Somehow Jim, I think the neighbours have raised such a clamour that the
local constabulary has taken notice.  Maybe it's time to replace that on/off
throttle switch with a more traditional setup?  ;-)

Just having fun - they'll never take me alive!

as well, no wonder our taxes over here go up every year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3 of them (T5's that is) in a 5 mile stretch of the A64 this morning, 2 more
at lunchtime in Leeds, another couple on my way home and a motorbike plod at
the side of the road near my house. H*ll - my POS coupe isn't _that_ much of
a threat....

The police in Kingston upon-Hull have recently pensioned off their Escort
Cosworth in favour of two Imprezas, one in plain clothes, the other in
full-on traffic-issue dazzle paint. They patrol teamed up with an I5 carring
a dog-handler (one of the dogs is called 'Exocet') and the Impreza driver
_never_ leaves the vehicle.
