Well, what are you being pulled over for?
I guess the police are just a bit wary of hot hatches, they must expect trouble from them.. you want to watch those cameras though, hope one / both of them had no film :?

Not knowing the full details of each situation I'd say bad driving :P

What car did you have before the G40?

G40's make you do silly things it's not entirely your fault.

(I got stopped for the firt time in ages a few days ago. I'd just got back in my gti after driving a slow car around for a few days and was experimenting with how close I could get the accelerator pedal to the carpet. Came off the dual carriage way onto a round about and a police car stopped me. Said I was driving too fast for the round about (it was national speed limit) I took it at around 50/60. I told them I hadn't broken the law and could see clearly that there were no cars coming. Ok my lane discipline went out the window but they let me off. Good job they didn't see how fast I was going before I got to the roundabout :oops: .)=My Bad driving.

so far i haven't been pulled in the g40 and i wasn't pulled in my old mk3 1litre which looked quite tasty!

what could help my cause is the lack of g40 badges on show! :lol:

is the car modded in any way? got any pics? sorry if this has already been asked.
