Well I think you are onto a ban if the police pursue the dangerous driving route. IIRC its 6 points and if you get that number of points within 3 years of your test you lose your licence and have to resit it. An expensive lesson on the undeclared mods too I think.
But you will be wiser next...
It was me! My g/f lives on the south side so I stopped for a mcflurry! Got spotted again! Anyway my car is almost back to full health now, appart from a dented bonnet courtesy of renault.

Its back from the garage but hasnt been cleaned as I asked and they have dented the bonnet where they closed it. After a bit of arguing the service manager is going to take the dents out and hopefully get the oil off the underneath of the car.
Im also wanting in writing that the engine hasnt...
Maybe they just did mine up finger tight, and forgot to tighten it fully. just hope the engine hasnt been damaged but it shouldnt be with the amount of oil pouring out of it when it was switched off!

Hopefully everything should be ok. I was just thinking about getting another car too.... :(
I wasnt hammering it and had made sure the engine was fully warmed up as always before giving it any right foot action. The AA guy found the sump plug in the undertray under the engine so it had only just fallen out.
Im going to ask them to steam clean the engine and under the car cos there...
Yeah well hopefully the garage do this but you never know. I noticed the car using more and more oil just before this happened, I topped it up a couple of nights ago. The oil was obviously draining slowly from the sump plug onto the undertray which is why I didnt see any in the drive. But when I...
I was coming back from a bit of a run today and noticed blue smoke pouring off the back of my 2 year old cup.I pulled over straight away to find the engine emptying its contents all over the road! :( Huge black oil slick and a call to my bro and uncle to hopefully tow me to the garage. When they...
