Is the car a ringer? you said it was an Audi? It must be an Audi, (and I trust you - Corsa sh*tboxes and Audis do NOT look similar lol, a Corsa 1.1 would have struggled to get to 120mph...?

Is THIS worth reporting to the police?

Might have made a mistake with the reg? But tbh with him driving like that id guess he wouldnt care... so he would use a different reg.

Thats kind of what I was thinkin, it was def an audi estate, and pretty damn quick so cant help thinkin now it was dodgy, but if i was to report it and mention my speed I would be the one getting done for speeding regardless and would def loose my license, so damned if you do damned if you dont. But with regards to the other comments..its a lesson learnt.

Anyway....did anyone watch long way down?

And how are they going to do you for speeding, if a police officer didnt witness you how are they going to back up what speed you were doing. I would have thought that would get chucked out of court.

If you're going to report it just dont mention the speed, just say you felt intimidated and were watching the road and you have no idea how fast you were going. If the other driver says you were doing 120 odd how are they going to co-oberate ( sp ) that.

IMHO they've got no way of proving your speed or the speed of the car. I'd agree a 1.2 corsa isnt going to get up to those sort of speeds, so if it was an Audi it was on false plates...

Yes, not sure about Ewan's missus turning up next week though, no birds allowed, surely??!

I wouldnt mention the speed - just tell them that you were cut up by this guy, he looked suspicious, and you saw him driving eratically as he went on his merry way. Then you decided to punch his reg into t'internet and you thought..hmmmmm..?

I know...rubbish that shes tagging along IMO...to be honest this series has really been pis*ing me off - all they seemed to do was complain about how little time they had in places...and didnt have time to appreciate the cultures....they planned it (supposedly), and they had a previous trip to benchmark how long they would need to do it...

Was kinda thinking spoilt brats - so many people would kill to be in their position...

Off my soapbox now...lol

err ?
we looking out for a corsa or a audi ? .........

It was defintily an audi estate so not sure what to do really? I'm making the assumption thats its a nicked car using a cloned plate??
