Depends on around which strike days your car was built :poke:[/quote]

A bit harsh there PVR, Lotus have never striked and the guys and girls at Hethel are very passionate about their cars. That being said, if you build a car by hand the possibility of the odd issue may arise. ;)

[quote=""Avtar""]Travelling down the A4 to the office this morning everyone in front was travelling rather slowly, so I popped to the outside line to overtake only to realise there was a Police Officer holding a speed gun. By the time I realised I braked and was parrallel to the policemen at this point and I think he was still aiming down the road.

Since I was not pulled up further down the road does this mean I may have gotten away with it?[/quote]

was it at the bottom of the great westroad by texaco?

ps the brakes are good on them 3.0ds when you need them

It was indeed at that location, and yes the brakes are very good. Are you not on holiday?
