:
Cheers,
Robin

He went a funny shade of red when I told him it was rear wheel drive, even though his mate who was clued up had already assessed the rear wheels, never mind hes the one who looks a twat and drives a car that highlights this.

Going on towards a place called Collingham
Collingham's supposed to be a posh little place, I drove through there a while ago and got my driver's window bricked by some kids. (Well, it was a marble actually, but I 5hit myself and got an ear full of glass all the same.)

Plod didn't want to know, :evil: they were very young kids and it's fooking dangerous. Plod must've been too busy molesting tyres on cars. :evil:

police can take yourcar if they see or think you are up to anti solcal behavor
new laws hes prob put yur name and number on list if your seen again he can confishcate your car legaly! be warned
they sniked it in on asbo laws !!! section 59 i think

Section 59 Warnings

Recent changes in legislation permit the issuing of Section 59 warnings in cases where a vehicle is being used in what can be described as an anti-social manner. Any subsequent reports may result in the confiscation of the vehicle for which a fine of Ԛ£105 is levied for the return of the car. motorcycle etc.

Ive had a plod feel my front tyres and tell me:

"these are roasting, and flaking rubber, do you know what that tells me!!?... it tells me you are a prick, and you've been driving like a prick!"

my reply: "ehh.. its a rwd car though, so if any tyres were flaking rubber, it would be the back ones.."

him: "dont backchat me sonny, get in your car, and on your way or ill be taking it off you!"

There are some proper arseholes in the police force. A mate of mine got put on that list for being at a cruise he was told they had him on video doing donuts and burnouts in his Elise. Once more and the car gets crushed, and there are a couple have boyracers who have had there cars taken away in my area! 8O
