And anyway, he's been driving 2 weeks, decked his car so low the law have investigated. If the wheels are scrubbing the job hasn't been done correctly. Decked cars are sorted so they DON'T scrub, so theres a high chance is a bodged job and the law have taking according action.
Get your noses out of the neds ass.
There's brown nosing, then there's sticking up for someone. And people seem to have over looked the fact that apparently the police acted like shits.
I agree it's a bit wierd that it would happen without reason, but stranger things have happened. Plus the fact that it's not the first time you've heard of something like this happening.
I'd agree with marklawton and say the best course of action is to go down to the cop shop and find out exactly what's going on.

tbh this site has ALWAYS had fairly good English concepts, and those who ignored this were ALWAYS flamed, from the begining, so other than the fact people now pay Ł12.50 for this right, does not change how the sites always acted.
I think that having a better class of English detours CS from the original "Corsa Boyracer McDonalds new Nova chav/ned" that the Corsa has. Look at the other sites and how well they have all faired.
People like reading an acceptable level of English. We've had it all, im dyslexcic, im blind, etc....
If you have issues with spelling and such, then there are so many tools on IE to aid you, so they are being lazy, hence back to the mindset of someone? If you HAVE a real issue with spelling, its nothing to be ashamed about, but then use the tools provided.
Its ALWAYS been like this here, hence why I think as a FORUM, its been successfull. You don't see Migweb, or any other well branded forum with text talk of a pre 11+ exam school leaver.

I agree, im making an assumption, and we know what good they are
But as said by someone, i've done some naughty stuff, and seen some naughty stuff with cars, but really, no-one has had their car removed without either the owner being a complete and utter goonbag, or there is actually something very wrong with the car.
I.E tyres sticking OUTSIDE the arch is illegal. Does the car (bear in mind, 2 weeks he passed, I can' see it being kitted with Irmscher and GSI gubbins), have BB4 exhaust thats hanging down, dodgy light up plate etc etc..
Going by the language used, and the way it was written, and what it was about, i'm thinking worse than good.
Police might have been ar5es, it happens all the time, but does anyone know this lad? Does he have a face full of spots and the attitude of a white gangster homie, or is he a well brought up lad who wouldn't have given attitude and had a relaxed conversation? Did he take any police numbers down to report any abuse etc???

Fucking lynch mob on the first page, if you have silly cut springs on the back your car deserves to be taken off you. Not in a million years would it go through an MOT with cut springs therefor it wouldn't be road legal. Do it properly and don't cut corners (no pun intended) maybe you'll learn a lesson out of this.

If the Guy's writing is as good as his 'home mechanics'..then the roads will be safer without his car being on there..however it seems he is just a lad fresh out of driving school and made a mistake..bit extreme to take his car..however maybe he failed the attitude test..who knows.........!!

Ye, cut springs and its your own fault tbh. If there genuine springs then get down the police station and find out why its been taken off you.
I'm sure there is a good reason though, they don't just do it for nothing

I completely agree with you Its not an excuse in any way, I am dyslexic and I always spell check my posts before I put them up and I hate it when people are lax with grammar.
I just get fed up with the mentality of some people on the site who think it is ok just to attack other people especially when they are new, I would like to see the current members trying to be accommodating to New ones and help them for at least a week before the usual lynching happens. We want new members and we want even more new Prem's so that we can do bigger and better things and things like that just don’t help

tbh, me personnally, im not that assed about grammar, the odd missed letter, the odd dodgy commar etc.. But its got to be at least semi readable.
I had an easier time reading that email that goes round with all the letters jumbled up, yet still very readable (something about first and last letter, brain makes up the rest).
But honestly, I had to re-read that 3-4 times before I could actually understand the full post

Get a fucking grip. I notice that no-one's even asked him what actually happened, just posted shite un-funny pictures. Not everyone knows how to spell and most don't know how to find/use a spell checker before that gets said.
I understood perfectly what he was saying, fair enough it could have made more sense, but I got the point. People need to stop abusing people just because they don't write like it's an English exam. If it's understandable, then fuck it, no need to be a dick.
