  • I'm kind of a big deal...
Anyway - back the thread, we seem to have black Octavia vRS patrolling the M6 in Cheshire which I suspect would be pretty useful but difficult to pick out at night

I've never seen a single police car on any stretch of the Cheshire M6, even though I'm sure they are about :)

On the M6 around Cheshire you need to watch out for the dark coloured Volvo S60's theres loads of them.

Used to be an Impreza Turbo in Manchester city centre as well, not sure if its still about though.

BobBarley you must be driving with your eyes shut or pressing the GTI a bit too much :grin: Going South (think after J25) there is a little hidden parking space for the rozzers and they hide behind what I can only describe as a mound - you don't know they are there until you have just shot past - luckily they are reading top shelf mags and eating donuts most of the time  :smiley:  No worries in the morning as it's chocker anyway  :angry:

It doesn't matter what the fuzz have for transport...they still catch you. I had to laugh today - as I was driving north on the M1 a Police Range Rover had just pulled over an orange  Lamborghini Gallardo heading South. :grin: :grin: :evil:

I wonder what speed he was doing :rolleyes:

Spotted a Black unmarked Volvo S60 on the M6 Toll Southbound. He'd pulled a very nice looking gunmetal grey Maserati 4200, bet that was going some on the empty toll road.

....Assuming: Good safe car, good road conditions with very light traffic, responsible and focussed driver - It's just not fair is it!! Why can't the UK learn from the way that they do it in Germany!!? I hope the police just gave him a warning and let him off.

Totally agree! I know most of you may not agree with this but if I am paying on a toll road I should be allowed to go as fast as I like! Its like selling a fat person a chocolate bar and then telling them they can only have half :embarassed:

Remember, speed kills. You might be lucky but the other person might not. If you're fat and stuffing yourself with chocolate, you'll only kill yourself.
