I was pulled over for the first time a couple of month ago in my Honda for a perfectly good overtake, unfortuently the cop two cars behind me didn't think so. I always stick to speed limits, but like to progress where possible if I come behind a slow driver. You're totally right, a good b*******ing at side of road makes you see different

True mate, and most of 'em live on that "community" over the canal from our house. Menace on the roads a lot of them are.

You cheeky monkey. Could you image a 3.0 Z4 parked down the road amongst Suzuki Alto's and Kia Picanto's and the like?
