Someone stole my GT2 plate

[Road Angel A]

Someone nicked my front numberplate at the 'Ring early on Saturday morning, from my GT2. They also tried to get the back one off too but failed.

The german police took it seriously and even tried to take fingerprints with their feather duster!

Just wondering why anyone would bother doing that? It wasn't that much of a special plate...

do you think it's just a 'native' after some 'touring plates'..?

ooh these bl00dy british comin here taking no notice of our 80km/h limits.. ooh hang on it's left hand drive.. and the driver has an 80s hair do..!

They put them on their car, drive fast through speed cameras, and you get the points!

Nice to know that the police took it seriously.

The useless coppers in this country wouldnt want to know until someone had cloned your number and gone through a speed camera at 32 in a 30 when an armed force of 20 of them would batter your door down at 3am to arrest you.

One needs to submit address details to get plates made up officially - Maybe the guy was after some dodgy plates so that he / she can drive past scameras and congestion charging monitoring.....

Arabella if I was a German policeman and had the chance to prolong a meeting with an attractive GT2 driving brunette lady I would dust the whole car for prints ;-)

seriously though chances of someone else driving a rainforest green GT2 and using your plates to commit a crime are slim.If they do wont be hard to sort. An Ex girlfriend had this happen to her silver SLK

Plenty of web sites where all you need to get plates made up is a credit card.

How did you know Arabella was an attractive brunette or have you been around the ring with her

cloning a car its all the fashion in london congestion charge etc

It was most likely a Brit that did it. I'll keep an eye out for the reg on the Ring photo sites in case they used it on a rental car.

Anyway, Road Angel A isn't "all that" - she's ugly and smelly; hence having to wear make up and perfume.

[Road Angel A]

Well, at least I've mitigated any potential charges - by reporting to the police...

Jacobyte Whelan, you're just jealous because I've got a GT2 and you've got a couple of old italian rust buckets...
