depends when u drive around.. i guess

i went out a few months ago.. midnight sat night (normally i dont drive that kinda time )

3 of us left a car park to cross town,  a 1.4 saxo with lexus lights *yawn( (male driver, late 20s, owned by his g/f tho), a 8v mk2 (female driver, she's 31), and me...

saxo guy got pulled for being a cock in the carpark as a riot van pulled in, not a good move.

they pulled the mk2 girl over and gave her a producer and i didnt even get a second look from em...
