Seemed to be someone who liked to drive quick on the motorway in a Silver Vauxhall People carrier wearing a red Ferrari polo shirt.
Anyone from here?
OT: Car Nation: Any Vauxhall drivers from here feature?

Heh-heh...I'm glad I wasn't the only person who thought that. The similarity was scary. Tim?

It looked frighteningly like Tim Kemp to me....
Heh.
Me and Dan were talking about that on MSN as we were watching it.

Tim?
And while they named others, they couldn't name him, because. A) Copper was also called Tim b)He was consistently breaking the speed limits on camera, instead of just talking about it. "Oh come on, you made me brake, oh here we go down to 75", that kind of thing.
"I never do less than 90 if I can help it" was the one that immediatley made think of Tim. Been about 3-4 years since I've last seen him, and he was in the Volvo that day.
Kind of spooky wasn't it.
I've got a silver Zafira GSi but I don't think I could ever bring myself to buy a Ferrari polo shirt, so it wasn't me...
Everybody reckons it was Tim Kemp.
I can't remember anyone in a Zafira. I remember one bloke constantly whingeing at people doing 80-85mph when he wanted to go faster, but they had him on camera and he definitely didn't look or sound like Tim. I'm sure I'd have noticed if they had him on camera - was the Zaf man on camera or not?

Yet they constantly named and showed the company name of the scaffolder with the phone perma-clamped to his ear.
Hmm true. And he even knew it was wrong "need to get one of the Handsfrees I reckon", and his missus had one in the pickup thing.
Yep. Not sure if it was Zaf, or one of the other Vaux people carrier types, silver. Was on quite a bit.
As someone who's cruised a Zafira for many hours at the redline in top I'd like to formally say it wasn't me...
My old Zafira was silver, current one is red. Hoping next one will be blue, or black, but /she/ chooses the colour....
Do you own a Ferrari Polo shirt?
I dare you to ask him how many times he's been asked that.
