did you know that 6875 high performance cars were driven away without a trace last year and have never been recovered in this country alone....but the police must have been too busy giving a speeding ticket or a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt or farting with intent to notice.

...even if the average price of each of these cars is, say, 25 grand, thats over ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY MILLION POUNDS worth of motors nicked a year!!!!

That's even more than the Police make in Gatso fines

Cool

Maybe the Police are nicking them to flog to the Russians to raise money for new speed cameras, which is why they are never recovered.

I'll go back to the muppet forum now
