well then, after driving and riding some pretty powerful machines over the last 35 years, I've just got my first speeding ticket .......... and it's in a Jimny :blink: that's pretty ironic apparently I was photographed doing 35 mph in a 30 mph.

Suppose I should be pleased that the notice wasn't for going through a red light ......... as I remember making a split second decision not to try out my ABS and have some chav rear end me, as the lights changed

I won't let the b*st**ds get me down :( that's the wife's job :P

adios ......... the Jimny Speeding Terrorist :evil:

Or no points, £95 and a "re-training" day in Thames Valley Police area if you are not going too fast.

Oooh, I do hope I'm offered "re-training"
.... I promise to nod affirmatively at the appropriate and correct time
..... and to learn through my past transgressions
....... and it's only going to cost me an extra £35
......... that''s only 1 more bottle for the shareholders meeting
.......... best stop now while I'm sincere and remorseful, I must ignore the voices :evil:

I have chosen to be reprogrammed, so that I may re-enter society as a worthwhile and conforming member of the collective.

I opted for a speed awareness course for £84 and no points

as opposed to a fixed £60 fine and 3 points

that was an expensive 5 mph :S

quite looking forward to the course as since I've had the Jimny I've forgotten what speed is,
hopefully the course can enlighten me :evil:
