Well spotted, and did they get paid for the ad?

oh dear, they could have used a normal car...no doubt the site editor is a flashy git and took a snap of his car to illustrate his point. My mate always used to swear by AC Schnitzer alloys, he said they couldn't clamp them... not sure how much truth there is in that, maybe the fact they were so large!

Hahah... nicely spotted!

Did you know, that you can legally remove a clamp as long as you don't damage it, and if you return it to the owner...

He he, id love to do that.

Handing back the clamp to the owner, sounds good to me.

if you have xxx/50 or above/xx tyres, just let them down, remove clamp, pump tyre up and b***er off leaving the poor little traffic warden scratching his unsurprisingly empty head

i always keep a pump in my car after it happened to my dad. hes got a set of 205/70/v14 's on his merc 500sel, got clamped on holiday, let the tyre down, rolled out of the clamp, pumped her back up and left. took photos of the clamp not being damage and not heard a dicky bird since

great fun :lol: :lol: :lol:
