Very true.. I got pulled over 3 times in 4 months in my metro just because it was obviously modified.. First copper got a right shock when he pulled me over as I was on my way to a meeting and had a suit oh..and he was mighty shocked that a) it was a women and b) the condition of the car.. it was a metro with NO RUST. ( by the way I had actually been one of the few motorists driving at the limit and reason I was pulled and I quote." The car wasn't registered to the address you pulled away from and these sort of cars are nicked alot." IT was was a modified metro.. not likely to be top of the to nick list) But anyway.. I was stereotyped and pulled over..while other NON modded cars blantantly sped past.
there is just a few people and everyone remembers em.. near me its a 1.0 litre nova and he has tried it on with me in every car I have had.. including the sx's.. Like I am going to waste my petrol.
There are some people that just think they can drive better than they can.. and its not just the lads/lasses in small modified hatchbacks.. its also the big BMW's, Alfas you name the car.. it can have an idiot behind the wheel.
Long rant ( sorry had one of them days.)
