If they still want my car after they remove the knife blade from their throat, they're welcome to it.

Damn! I was thinking of going back to Stratford at the weekend to see my folks.

Where abouts on the A46 did it happen? How did they try to get the car?

Real shame that there are people out there who think they can just take what the want and devestate a family in the process.

It was near Evesham. There's 3 roundabouts close together there and it was inbetween two of them.

Waited till I was nearly stationary, then drove down middle of road stopping in front of me and tried to block me in by stopping dead in front of me (there was traffic behind me). Not sure if they were planning on ramming me or just blocking me in further by reversing, but they'd left a gap down there left hand side and when they tried blocking it they left me just enough room to manouver.

As I live in Stratford this is a bit close for comfort!! I am in the processes of sourcing a MK5 GTI, glad you managed to get away but very scary non the less!

This makes me sick.   

To top it all, a friend of mine had his Cayman car jacked from him last summer, the Police found it outside someones house and they also found another car there.

Caught red handed?  Well, it went to court last month...  £250 fine and community service.   

What's going to stop them with such lenient punishments.

This is the problem mate - it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better

The sooner the BNP get into power the better.

Anyone caught thieving red handed should have their hands chopped off :angry:

£250 fine - I bet they were given a budget of a quid a week to pay it too :angry:

Teddy, I suspected you of being a closet racist when reading some of your previous posts about Nigerians... The minute the BNP get into power in this country, the faster it will go down the sh1thole.  And if you're not then why do you openly support a racist political party? 

Sorry for hijacking the thread Mike and I'm glad you got away.  Seeing that outsourcing is now the in-thing I think we should outsource punishment to China - not India because they're still a democracy of sorts and they'd probably slap a 5000 rupee fine on the scum which would be the same as £250   :grin: :grin: :grin:

Yes I suspected the same... hence my subtle post above. Each to their own i guess. If KGB dude wants to waste his vote.... thats his call. What I love about racists is that they are just so easy to wind up :grin: :grin: *nudges* TeddyKGB then give him a ooops up side his head!! :grin: :grin:
