Handily runs in sequence with a few of the marked cars...
This particular one had stopped in an odd place with its hazard lights on.Then around the next bend was a marked car that had nicked someone; I had the impression that maybe the unmarked car had followed the target until the jam sarnie could do the pull and then pulled over to avoid being seen. Maybe I need a tinfoil hat
My old 1.8T vRS was on an NX plate. It got rather annoying when people would come tearing up the outside lane only to clock the plate & anchor up
Before i bought it i had a test drive in another NX plated car...which went out to its new owner a day or 2 later and ended up with some very sneaky extra lights fitted
My current TFSi vRS isn't on an NX plate....it still has the same effect on some people

sorry.
I notice the trend for big bikes to look like plod, and one trundled through Yarm today with obviously Blue side marker lights. Surely that is bordering on impersonation?
Stockton's "Enforcement Officers" are now pootling about on Pan-type bikes. I await the number of people panicking when they see them...I notice the trend for big bikes to look like plod, and one trundled through Yarm today with obviously Blue side marker lights.

No need to be sorry. I tend to "make progress" where possible so there's no need to mistake me for Plod ambling about at Patrol speed but people still do it. I'm looking to swap to something a bit less plod-like next year so hopefully i won't have to put up with it much longer I notice the trend for big bikes to look like plod, and one trundled through Yarm today with obviously Blue side marker lights.

As for the bikes you're spot on. The amount of plain white bikes with white helmeted riders in black leathers is annoying.

No different to the mongs who put a folded up high vis on the parcel shelf of their car in the hopes that people will mistake them for an undercover car.I notice the trend for big bikes to look like plod, and one trundled through Yarm today with obviously Blue side marker lights.

A friend was driving down the A19 near Thirsk the other day and was passed at some speed by a RR evoque in white with blue and twos going, very discrete fitting of blue light.
There are a few of these around, as far as I have been able to tell there are high ranking fire officers cars. Well the black one near Bedale is as he lives in my village.AGumbo said:
