Was travelling from my garage to my humble abode this evening when I saw blue lights flashing ahead, opened my darkened window so not to arouse suspicion to see the most overloaded Nissan Sunny saloon you could imagine........the end of the exhaust was touching the road !!! Police officer was looking at the back of the car in astonishment while the asian driver tried to explain himself..........looked in my rear view mirror to see BiB shaking his head and telling the asian gentleman to get in the police car......quite amusing.........a visit to the cash and carry and a Nissan Sunny do not mix.

Good story Poorcardealer...

I presume you are also complimenting the Bib on taking the trouble to deal with the motorist..

I've seen a Merc travelling down the road which was so heavily laden you could see the rear axle had bent. I've seen 4x4's with so much stuff on top they were swaying with the wind.

It's a common sight in Egypt Apparently it's a game, see how much stuff you can put in your car when you leave your previous country in a hurry

I'm not stirring but just an observation: would you have said 'white gentleman' if indeed he had been white?

Street.....of course I do like the police most of the time!!

No offence meant to anybody asian by my post, but seeing him plead his innocence next to his white overloaded Nissan Sunny was very funny.
