406 Coupe vid

Post by Blue406 »

Well sorta.
I filmed this video this afternoon as I was bored.
Checkout the autowiper switching from sedate to mental mode at various points.
And yes... I sped the video up x3 :)

Enjoy:

:shock: :shock: Everyone's on the wrong side of the road!!! Suspension seems a little hard (maybe at that speed), looks like you had a little slide while you were chasing that 4x4 and just what is that stuff on your windscreen? (We don't get much of it here...)

Tis the speed of the vid... makes it all seem quite bouncy. The roads around here are atrocious.

No slide though :lol:

Looks like I'll be in Leicester in November to help run the Sci-Fi weekend at the National Space Centre.

You can have a shot of mine then :)

Who on earth goes for a "spin" at 3am :roll: It would be a sure way to get lifted by the police at that time.

Do you think he'd been drinking and crashed? maybe he's dumped it at a mates somewhere untill things die down.

You appear to be getting the less savoury end of the stick here :frown:

WTF? What an arsehole!
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

Worth contacting the cops to see if they know anything? Or are you worried you'd drop the cnut in it? (as if...)

But I'm a tad pizzed off - I didn't even ask him if he was ok, just put the phone down on him :evil:
I'm still stunned really but I'm just wondering... Where the **** IS the coupe??
Phone the police and say its been taken without consent.

What a fecking retard

Why don't you take him for a nice walk, I hear Beachy Head is beautifull in September, lots of "couples" walking etc. watch the edge though - can get a bit slippy :twisted:

Oh no!!! Hmm, nice numberplate (you missed a bit...). Looks like a total loss to me, not sure about the car though...

I'm surprised the police haven't said anything :?

I mean, stolen cars need following up urgently otherwise the trail goes cold. (I must stop watching Road Wars of an evening :roll: )

Has someone liberated a wiper a wiper blade already? (pic 1) :roll:

Looks like that wooden post thing took the brunt and looks like it's bent the sill (cill?) would've got away with most of it if the car had missed that damn post :frown:

Fully comp?
