Forget this dave I was too quick on the keys, what I was going to say was that a couple of the lads of a firm I do occassional work for have been on these courses and I would assume its would be cameras (fixed) that would of caught them as it would of been all around the yard if the police had...

Thanks Daved that explains it, theres one around here, they do it regular, BUT they were caught out by the fact there wasnt a 40 warning sign within 100 yrds of the camera,and around 30ish people had their fines qoshed, as Solarman said its things like this that are the loop holes, but seen as...

Dave please explain cause a couple of the lads who do trunking for the firm I work for occasionally have been on these and Im pretty sure it would of been cameras, as human nature being what it is the security guard would of said "have you heard about thingy, the police stopped him for speeding...

Excellent point dave, I remember a mate saying after getting pulled twice ib 2 wks. "well when I got stopped last week the policemen told me to get it fixed as soon as possible but my wifes been in hospital so I havent had the time" so policemans reply was " so you admit to using the vehicle...

Just a thought Pete, isnt there something where you can ask to go on a "speed aware course" where you pay a fee and the fine but dont have the points on ya licence. Dont know much about these as Im frugal with juice (seen as I have to pay for it... lol) and the lead weights been thrown away...

Another good post, lets hope your wrong about 174k being a lot on a terrano/mav as Ive got nearly 150k on mine and dont fancy swapping, as like you I have experience of other makes and models and nothing hits you in the face as being exceptional.....

Why didnt you just go up to the equivalent size of 15s with 31s added on your alloys????? Think the other guy had the better deal and plus youve had to add spacers, if you didnt already have them then youve had to shell out for them!!!!, still each one to there own.
