Iain, I agree whole heartedly.... Obviously being Sams other half I know exactly how hard she is training for this, as is Kaz.....in the Gym and pounding the streets in wind and rain and through the upcoming winter too ! I am completely dismayed and pretty disgusted at the lack of interest from such a so called " family and friendly" club ! Even more so by some of the senior members within the club , especially when you think of what Kaz has done for the SIDC ! All I can say is big up yourselves girls, good for you and you will have massive support and I take my hat off to you both ..... P!55 poor , completely P!55 poor !!!

Unless you was one of the many kids he fiddled with... more like sicko not jacko Peoples reactions make me laugh, its as if they knew him Doubt anyone knew the real wacko.....

Great to see you post Si, Looks like a wicked trip, well donwe on the recovery.........good on ya.. Long time no speak...hope all well... I touch goats Dan

Lol if thats me.....that sounds so wrong...Dan and Dec ps congrats to you both, hope your half as happy as I am

Hi David, hope all is well.. long time no speak ... Well a lot of people make mistake of sending an appeal and because they hear nothing they believe it is done and dusted......Not so... I believe they will write if your fine has be overturned, however I am not so sure they do if it hasnt...at least thats what I hear Of course if it fails and goes on you can always file for a Stat Dec` , but you again must have good reason, and simply the reason for an infalted fine being ignorance is not one I am afraid

This is straight off the Maidstone council website.....The Authority in question I believe... You can look in numerous places on web and all pretty much same thing....they will write to vehicle owner and if you choose to ignore or not name driver...the buck will stop with you.... Read the Due Process........ PS I am a Certificated Bailiff and I have over 300 files issued by Northampton for parking offences.....Warrants to remove goods or collect...so it will be a massive fine or your vehicle or possessions are going plus more charges.... But hey what do I know...dont pay it...crack on...more work for me and my friends ;-) Please Read : The Recovery Procedure 1991 Road Traffic Act Stage 1 A Parking Attendant issues the PENALTY CHARGE NOTICE (PCN). The Charge is £60.00 but if paid within 14 days the discounted amount of £30.00 will be accepted. You may alternatively make an appeal to the Local Authority. Stage 2 If no payment or representations are received after 14 days a DVLA enquiry is submitted to identify the registered keeper of the vehicle. The Charge is £60.00 and no discount is applicable. Stage 3 If no representations or payment is received after the 28th day a NOTICE TO OWNER (NTO) is sent to the registered keeper. The charge is £60.00 and no discount is applicable. Stage 4 If no payment or representation is received after 38 days from the NTO a CHARGE CERTIFICATE is sent to the registered keeper. The Charge is increased to £90.00 and no discount is applicable. Stage 5 If no payment is received after 21 days from the Charge Certificate a request to register the PCN as a debt is made to the TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT CENTRE (TEC) at Northampton County Court. Stage 6 The TEC will send notification that the PCN is registered as a debt. Within seven days of receipt of this notification, an ORDER FOR RECOVERY of unpaid Penalty Charge is sent to the registered keeper. A STATUTORY DECLARATION FORM is enclosed. The Charge includes the court registration fee of £5.00. The Charge is now £95.00. Stage 7 If no payment or Statutory Declaration is received after 38 days from the ORDER FOR RECOVERY a request to issue a WARRANT OF EXECUTION is made to the TEC. Note: This is NOT a County Court Judgement (CCJ). Stage 8 The TEC will send notification to the Local Authority that Warrants may be served. Within 7 days of receipt of this notification a WARRANT OF EXECUTION is printed. The Charge is now £95.00. Stage 9 Warrants are passed to COMMERCIAL COLLECTION SERVICES (Certificated Bailiffs). Representations & Appeals The Local Authorities regard any queries received before stage 3 as an Appeal. After Stage 3 any queries regarding the PCN must be made as a formal REPRESENTION. The list of acceptable REPRESENTATIONS are sent with the NTO. They are: I was not the owner of the vehicle at the time of the contravention because. I sold the vehicle before that date. I bought the vehicle after that date. I never owned the vehicle The contravention did not occur. The vehicle had been taken without my consent. The Traffic order was invalid. We are a vehicle hire firm and have supplied details. The Penalty charge exceeded the relevant amount. The Road Traffic Act 1991 sets out only six grounds on which you may object the Penalty Charge Notice. We are not obliged to consider any other circumstances. The appellant will be sent either a NOTICE OF ACCEPTANCE or a NOTICE OF REJECTION, depending on the decision. If the appellant is unhappy with the Council’s response he/she may complete an ADJUDICATION APPEALS FORM. Which will be sent out with the Notice of Rejection. The appeals form is sent to the PARKING ADJUDICTOR. This is an independent regulatory body that can also review the Council’s decisions over REPRESENTATIONS. After stage 6 the appellant can only submit a STATUTORY DECLARATION under the following grounds: I did not receive the NOTICE TO OWNER. I made REPRESENTATIONS to the local authority concerned but did not receive a Rejection notice. I appealed to the Parking Adjudicator against the local authority’s decision to reject my REPRESENTATIONS but have had no response to my appeal. Under County Court rules a STATUTORY DECLARATION can be made at any time. This can happen even while the bailiff is enforcing the warrant. The council may cancel the warrant or put it on Hold. Should the appellant not pay the full amount requested by the due date then the council will follow the recovery procedure but any lesser amount paid will be deducted from the sum due. Many warrants will show different amounts where only a part payment has been made

So if say I got a ticket from .....Hackney or Camden in London and it was a Coucil/LocalAuthority Parking fine...if I ignore and dont admit it was me then they can swing ?

So they wont take it to Court ?

So if you dont admit it like you say, then they take it further ...then what happens ?

So what about wardens for local authorities

Err who does a Traffic Warden issue tickets for then ?????

Lcal Authority will probably pursue issue via Northampton...the Court for RTA fines...issue a Warrant and send a Bailiff to levy on your goods after the fine increases and they have gone through the due process !....IIRC

I am sorry but that is possibly the worst advise I have ever heard .......in my experience of RTA fines for local authorities that wont wash..... Still when your fine is over £600 with a Bailiff knockin ` your door and seizing your car, tell them that you lent car to someone else

Cant believe one of the big ones has fallen..... rc bust

Feel for you there, Looks pretty bad............. Seems strange that if they did that to your first car while they were there and bein` asses why they did not do the Clio inches behind it ???

If you want a " chatter " noise look at this thread..... blanking plate thread...

As stated, my STI 8 made the " chirpy" noise.....dont they have a vf35??

I think the noise you refer to is wastegate chatter................ I had a sort of chatter, which was very loud on my sti8 but that was with an induction/cold air kit and fmic and a screamer pipe that was fabricated and having an external wastegate and the one on the turbo closed off.......as well as on my evo 8......I believe it was the air trying to go back through the turbo between gear changes, some say not particularly good for the turbo as it can cause turbo to stall and damage it..........I may be wrong of course as this is just my understanding of it.......

Its just a public front....

Alot of import models fell into the PLG bracket on the log book, this is not affected by the tax hike as the hike is in relation to co2 emmissions....I think Some cars that came in in 2005 are still on log book as PLG and will not be affected by hike, so I believe and have read on many forums, it appears even the dvla are not even 100 percent sure as to what is going on as I found out when I called them about my GTR 33 Skyline.... imported in 2007 !! as a PLG....cheap tax ! Some guys on the MLR were having log books with PLG on 05 imported cars and some were having co2 emmissions on 03 cars so it s all a bit screwed up .... Was gonna add keep looking as there are x reg pre 2001 march cars out there if your after a bug eye...

You found the Tracker then ....

So a fair few of the snet boys and mlr are all no cluers then I guess.........as they seem to run fine as well ? Guess my 3 cars have been lucky and Mark Shead does clearly not know what he is doing........... I shall say no more as clearly I am wrong lol... off to drive my car before it expoldes in a ball of flames

Well I have had no issues with what Mark Shead has done with my cars, Anyway I guess your experience is what counts emoe Maybe you would forward me some of your race experience achievements ? cant wait
