Traffic cops are taking an unhealthy intrest in my car....
Discussion
Something strange has happend over the past 2 days.....
Coming back from Blackpool to Manchester about 5pm yesterday on the M61 doing 75 as it was a bit slippy and not ideal in a TVR, in the middle lane (going past a stream of lorries) by the Botany Bay building, going up the hill when a police range rover comes flying up the outside lane, all guns and lights blazing, I could see him come on at the junction (he wasnt on the bridge or the slip road as I know their tricks
) anyways, as he comes along side me, he slows right down, lights still going, and takes a good look at the car and then buggers off again at high speed lights still going...?????
Then I got onto the M60, going into the roadworks at the trafford center, same bloody thing happens again with a police range rover. Now I dont speed in roadworks, something I have NEVER ever done. But before he comes belting up and minute or so before there was a range rover on the opposite side and as we approached each other I could see him looking at the TVR.
I will admit I can push the car, but not over the past few weeks as the weather and road conditions wont allow me to, unless I want to be facing the otherway very quickly indeed.
Then tonight (about 30 mins ago) on the way back from ASDA near the Man City football ground when a traffic car going the opposite way, turns round and follows me back home. He carried on when I turned into my street.
I have no lights out, everything is working as it should be and I am not being silly with the car in this weather...so what the hell is going on.?
Any ideas anyone..? TBH its getting to be a bit disconcerting.

Maybe the have seen you speeding afew months ago and are just letting you know they are about,or one of them could have seen a lady driving a TVR and told all his mates and they are checking you out
Doh...I like the idea of being a babe in a sporty little number, so will go for that reason.
