Hi Everyone,

Took my car into a valeting shop on Friday to ensure that is was in 'spick and span' condition for the NBO.
Reset the Peak values on the SECS unit before arriving at the shop.
Checked the peak values yesterday and the top speed read 137 mph.
I know it wasn't me!!!!!!
Advice please.

Call in to the valetting place and say you have had a phone call from the police (someone you know in the force) saying the car was seen speeding at xx.xx time when you know it was in their care. The look on some faces may tell you who was driving. You could then threaten to sue for them using your car without permission saying you have police evidence it was being used.

See what the responce is then.

Yep deffo go with the police idea or say a mate saw the car being driven fast and asked you where you were going in such a hurry etc. If they went through any cameras etc you don't want to be liable for it.

Stick with the police story-it will put the fear of God up em that bit more.
