Just a brief heads up, chaps.

Late Sunday afternoon I lead footed the Lotus for brief spell Londonbound on the M2 near Junction 4. Clocked a HID equipped car a long, long way behind me (500 yards +) who nonethless appeared to be speed matching. I instantly backed right off to an indicated 75. He eventually overtook before giving me a brief flash of his rear facing blue lights prior to clearing off.

Car was a midnight blue Skoda Octavia estate with heavily smoked side and rear windows (bronzy coloured tint).

Careful out there fellas. smile

They also appear to have taken to sitting on the london bound on slip at jct 3. Seen them there several times. A couple of times they have then blasted past me down near the M2 bridge b4 pulling someone over, both times ignoring other vehicles that were doing pos 100+. Looks to me like they are waiting there for a specific car to come past - perhaps something else hidden further down the M2??

They're also sitting on the London Bound slip of J4. Given my usual transport to work, unmarked cars on the M2 are going to be a bit of a pain...
