Only 108 Decibels ... they obviously missed out on testing Stu's old R32GTR ... that certainly would have won the accolade for loudest in norfolk.

I'm sorry, what exactly do yo mean???

District judge Peter Veits said: “The issue of noisy cars, particularly in seaside resorts, is an issue.”

An issue is.....an issue.

Interesting that all of the MOT's passed the car. I would think that he has reasonable grounds to appeal this, although the ramifications don't bear thinking about.

Good spot Drifter.......I was just about to launch into the fuckwittery of the Judge :)

I didn't think there was actually a legal limit on noise decibels.
82db isn't much at all.

I challenged Norfolk Police on this a couple of years ago, and they came back with................nothing :) An apology from uniform is always so gratifying :D

My tuppence-worth says that "The vehicle has been modified and therefore is non compliant and as such an MOT failure" how bad would that be?
