Hardly a winner in the good driver category are they?
That's true, but I think the point being well made is how do you spot 'that type' versus the innocent buyer who just wants to buy a car cheaply, perhaps to fix and use?
I mean, what are 'they'? Black? White? Tall? Fat? Disabled? Male? Female? Old? Young?
Down that path there lies danger...0 -

There's nothing you can say really, I know exactly the sort that do this, typically they register friends/family cars or even a whole fleet of illegal minicab's to a false or abandoned address, but one can't say anything without the do-gooders labelling you as some neo-nazi and the authorities won't do anything because it costs too much to track them down. They're not migrants either, their great great grand parents maybe, but they themselves are UK citizens.“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

So not migrants, just brown British people that own taxis. Much clearer now.0
