    2 of the best & one of the worst

    days of my life

    1) day i got to drive my first mk4 r32 at work and fell in love

    2) day i got told by my service advisers that they are going to call me the no.1 tech as they've never seen someone with some much passion & knowlage for vw like me before, which made me pritty happy

    3) then today i lost my licence, i went out on a road test in a mk4 1.6L golf when a unmarked cop car pulled me over ( i was doing nothing wrong or stuiped at all ) & started being a smart as to me & trying to make me confess to not having my seat belt on when i had it on the whole time, he ended up doing me for not having my licence on me (was in my toolbox back at work)
    so i have offically lost all respect for these police



    well that was my story
    hows your week been?

    Oh man....how long have you lost your license for?
    Thats really, really harsh. Is there anyway you can appeal it?

    Glad to hear you're going well at work!
    Its nice to get praise if you work hard, even better to get recognition. Well done

    I would take that to court on the basis that the licence is required for work purposes and he was a tool. Tell them he threatened you if you did not confess etc etc, spin a yarn - it may work.

    I had a 1.6 MKIV, they are surprisingly nippy!

    Hope it works out.

    I thought you had a day to supply your drivers licence to the local police station if you don't have it on you at the time.

    that's rough. how long did you lose it for? i always thought that if you got caught without carrying your licence that you had an amount of time (24 hours?) to go down to the station and show them. :S edit: sounds like it

    here's how my week is going...





    jumped out of those trees onto the road about 5m in front of my car, in a 100 zone. there was a car coming the other direction, so couldn't swerve. had to drag his fat a** off the road. only cosmetic damage thankfully. could have been worse i guess.

    dude, you can't seriously have lost ur licence for not having it on you??

    i think when your on opens you have a period of time to present it to the cop shop. maybe it's a different story if ur on your P's, but surely it's not a loss-of-licence offence.

    or did you mean you had "lost" (or couldn't find) ur licence when you went for the test drive and thus went without it??

    I can sympathise with you dude. Lost my license for a month a couple of weeks ago. It was my fault and all. It was torture, but such is life. Suck it up and move on I say and stay positive.

    Ouch poor mk2.
