Did anyone see this program & the silver Lupo GTi getting caught doing 124mph.

Does anyone know the lad caught ( only been driving 1 year ) ?
He got a ban for 48 days & £100 fine.

Can't remember what part of the country the coppers were in.

Anyone else see this :?: :?: :?:

He soon started gettin worried and scared lol, am i banned officer, lol,

i saw it earlier tonight. the guy was only driving for a year to. i thought it was tight how he got of so easily. i recking he had lupo gti to get it that fast. but i could be wrong. the guy did look pretty scared when he got pulled over... he even said he didnt know wat speed he was doing........... yea right....

if i remember rightly lupo in latin means wolf.

Yeh it was a GTi, you could briefly see the exaust.

I thought to myself that looked like a lupo from the blurr.

He thought he was only doing 90! His speedo must of been showing 140 at that speed.

ha ha, yeah I watched it - from the blurr I thought it was a mini cooper S because of the speed he was going - he must have felt like crap when he saw those blue flashing lights knowing what speed he was doing. Lucky lucky lad to get off so lightly. Although it did annoy me the copper smirking before and afterwards - some of them are utter c*nts. I'd be gutted to take someones license off them.

Speedo would have been showing around the 130 mark, 121 does anyway :wink:

when i actually 1st saw it it looked a BIT like my front end and i was like omg is that me. (thinking he wasn't going to chase) i use that road twice a day.

bbut i heard 124 and was like :shock: not me.

then saw the lupo, i was like GTi.. gotta be.

he was young to have it though tbh, and s**t himself
(i would be too tbh lol)
