Dear tear arse, Would you please moderate your language, be polite and "mind your manners" TWOTOOMANY
I still have a squeaky clean licence. Not even a parking ticket since 1978. My method is simple, drive at 28, 38, 48 in a 30, 40, 50 limit. Don't go over 85 on dual carraigeways/motorways. Have as much fun as I can on the B roads where plod does not hang out.
Dear F328GTS M8, You must immediately dispose of the Ferrari as you are portraying wholly the wrong image of us proper Tear Arse's - it is disgraceful that you should have the audacity to write such things on this forum. The whole purpose of speed limits is for them to be broken - where is your sense of adventure for gods sake? 512 Tea Are - Tea Arse - Tear Arse
Dear Comrade, Fraternal Brother and Knight, We had the Chief Constable! (True). 512 Tea Are - Tea Arse - Tear Arse
Best numberplate I ever saw was outside the Ritz in London back in 93 or 94. There were 2 Lambo Countaches parked. The onle had the number plate "NOT 1" and the other "BUT 2" That was quite cool :8
I have M18 EUT on retention (Mi BEUT) - a friend with a Skyline has A8 EUT - both bought for £250 and worth a bit more now I suspect! (The Saxo was supercharged and embarrased a lot of exotica - ask Mark Collins - LOL!!) Image Unavailable, Please Login
Dear Comrade Tear Arse M8, I never said that I don't break speed limits, just not in 30, 40 or 50 zones. That's where where plod will get you. On the B roads is where I have my fun.
Dear Comrade F328GTS You are far too cautious. You must do your best endeavours to become more adventurous and live 'on the edge' a little more. 512 Tea Are = Tea Arse - Tear Arse
Have to agree with F328GTS as a). I already have 6 ponts and b). when you ACTUALLY have a Ferrari its not at all happy going that slow but 'sods law' will surely come into being if you don't behave. Find a deserted A or B road and I'm dust.....
They would be nice plates 6 or 7 letters in a row. Think all the names you could have. TWOTOOMANY YOUR SPELLING IS AS GOOD AS MINE
I believe the Police have an expression where they refer to drivers they've stopped as, "failing the attitude test". Often rather than saying, "would you like to pass the attitude test?", they might say, "do you know why I've stopped you, sir?". It's the same question. If you say, "No", you've failed. A tad of humility does no harm. I was stopped just the other day by two policemen in a big transit van, just after coming out of my drive late at night and going four hundred metres down the (totally empty) road in London. They were perfectly polite, did a registration check over the radio, asked a few questions about the car, complimented the car, and just said, "try and keep it down in London as it is a very fast car, sir". We both knew I wasn't doing 29 in a 30, and we both knew that they had no evidence that would stand up in court, so it was just a two minute chat, and a friendly piece of advice with respect on both sides. No problem. Much better than a camera hidden in a hedge. Three registration plates that made me chuckle were a Black Diablo (that I nearly bought instead of my 355 four years ago) with the plate CUN 7 - which I think pretty much summed it up - and a Corvette StingRay with a US plate I once saw in London which was SAY BYE - nice, and with a seven litre V8 you only saw the back of it receeding at speed. Finally, I saw a Vanquish pull up at a pub 2 yrs ago with the plate BOND 007, and just as I was thinking "what a fool", Pearce Brosnan got out! Cool as you like. Personally, I have my initials as my Fcar plate (same plate on last 3 cars), which for me achieves anonimity and removes snobbery of year-related plates to everyone else, whilst meaning something just to me... IMHO, one of the coolest things about a lot of Fcars is they dont have all that cr@p on the back telling you how many valves / GTi / XR3 / Cup / Sprint / etc. It's just a Ferrari, that's all you need to know, so why have a plate stating the model / cylinder capacity / engine layout / FER / etc. ? The factory already put a nice Cavallino Rampante emblem on the front and back... Just MHO.
