I was at a friends house and a police officer pulled up next to me, i was at this point sh1ting it as i thought he was going to have me for speeding or something, but he got out his car and asked my details etc, he said that a blue 300ZX had just been stolen, he didn't tell me any details apart from that it came up on his computer as a "blue 300ZX" with normally means the car is a import, it could also mean that it is the old 300zx (Z31) but keep you eyes out guys! I said to him as he left have fun trying and good luck, he said im not worried about finding it, im worried about trying to catch it LOL!

Hope its not JOHNWAYNE300's new car...or anyone elses for that matter but would be a shame as he just got it.

Nope i text him first of all mate, his car is on the drive at home ;)

JDM models 'should' be listed as 'fairlady'. It's the name all insurers use when distinguishing between a UK and JDM car. ANPR systems are linked to insurance databases, so I'd imagine that it wasn't a JDM car.

 

I think your friendly officer maybe looking for a UK car. I wonder if JOHNWAYNE300's car is ok? He's the only other person I know in the Bristol area with a blue one?

Isn't the police database just taken from the DVLA ? Because we all know their database is a right mess when it comes to categorising imports.

Are you complaining? If it was your car that had been stolen, I am sure you'd want the police to be doing everything they can to try and find it and if that means pulling every UK Z32 over they see and checking it, then that's a good thing surely.

 

You're all legal, so not sure what the problem is?

 

People always seem to moan when the police aren't seen to be doing enough, and when they do, people moan about that also. Fail/Fail situation.
