Is an Xreg May2001. no leather, and currently at 50070miles on the clock, 5 dr, black. I seen 2 on autotrader and both was only 3 dr, at 7k, so thought i start at 7500 to see where it will lead to.

oh and i suppose it still carry the dealers used car warrenty may help for all the unexpected. so as a private sell that comes with warrenty, i thought is pretty good?

Too bad mate... I got done doing an avg of 95.9 and was trying to hit my top speed on a clear stretch of motorway. I musta hit 105 and was lucky my avg was JUUUST under 96.
I was told I would have been summoned to court if I was caught doing 96 and above. Lukily my car was a bog standard 1.4 aswell as that also goes against their judgement.
Plus it was my first offence.

But the worst thing was my premium shot up by about Â£150 and that will carry on for another 3-5yrs worth of premiums

Getting caught speeding... you're looking at a deficit of not only a Â£60+ fine... but also 3-5yrs of inflated premiums

(any one know if after 3yrs when the pts are taken off... can u tell the insurers that u dont have any pts anymore? cos they ask u to declare pts within the past 5yrs

bit of a scam from them really)

I've also seen the news of who some people are being banned for doing 100+ so I feel extra thankful that I only got the 3pts.
Hehe one thing I learnt is that if you want to go 100+ do it in a powerful car rather than pushing a little car to get there... cos its easier to get caught if you're slowly getting to 100 rather than a car accelerating from 60 to 100 in a few secs
