"Is this your car Sir" (little story from last night) - Mattcheese31 - 18-04-2013
Taking my brother to his girlfriends about 10pm last night, turning right onto the main road there is a blind upper crest to your left, check it's clear and then pull out fairly fast as cars can appear out of no-where, so . . . . as i'm pulling out i see headlights coming over the brow of the hill, i do as usual and boot it to get up to road speed so the car behind doesn't have to slow down . . . .as i get up to speed i look in my rear view, it's a cop car . . . . .
. . . .continue my journey at the speed limit for the next mile with po-po behind me, woo- woo . . .lights come on and pull me over, a WPC comes up to my window, "Is this your car Sir?" what's your name" and all that jazz . . . . . . .anyway she then says the reason i've pulled you over is because when you pulled out earlier there was clouds of smoke!!! if i was a traffic officer i would fine you for that, you need to go and get that fixed right away sir" . . 
. . . . i tried to tell her a few times that when she had come over that blind crest i had to accelerate hard and that's what old diesels do but she kept cutting me off and saying i need to go get it fixed . . . .
. . . . . . .tbf she was then asking where i was going and said i was too kind when i told her i was taking my brother to his girlfriends . . . so not too bad too suppose, anyway should i get the car "fixed" or not then??? . . .. .

Fix it. it's not smoking enough if they could still see you.
RE: "Is this our car Sir" (little story from last night) - Toms306 - 18-04-2013
Definitely needs fixing..........with a bigger turbo, if its smoking you don't have enough boost!
RE: "Is this your car Sir" (little story from last night) - Mattcheese31 - 18-04-2013
haha i made sure i pulled away slowly after she'd stopped me . .

RE: "Is this your car Sir" (little story from last night) - Mattcheese31 - 18-04-2013
we all know what they're like booting it from a standstill, i obviously don't ever do that when the Police are about usually . .
and no way i'm "fixing" her lol . . . . .just hope i don't get seen again when this TD04 goes on . .

Could of done you for excess smoke on the spot (forget the actual offence but im sure there is one) think its £60 and 3 points. Shes probably not up on the traffic offences so would do for failure to maintain an exhaust.
If that happened id just take it for an MOT emissions test and say see you in court.

Drive it properly
Just leave it mate, if it's clean on boost then it's all ok.

RE: "Is this your car Sir" (little story from last night) - ozonehostile - 18-04-2013
I got an unmarked cop car pull up next to me at work the other week for a "word about your stuck injector" haha
i coaled a bloke in london who was pretty much driving up my exhaust, he did not take kindly to a heavy coaling and i got some rather amusing abuse at the next traffic light
RE: "Is this your car Sir" (little story from last night) - Jonny81191 - 18-04-2013
Carl coaled an Aston Martin in Monaco. On the F1 track. You all lose.
RE: "Is this your car Sir" (little story from last night) - Rich306 - 18-04-2013
Lol, can't believe she wouldn't let you explain why she smoked.
RE: "Is this your car Sir" (little story from last night) - E_KEL95 - 18-04-2013

RE: "Is this your car Sir" (little story from last night) - Eeyore - 18-04-2013
nah you tried to tell her why it smoked and she wouldnt listen. no producer means you dont have to do anything about it!

"Oh for gods sakes, you can't see at night, I've been to the garage 5 times about this, apparently the ERG valve or something keeps sticking, I'm trying to get it sorted"
*RAHHHHHH* *Drop clutch* *Massive burnout with clouds of coal and tyre smoke*
That's how it should have been.

I got pulled for this last year, he was a real arse and used it as an excuse to check the whole car over. Asked me to hold it at 2000 revs so obviously I krept up slowly so it didn't smoke. He was satisfied that it was just a bit Smokey because the engine was cold (I'd only just started journey).
