right they say that was shocking, the guy in the 106 stopping and asking what he's filming for.
If someone was filming me and i was the only car i'd stop and ask why he was filming.
If he answered back and said im doing it for a news programme id be like - fair enouigh watch this burnout! lol joking. i'd be alright.
But ifhe didnt answer i'd be like fuck you too mate im only asking.
esit - although the bit i just saw i wouldnt be sad enough to sog back and try lamp him

Thing is, Inside out have done the crusing thing before... They're always doing the documentaries on cruising...
Problem is 'They want to try to make it look bad, and dangerous' and they're really struggling... Most footage was of people driving calmly, slowly, and parked up... no dangerous driving.
Ok so 1 BMW driving a bit like a plank... big deal. Even the road with the houses on, they were all going past very sedately.
When inside out did one about the guildford cruises or something a few years back they tried doing cross links into joy riding and people dying in drink driver accidents...

haha! Yeh I got done by those bastards when I had my corsa. I had a Corsa nothing declared, and the police sent all my info off to my insurer saying I had wheels etc etc... and then I got a letter from my insurance a few months later saying 'We need to speak to you urgently' (i.e. up the premium / insurance invalid' - I just changed insurers and sold the car.

very interesting stuff.. it is a sad fact that everyone with a modded car gets stereotyped because of a few nob-end chav's that think it's funny to shout abuse at people.

tbh some people in modified cars do act like idiots and ruin it for every other innocent ''cruiser''.
