I don’t get to contribute to this area often as nearest to a super car I have is a modal

but opps hope it’s no one on here and fair play he or she is using it 😀😀😀😀

such a cool car, still looks amazing in that shot. does not say anything about dangerous driving, so probably/hopefully ok.

I hope the usual argumentative crowd does not find this, otherwise we will have a multipage argument about what is and what is not acceptable - sometimes fun to read, but mostly just tedious

“This (beautiful) Ferrari F40 was stopped near Bangor earlier after clocking up speeds of up to 124mph. Yes, you read that right, 124mph.”

124mph really isn't that fast on that kind of road, would anyone actually be shocked at that speed and have to re-read the number lol

Not the smartest idea to do those sorts of speeds, but yeah, it's not exactly shocking. Only reason it gets reported is because of the type of car. At some point he probably had to pull over to let Gareth the photocopier salesman past in his 320d anyway...

Ha! Ha! Not forgetting Mick in the Merc Sprinter who's not far behind Gareth ,

Sounds like the police have prejudiced the case by declaring the driver guilty

In fairness, it is not like there will be a jury trial

Yeah. Let’s go with that. Jesus.

I got caught doing 100 on that road in my 1.4 diesel polo. Didn't make the papers sadly.

[mwstewart]

Lovely.

I think those cars should be exempt from speed limit.

[FezSpider]

No biggy, shame he got caught.
More important things going on..

Me too. They should get a ticket, but no fine or points.

In Italy they'd get a police escort, surely that would be the safest option here
