Anyone see Mean Streets this evening

They stopped a 22B at the docks en route to Russia!

Wasn't too impressed by the repo guys...they grounded the front spoiler on the ramp!

Exclamation

Also wasn't too impressed with where they attached the tie downs, metal hook straight onto the very expensive wheel.

Anyone bought a 22B with funny scratches on the wheel recently

Unhappy

Just saw it too Bas!

Unbelievable! Looked like a minter until the repo man grounded the front spoiler and then the low loader chap had hooked metal claws round the rims. NICE!

I also wasnt impressed watching how in brandon (where is that place??) police use finger printing and dna samples to catch car thieves etc.

The forunately few times i've had the police out on incidents of this nature they've just said there would be no point and havent bothered with half the things they showed on this program !

Makes me wonder if this wasn't just because of the American airbase there as they certainly don't go to that trouble in surrey !

Yeah I saw that...funny about its destination cos at our last Sussex meet we were talking about a 22b that had recently been bought locally and reportedly was on its way to Russia!

As for the crew grounding the front spoiler

If it's near an American airbase, it's likely to be Brandon Suffolk (nr Lakenheath + Mildenhall) not far from Thetford.
