If thats the case mate, I would have popped to the local cop shop and have a word about it. Especially if you are bothered by it.

On a plus side, your car is likely to get some attention if it was stolen and just being driven, so thats a plus.

I didn't think car crime was that much of a problem around Cheltenham, i always thought it was mega posh down there.

My local bike dealer sponsored the local plod by giving them an R1 to use as a police pursuit vehicle, fully liveried, blues and twos the lot
Needless to say I took my business elsewhere
Kent Police have an Evo 8 as well, spotted it sitting at the Dartford Tunnel tolls a couple of weeks ago!!

Well i've had my scooby since January and haven't been stopped once !

Been followed by the Merc traffic cars and a few unmarked cars but I haven't got a problem with that as they are just doing what they are paid to do.

You must have upset one of the coppers at some time to get so much attention off them !

Mega posh ??? It was until a few years ago,gone seriously downhill now !

I spoke to someone from Manchester recently about scoobs getting nicked and he said he was glad he didn't live in Cheltenham as they had heard how bad it was down here
