ArosaMike Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 (edited) My red Lupo was confiscated yesterday, and it sits in an impound lot in Dudley. It's about 20 miles from here. The car isn't important. What is important is the package I left in the glove box. The first team back here with the package will have an opportunity to work for me.
