but the government needs to make sure they tell the whole story and not what they want people to hear.

ha haa ha.

is that a joke or are you showing us you are naive?

A little from column A, a little from column B. I guess we can always hope one day to have a good government who will do the right thing by us :uh-huh: *just nod and smile*

We used to own a HJ Premier (308)... When at department of transport at McGregor in QLD I was in DOT getting my learners while my other half ran to the car to go home to get something I had forgotten.

While andrew was walking back to the car, a copper was standing near the car just looking over it. He asked andrew if he was the owner and he said yes. The copper commented that they were a machine in there days and ours was in perfect condition. He loved it.

There are some cops that admire lovely cars and some that are just arseholes... The arseholes are usually the Constables just outta the academy that think they are top shit because the are a cop. The nice ones are usually the older ones that have been in the service for 20 odd years and aren't so hung up about being a cop.. To them its just a job. There are some really nice cops believe it or not (I've worked with many) ... But as i said.. there are a fair share of arseholes too.

You have to remember that they are just doing their job... although going to the extremes of having our cars taking away is a bit over the top...

And that Glen Miller guy is just what the media wanted.... An absolute tosser... He makes people like me sick... It scares me to think that there are actually people like him out there in out society.

I've always wished that there was some way that I could get in on the act at work and have say for people like us that just enjoy our cars and dont mind a good little squirt on the freeways every now and then.

sounds familiar NismoGirl

my cousin used to own an immaculate black ford cortina, cops used to pull him over just to ask if it was for sale or not...

that thing was an animal, ran an unhidden NOS setup that the cops noticed and appreciated...

i think if anyone has a gripe against cops its just the minority that ruin it for everyone else

just like car modifiers, which today tonight has so f*kn kindly demonstrated to us

:uh-huh:
