R32 owner nearly been Carjacked by a Clio!!!



New user here from www.uk-mkvs.net
Basically tonight I was very nearly car jacked by a Silver 182 in South Liverpool (the car had Xenons)
So has anyone lost a silver clio in these parts recently? if you have I feel damn sorry as theye wer quite determined guys desperate to add an R32 to there collection, anyway I ll just cut and paste the story from the other forum.

Right coming home from my folks tonight, I aproacehed a local roundabout and a silver clio 172 sport crossed over going the other way and nearly flipped it... I thought to myself, jees hes gonna crash or that must be knicked!

I carried on on before I knew it I had clio klingon, he tried to go the wrong way round a roundabout flashing me, at this point I thought race so gunned it... then I thought no stolen, concentrate, 2 more lanes and country roundabouts and a couple of 80mph speed bumps he was on me, so I indicated left but did a u-turn.. at this point I was parallel with the Clio... 4 lads with Balaclavas on (or northface hats and black scarfs) so I really drove the R32 like Id stolen it...
I am talking 80-90 mph over speed tables and there still trying to overtake me...

I did a mile like this to my local police station, where I piled the r32 nearly through the front door (station closes at 6) and held my had on the horn whilst dialing 999 with the other.. (they only drove off when I hit the horn I am sure thwy were considering trying it on outside the cop shop)

Before anyone slates me for not giving the car too them and for driving that fast in a speed bumped area.. I had no choice the likely hood of them just taking that car without me getting stabbed or a kicking was low... these are the gangs that are doing stuff like this round here.. would you stop and politely get out and give them your keys?

If someones 182 has been knicked they haven't realised/posted here yet.

Not good at all!

Glad you managed to get away, make sure you've got a handsfree kit on at all times next week with 999 on quick dial in case you need to make a very quick call under pressure.

Here about a lot of people having to sell their nice cars for basic sheds because of this sort of thing :(

You definitely did the right thing. Not being funny, but if none of those other three passengers were crapping it, trying to keep up with an R32 by their deranged driver - then clearly they must be unhinged to start off with.

Very scary. Just shows you in cases like this, that they will almost go to any length to nab cars - even endangering themselves in the process. :(

glad you got away without injury and still with your motor, scumbags like that should be shot!

Sounds like a lot of drivers on this forum tbh, fella lol.

Don't recall hearing of one being nicked today though, but not every 1*2 driver comes on here. If it was nicked I'm surprised they didn't give you a few bumps.

Good job you weren't a B road . The 172 would have you in the twisties ;)
lol.

Flipping heck that must of been really scary.
The thing people do...and the audacity.
Like the one where they put a dustbin in the road...you get out to move it and they
nick your car.

thats bad that! glad you got away, my first car got knicked from outside my parents house when i still lived there, in netherton, liverpool.

Found it again but still pissed me off! Now living in bacup lancashire so my 182 is hopefully safe fron them! my fiancee used to drive from burnley to liverpool before we got this house, in her type r, shudder to think of them doing that to her!

Good thinking matey
