    This really annoys me. I mean fair enough charging recovery and storage for uninsured cars - charge as much as you like/as possible for all I care, but your car gets nicked so you effectively get fined £200 for the privelege of getting your own car back? You've no choice in the matter so either its a fine or a fee for the police doing their job!


    We didn't pay it in the end although it took us a week to get the car back untill the inspector agreed to wipe the charge. I refused to pay it, why should i pay £200 quid for the privellage of having my car nicked. I suppose this is the way they make money from people and i fully understand for uninsured drivers and those who are breaking the law but to me paying £200 is just adding insult to injury.

    Is that a useful post according to your rules, or are you just looking to provoke a reaction from him?

    It is a post directed at Inactive where has tried to justify himself in one post, when dozens of his others are designed to condem the op.

    Tell you what lets call a truce to this??

    Understand?

    Post usefull advice and do not condem or "gang up" on anyone and all will run smoothly. Oh, and you might want to try try not dragging me into any threads that you have usurped.

    I didn't " condemn " the OP, I have gave a different opinion on the matter, that's all.

    And therefore nothing to do with what the OP asked.

    You even tried to make your own rules up against such conduct and can't keep to them.

    By the way where did they go?
