zetecmk2 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 hi peeps, i was in the bp at felbridge tonight when i noticed a kid about 12/13 watching me in my car, my car gets alot of attention but this was diffrent! the kid just stared and i could see him in the o/s door mirror, then he stood at the back for 30 seconds or so, then went round the n/s and stared! i allways have people look and comments made, most kids ask what it is etc,you know what i mean, youve got osf's! im not one to generalize as ive had a mohican for 25 yrs and hate assumptions being made, but, this kid looked like a pikey!! slicked 50's hair and bad clothes etc (hard to put into words, now im trying to write) he got into a burgundy 4x4 (didnt really see the driver) and they followed me for about 5 miles! i booted it off a roundabout and lost them, saw them heading towards horley (a23, merstham 10 mins, pikey central) dont know if the recent thefts and sightings have made me paranoid, but it just didnt seem right!! most kids will talk to you way before that long etc, anyway, the reg was p982 tgj, could someone check this reg? daggle? anyone?
zetecmk2 Posted March 7, 2008 Author Report Posted March 7, 2008 looked like a four-trak? not really into 4x4s, too busy trying to get the reg all backward and vibrating in my mirror!
Perywinkle Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 sounds like that pikey mary that was sniffing round other peoples cars.
escortmad79 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 P982TGJ is showing up as a red 1997 Nissan Patrol GR SE TD, tax is due at the end of the month Did it look like this one?
zetecmk2 Posted March 8, 2008 Author Report Posted March 8, 2008 something like that, maybe im just paranoid
Savvi Posted March 8, 2008 Report Posted March 8, 2008 Still worth Jo giving the details to the Police ? If its a genuine driver i'm sure they wouldn't mind.
NHR115 Posted March 8, 2008 Report Posted March 8, 2008 not showing any insurance Cant the police get involved if he's driving without insurance. Then they might just find out other things thats he's illegally involved in (if he is)
escortmad79 Posted March 8, 2008 Report Posted March 8, 2008 Jo said someone else had noted down the reg of a burgandy 4x4 acting suspiciously but hadn't given her the details
FredTransit Posted March 8, 2008 Report Posted March 8, 2008 I think you did the right thing being paranoid, I would be in your situation. Pass the details on to the police, if the owner is law abiding he's got nothing to hide.
kev16v Posted March 8, 2008 Report Posted March 8, 2008 he might be on trade insurance an that does not show up on the computor ive beeen stopped a few times by the police as they thought i had no insurance but ive got traders so they allways let me go
dommo1 Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 Still worth Jo giving the details to the Police ? If its a genuine driver i'm sure they wouldn't mind. I no people are worried about there cars but you cant ring the police and give peoples registrations just because they look at you or seem to be driving down the same road as you this is an shocking quote plus the police will probably tell you not to waste there time
dommo1 Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 whats pikey central about Merstham ?You can always tell the worst pikeys in merstham they walk round with there dealer boots on

I no people are worried about there cars but you cant ring the police and give peoples registrations just because they look at you or seem to be driving down the same road as you this is an shocking quote plus the police will probably tell you not to waste there time I understand what your saying but Jo has spoke to the Police and they want info ? So if it was me i would tell the Police that the car has followed me, it fits a describtion similar to a vehicle seen hanging around other similar cars and that quite a few of these cars have been stolen. He already said it took a while to get him off his tail. Or he could leave it and find in 3 months and another 3 stolen cars time that it was the vehicle linked to the thiefs ?
zetecmk2 Posted March 9, 2008 Author Report Posted March 9, 2008 thats exactly what i think, dont wanna ignore it but dont want to post up the reg of every burgundy 4x4 that is behind me! but even without attention drawn to 4x4s, the whole event seemed a bit strange! but its not illegal to look at cars!
Slammed Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 hi jo, that has happened to my dads mk1 tina, on the drive last week! and im down south! evryone needs to be careful thats why i am having doubts about my first osf!
dommo1 Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 Dont buy yourself a 4x4 then otherwise your be a prime suspect
dommo1 Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 ha ha ha ha ha Any of ya cuzons bruv took any motors round your way
Savvi Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 i got dealers So have i .............. and if i drove a red 4x4 and got stopped i'd be p***ed off. Having said that if i'd spent 2 or 3 years restoring or modding my Old Skol Ford and it got nicked i'd be really pis**ed off. I've a couple of cars nicked over the years 1 being a low milage 4x4 sierra which i heard being taken ............. luckly got it back (or not so lucky if you think that way) it makes your heart sink as low as it can be and the true words of "gutted" comes to mind. We also got burgled at home and we never felt safe again so eventually moved. So all joking apart if you want to make light of someone elses misery that's fine, only i haven't heard any of the lads whose cars have already gone missing laughing !!! As said before i would personally report it regardless. P.s No offence mean't to anyone in paticular just my point of view through bad experiance.

No ones laughing about the motors gone missing the laughing bit about it is someone wrote merstham pikey central and when you live there and your not a pikey but where dealer boots there is some humour in that
Savvi Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 Ok i'm a "plonker" and "got it wrong again" I know you have to keep spirits up through these things but it did seem, to someone who lives away from the area, that fun was being made of a serious thread. I'll get my coat !!!
