AndyW Posted May 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 £500 fine for doing 142mph....... i thought they would rip his license up?It has to be said, it was pretty stupid to do that sort of speed, on Le Mans weekend, on the major route from the North.Plus if they'd stopped him on the way back he'd have really been in the merde.

Putney Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 so will that have any impact on his driving record over here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyW Posted May 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 No, not at all, but it can leave you stranded over there if the worst happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putney Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 142 is really moving... what do you actually have to do then to get banned! LOL... imagine that over here... £500 for 140mph.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyW Posted May 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 142 is really moving... what do you actually have to do then to get banned! LOL... imagine that over here... £500 for 140mph....To be honest, his story doesn't entirely add up. I guess it depends on the particular copper, but I've heard of people going less than that and getting banned and fines far far higher than that.

Putney Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Yes he must have been clocked at a much lower speed. I agree he is a bloomin' lier!That Tuscan sounds like a right nighmare...No way i want a Sagaris now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 still he lives up my way here and bought the tuscan for £16k, maybe i should offer him half that to take it off his hands style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> lot of performance for the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putney Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 lots of bills too...no point having 300bhp plus brake horsepower if the ****er wont start half the time......anyone know how good the sagris is build wise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 much the same though i hear the later ones had much better quality control. Major issues shoud be sorted when they get to the second hand market but still seem to be lots of engine rebuilds and electrical gremlins.

AndyW Posted May 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 Head honcho of AJ has finally got his F430 Spider, in the correct colour too, grey with red leather.If you read it though, this is car is just temporary because the dealer cocked up his order.

Crusoe Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 would you buy back his car after a few months of his driving for the same price he paid for it? Can see it doing a lot of track days lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 (edited) lol at david's responce to my comment, sure the gentle run in period on the loaner was lost in the editing process for the first journal entry style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />Edit: David's put down a deposit on the new nissan GT-R already too, wonder if he'll keep the ferrari when that arrives.
