Default How's this for luck !

Got my car back having passed the MOT without any issues .. awesome ..

On way to work and stopped at the lights. Three lanes and in the far lane is a fancy pants BMW.

The BMW driver is rocking the car on the clutch, so naturally, open road, fences at either side, industrial area and only maybe 1/4 mile to the next lights, I thought .. I'm going to destroy him.

So traffic light grand prix .. waiting .. waiting .. beep beep, my phone goes and the noise makes me look down (phone is by the gear stick) bang lights change and he roars off up the road .. closely followed by the unmarked police focus sat at the lights between us.

You lucky bugger.....

Did you not look in the Ford as you rolled up. First thing I do before doing anything stupid is look for the usual. 2 arials, OU number plate, no stickers in the windows....

Yup, he came down my side (pardon) and I saw the big POLICE in the back window. I assume he was giving me a few seconds to see if I gave chase.

He didn't stop along side me, clearly he saw the potential for a race.
