And I dont believe for a second you never break speed limits - especially if you drive a Merc Sprinter van.

LOL - I think that'd mean I'm probably the only one.

Actually, 60 and above, where it is safe, I do. I'd totally agree with stevie007 on that.

If I'm on the motorway I will use higher speeds to get me to places quicker. I don't have any driving convictions. I havent had a shunt yet (Unlike some who have mishaps in the CAR PARK! What speed was you going at I have no idea but it couldnt have been pretty fast.

I'm sure you've got a bottomless list of driving mercedes sprinter vans such petite considering I can drive HGVs. I didnt become a car nut for no reason.

Use speed where needed but use speed with common sense.

When the Road says 30 mph, I'm refering to those who travel at 20 mph on a clear road on a sunday morning. Last Time I checked the police could stop you for that for holding up traffic!.

No point argueing - I agree with all of that. I'd love an HGV license myself.

Oh, and the being pissed off by scooter riders - don't worry, we like pissing people off

I saw a Fiesta last night that youd have liked then, had a big Jap front bumper and the CCM Sypher (I think) spoiler on it (Insert sick smiley here) It was gash.

I never go looking for a "race" however is there is a w**k driving stupid fast around me I will generally have a play to teach them a lesson

list so far includes:

Bentley Continental GT
Seat Leon Cupra R
Porsche Boxster S
Sierra Sapphire Cosworth
Numerous Saxo's/Corsa's
Civic Type R
Integra Type R
BMW 330ci

Most of the people driving the cars have been really nice, slowed up as soon as they've realised what w**k they'd been and generally stop to have a chat about the car. ONLY one that was a total t**t was the guy in the cossie.
