probably the same on Monarch road

you do get the odd nutter charge up and down quite often, its a real PITA considering its a bus route and people quite often leave their cars out on the side of the road too...
Nelson road is another that is well worthy of the mention too IMO!

I had words with the Council and road authorities over the years about Nelson Road as I lived in Freemantle Court. The cheapest solution would be to paint a bloody white line down the middle to make it look a lot narrower as everyone coming up the hill always used to drive staight up the centre. "Wasn't a priority....etc"


My poor little Visa GT was written off in Andrew Road due to an idiot going so fast on the wrong side of the road - I saw him coming, stopped and thought it was all fine but he locked up and just kept on coming until he hit me head on - the skid marks were 75ft long. I was so annoyed after as I loved that car

I try and miss St.Neots when I go "visit" my Dad in Southoe and luckily there are no cameras in Southoe (yet!!) and its not a speeding place but there is a blue TVR Wedge in a front garden that I keep admiring (any takers??).

Odd. I was flashed by a blasted camera there recently - but the odd thing was I wasn't speeding (26 ish in a 30). Last thing they need is vigliante speed gunners

oh yes i know them!,



it may look cosmetically a bit ratty, but its a good soild very well used example that!
i know the owner and his wife quite well (she's the barlady at Buckden Marina leisure centre) he gave me a blast up through Buckden in it a summer or two ago!

Barford road I can understand with the school being along there, but surprised you could get any real speed along there as a few roundabouts and crossings IIRC

Believe me the local chavs can get a fair speed up along there! As for roundabouts - they really don't seem to care. I live in the new estate along there and often almost have the front of my car taken off by people who seem oblivious to the big circle in the road.

Didnt realise you were that close Zippee, Probably the Gypos from down near the footy club cutting through. Ahy they just make the roundabouts the full size...I mean what do them blocked pave parts achieve!!

Ooh, ooh, that's the one!! I hope they realise froma TVR point of view who's inturned 200 yards from them!! I mean that nicely and everytime I go there I keep wanting to knock on the door but obviously not all TVR people realise Dad was a Director in the '60s and helped keep them afloat, then the work he did classic-wise in the '80s and the SEAC and the Tuscans.
