**ac3_snow** · 20th October 2010, 10:07

went to the old supermarket last night and parked in front of a white hyundai sante fe all stealthed out with lights on dash gril rear window etc. Had to look it over a few times before I was convinced but seems to be legit.
First time iv seen a truely undercover car like that closet I'v seen is the silver hyundai sedan in ohakune.
not a bad idea cause the old commies stick out like dogs balls but at the same time I don't quite ride perfectly allllll the time

Cops in Hamilton have a silver Nissan Cefiro with 18 inch wheels and a full body kit. That thing you would definately not pick apart from any other boy racer car.

There used to be a beaaaautiful honda accord up near Hamner Springs. Every time I went through there it would be at the side of the road with some poor sucker in front of it.

When I waved as I passed he waved back too :-)

Bwa ha ha, that is one of my bosses vehicles. There are a few of them. The bosses live at New Lynn and Greenhithe, and one in Glendowie. You will find that they were ambulance vehicles, not police.

BTW be very careful going along SH1 at Warkworth. All the roadworks are finished and it is a nice wide multilane piece of road, at each end it is a 100k area (with a short 80k stint) but the main part is 60KpH... it is being heavily enforced! Be warned..

And now you've gone and spoilt it!

Should not be an issue anyhow. We can only ride at 4K above the limit this w/e...

I am sooo glad that we are saved by the law!

I disagree, it's the useless pricks that can't ride/drive safely within the old 100kmph limits that have ruined it for all of us.

..and yes I know you were taking the piss

Yeah, you can ride any speed you feel like eh!

It's just that more than 4kph over the speed limit COULD get you a ticket.

Of course this has always been the case if the cop involved felt like writing out the ticket... for say 105kph

Why speed in the first place, isnt that what the track is for, not the road?

We're not all rich enough to go to a race track every time we want to exceed 100kmh.

**nathan.read** · 22nd October 2010, 16:28

Owing a CX 400 I dont go to the track.

I dont see the point of speeding on public roads, putting myself and others at risk.

What are you proving by speeding?
