    Default $500K Mclaren MP4-12 Roadster seized by police.



    And i was going to write a review on it too today.

    No i was not driving it.....im 50, owner is 45.

    But 0-100 certainly is less than 3 seconds, brakes and handling are good too (on paper).

    Mrs tells me that with my messed up hair and smile i looked guilty of having just had sex with a super model and deserved a big slap for it.

    Owner will rebook the Rego in 30 days time when he gets it back.

    There was a funny one down my way a while ago.....you can hire Ferrari's etc down here. A guy did just that, hooned, got caught, car was seized. His rental contract stated X amount of dollars per day for non return/late return of car......which was confiscated for 30 days

    Ouch.

    This guy has a prestige car yard, was booked in for rego today and forgot to throw his trader plates on it that night.

    Not that it would have made that much difference to the outcome.....

    Found it They were very lucky the police were nice about it and gave it back otherwise a 30K rental bill.

    The only way I would ever 'travel' in a car like that is if it was on the back of Tilt Tray because the temptation to 'Pedal the Metal' if I was driving would be tooooo great to resist.
    I stand unequivicably behind everything I say , I just dont ever remember saying it !!
