So heading down to Cornwall a week last Friday from Sheffield in my chipped l322 diesel( not your average l322)
Going via some 50mph zone for ages and I have an l322 ( black about a 2006 plate I think) 2 cars in front of me, driving like a #### hogging 2 lanes.

So just before the 50 zone ends (150meter or so)and I decide to floor it because I'm running late. So I'm now foot to the floor just about to pass the black Range Rover and #### me ( Captain Kirk must have been at the helm of it, because it snorted into life picked its nose up and hit warp factor 9)

It left me for absolute dead! I reckon I was pulling 95mph and it was doing 150mph

Wow!

Oh that's rite!
The police never spead! Do they? ( worst speeders on the motorway are the PLOD) putting blue lights on and doing 140 so they can get to the next services for a cup of tea!

Yep they are always at it, and kill a fair few every year in so doing, I've caught a couple and had them banned.
 
I was nearly killed about 15 years ago on the M1 at Wakefield by a cop car passing me at ( over 150mph) no blue lights, no siren, I pulled in at the next services to calm down and the bastards were sat having a pot of tea behind the counter!

The only thing that stopped me going mental with them, was that I was going to a job interview and I didn't want to be late!

I did make a telephone complaint the next day and was assured it had been dealt with?

( any how I got the job)

Must have a petrol one, not an agricultural one :D
 
If it was a 2006 then it has the baby 4.2 V8 supercharged lump, only 400BHP

The later 2010 model has the 5.0 V8 supercharged that is well over 500 BHP

Both are rather nippy lol

Lol

Tell you what! If I only did a few thousand miles each year in the Range Rover instead of the 12 to 14 k in my diesel.
"I would go out and buy one ASAP after seeing how quick it was":)
 
The TDV8 would wee on my 4.4 M62, I took mine up to, well quite fast once, damn thing started to break up on re entry, indicator / side light popped out, flapped around bashing against the wing for a bit then vaporised, never again!:mad:
