I don't disagree with that. But smart motorways are more about congestion management than safety. I don't think they work in either respect, but hey ho. Of course there are worse issues. But there's a limited (and dwindling) amount of money. And speeding is an easy one to catch, catching poor...

People used to say the same about police waiting by pubs on a Friday night. There was a time when drink driving wasn't a socially unacceptable crime, so people considered it unfair for the police to go for the easy targets. In the situation above, of them waiting around a corner, I don't care...

I don't agree. See more stupid, phone using, coffee drinking retards on the quickest roads (mway). Average British driver is a r****d. A window licking, dribbling utter mess. It's why they get so annoyed when you beep your horn or flash them. They have zero f**king clue what they've done...

Do you still do the same? Only slow down after the limit change? Or have you changed your driving as a consequence?

I didn't say slow. I said not paying attention. And paying attention does make a driver better. Always.

But that's f**king retarded driving. That's why morons pile into the back of slowing traffic. Looking 5yd in front of the bonnet, then getting caught out by something further ahead. What does anyone gain by slowing a few seconds later? Nothing. It's lazy driving, and it allows them to catch...

They've caught you for that reason. Revenue generating or not, in that moment, you could of been driving better. Catching drivers not paying attention makes it more legitimate, not less lol.

But why wait until the sign to start slowing down?? Use some observation, plan ahead and show some road sense?? If someone is demonstrating poor observation and planning and gets caught in that situation, fair f**king game imo!

You think laws should be decided by voting?

The same could be said of many laws. And be equally nonsensical.

I do get what you're saying, but the counter argument would be that speed limits do apply downhill. I'm not saying I'm in favour of how they operate. Personally, I stick to the limit (or slightly below) in any posted limit (ie bar the black line). If/when I get caught doing over 60/70 I'm not...

Maybe I'm a c**t (or definitely), but speeding, getting caught and then being upset about it seems a bit whiney to me. Fair enough if it's a minor discretion at 3am on a deserted road, or if you're involved in a car chase with Jason Statham. But otherwise it's peoples own fault for going enough...

Bike I get, but van? I think a lot of folks that get caught spend a fair amount of time over the limit and rely on the fact that there aren't many traffic officers about, and fixed cameras are easily avoided. Round here they've started using an officer on a bike with a portable setup...

Really? I've never understood that sort of comment , it's not difficult to maintain a consistent speed without constantly looking at the speedo.

You got done for 74 in a 70?

Most buyers don't perceive it that way

Get the box. Stick is crap imo, more crashes, more buffering issues etc. Box isn't perfect, but it's very good.

Then don't be too bloody honest. That's fsh imo, up to them to ask for receipts. Ditto the wheels, take pics and leave it at that.

Does the service book have all the stamps?

I've not read through the advert (can't understand your accent), but the pictures don't do it justice. Need to be all done in same location at same time etc. The pictures make it appear that not much thought has gone into the advert.

Went to Berlin a few years ago, saw loads of them. I imagine we'll see more premium small cars once anything with normal emissions is banned from city centres.

The UK press car iirc?

Ridiculous that cause can't be found. On a serious note, get someone else to place the advert.

This. Use the seatbelt fitting as it's designed for.

Even though I've got cruise, I still miss the speed limiter in 1*2's.

What sort of costs involved with something like that?

Allegedly.

Was genuinely tempted by that. Then I read who did the build.

Anyway @Sir_Dave, if you ever need the use of something practical and fast with a big boot, I'll swap for the day ;)
