GreyKnight Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 Holy Cr*p! I don't know the poor chap, but feel for him none the less. What in god's name is this world coming to!? That says to me that if you're ever in doubt about the intentions of suspicious drivers or pedestrians just burn the hell out of there! I'd even go as far as ignorning red lights if I thought that kind of thing might happen to me! Scum, should be lined up and shot (and I'd happily volunteer to do it..)

simon_prickett Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 Really sorry to hear all this... I know Richard quite well from track days and have met his other half etc. It was this sort of incident becoming more common that was part of my decision to part with my Impreza a few years back... I hope, but am not confident, that this sort of scum get what they deserve. Richard - get well soon mate, the car can be put right just hope you're OK. Makes my current troubles (Alfa threw the cam belt, having top end rebuild) look like nothing. Simon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyM Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 I read that story at the weekend, how dis-heartening. I had a nova pull up next to me in the s160 pointing at my front wheel in exactly the same way after a late evening at work on a friday night.......... i chose to turn up my stereo (i had a pioneer tube and kenwood speakers, so it was worth it!)..... But it left me wondering..... if i had reacted, i could have been in Mr G's wellies... i felt quite down on Sunday reflecting upon that thought..... My Focus RS locks the doors when i pull away from standstill now.... not really relevant to this thread, but it makes you feel better when the locks click as you pull away....

Scott_Mac Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 My doors are always locked in my car - i open and re-lock the drivers door as i get in and open the pax door from the inside. It ain't worth the risk - a tad irritating if the door closes with the keys in the ignition though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(not wishing to turn this thread into a joke section, though). Mr G - How are you doing ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
