Once again the genuine enthusiasts get caught up in legislation designed to detter the citreon saxo with big tailpipe brigade! Sledghameer to crack a
nut, if you want to stop the chavs who spend their time donughting in car parks just send a copper along to check their tax, mot and insurance details
evry time, they'll soon get fed up. 5 or more cars!! WTF!

I used to live in Nottingham and the big bore Chavmobiles used to be a real PITA.
Blatting down residential roads with dustbin exhausts at about one in the morning- not very friendly...
Seems a sledgehammer to crack a nut. The problem wasn't the fact that there were loads of cars, or that they were going from one car park to
another (MacDos being a favorite of course), it was the fact that they were doing it at warp speed (well for a crappy old Nova with loads of extra GF
on it) anyway...
Why didn't they just nick em all for dangerous driving. Would seem far simpler....
Oh well, off to the garage

Wouldn't it be better to deter them with a visit from a vosa van to check ALL the cars at once, I'm sure 1 single complaint would
get the visit required ??
Imagine them seeing all their cars being trailered away to get their exhausts fixed !!

It all comes down to the "lets put up a speed cam" and "get rid of a copper" state.
Lack of police and community contact is causing these problems.
Let's not talk to people, just ban it!!!!!!!
I have been invited to a hotrod/modified car meeting tomorrow at valley park in croydon (5pm weather permitting).
Does that mean that I am committing an offence?
What about cars going to weddings etc?
Lets just pick on the cars that stick out from the crowd!!!

It bans any event in which five or more vehicles congregate, race or drive in convoy in any part of the city.
Does that include circus's and gypos? What about fun fairs? Stupid Nanny state....

I bet they'll have a bleeping field day in the summer when they have to arrest the local IAM motocyclists on a ride out. Watch em try and keep up
I wonder if they will be going over to Donington park, ticket book in hand for every event.

What happens if you include people chatting in car parks outside the cinema? Congregating surely?! It just takes the wee and could be extended to
include any at park, or layby capable of holding more than 5 cars at once. Although it is only applicable in nottingham.

OOOOOOOHHHHHHH Dear! Did someone mention gypo's - can't ban them from anything mate - frightfully politically incorrect.
But Yeah ban all normal law abiding citizens from doing anything that Tone's Mob don't want to do themselves - why not ban cars
altogether, if we go back to horse & carts the Gypo's will be happy, they've already got them
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

They all have Nissan Navaras and enormous Hobby caravans round here, mostly nicked . The police raided an illegal camp and impounded 3 vehicles, 7
caravans and a stolen Husky dog (chip in neck)
More than 10 cars in convoy, that's the M1 on Friday afternoon then

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Your Plod must be a lot braver than ours, or your Gypo's are pacifists! Down here the Plod won't go near a Gypo camp without an armed
escort!!

Yep gippos around here have Discos, Navaras, L200s, brand new transits and caravans bigger than your average terraced house! They took over my
sister's school and set fire to several trees and the police did bugger all! This is a 3-13yr old girls school and they told the school to
'keep away from them'
