Did the reporter get confused and think it was the RS6 (which did have 5L V10 engine in it).

9 Years, the scrote deserved it, if they routinely banged up burglers and car thieves for 10 years a time, they might actually stop doing it  :happy2:

There does not appear to be any evidence that the 185mph was ever done , is there ?

Since when did the press let facts get in the way of a good story?
Sideways yo!

The helicopter footage is good, you can see the heat from the exhaust gases, looks like flames coming out of the back, as he guns it as he does the U turn on to the motorway.

Incredible the detail that the thermal cmareas can pick up :happy2:

The wheels were glowing just as bright as what was coming out of the exhaust too!!  :surprised:

They said on the news last night that the ground units couldn't get near it and the helicopter struggled too!!  :scared:

Only 2 in the UK?


My god. The press love these 'facts' to jump up their stories. Deserves more than 9 years if you ask me. All the misery and money they cost hard working people is worth more than 9 years which he will see 4 and a half at best. sh*t country :fighting:
