Some ****** Was Taking Pictures Of My Car

Post by BLOODUK »

I was on the phone to the doctors sorting out some medical things and noticed a Gormless spotty teenager with glasses taking Camera phone shots of my mr2, I thought id just finish my phone call and see whats going on.

Went outside and the guy was gone, i was none to pleased
perhaps he was just sending pics to his friends thats cool but
if it ends up on something like Barryworld ill find that
guy and smash his face in as he looked to be local.

But is owning an unusual and good looking car not what part of this is all about? At the end of the day, as lonag as all he did was take a pic, then it shouldn't be a problem IMO.

You never know, he could be a spotter for a Jap car mag ;)

Happens to me and the GTR quite regularly mate :D
Only couple weeks ago came back to the car and a group of six teenagers were standing round it all snapping away - my heart sunk as I thought they were trying to lever off the badges, but when I got closer I realised they were just taking close ups of them!

Definitely a complement! :D

tonigmr2 hehe lucky i dont trust chavs, thing is though we are only human
and when we dont know why someone is doing it the worst thought comes to mind first.


Ive never seen anybody take a photo of my car before, so its no wonder
i was little nerved


edit : I was parked outside a friends house the other day and this chavvy kid comes out the door, and says Hey Nice car m8, how fast does it go... and i mentioned over 250BHP and his eyes just lit up.

Didnt think chavs smiled :P :P

i dont mind so much when im in town or in a traffic jam or something, but to do this on your drive or outside your house is another matter.
for all you know he may be taking pics for nasty reasons, ie, to prep to steal the bu88er!! (but as he was a youngen, youll be fine). sorry to put the shi**ers up you, but this could be a reason!

i had the classic "photo" taken of the car a while back. was stuck on the m25 in a traffic jam, and a 2 young ladies and there kids were in the car! they all got there camera phones out and took pics of the car as we were very slowly moving along. one of the kids had his face glued to the window looking at me and my car!! and one of the ladies waved and took more pics!!
also one of the kids opened the window and shouted out "nice ferrari mate"! i couldnt shout of the truth, so i just nodded!

MAN WAS I PROUD THAT DAY!
