I just remembered back to my high school days....

When we were in year 11 we had a nice police man come in to see us about taking drugs, drinking and driving.

This is what he told us.

If you are the driver and you are having a few drinks we would prefer you to have a pipe than drink and drive. We were quite suprised this is what he said but its what he said.

Another thing he said is also to get out of your car immediatly and greet the police officer if you are pulled over be it for some thing you have done wrong or havn't done wrong.

Another tip is to get out the car and greet the police officer.

He said if you sit in the car and have been pulled over for something you have done wrong they ask you to step out of the car any how, so it only makes matters worse + they cannot see what you are holding or doing in the car.

Possibly holding a gun who knows he said.

A police officer has never asked me to step out of the car... I only stayed inside the car twice after having been pulled over (have been pulled over 9 times, and 9 times for doing nothing illegal), and here in NSW, they don't ask you to step out... My tip is to get out of the car, and give them the

"Hi there, I'm (insert name here), whats your name officer"

throws 'em right off, and makes you a name, not a rego number... Be a person, not a number...

Anyways, it has aleays been said that you should gte out of the car immediately so you are standing on level ground, and the cop isn't a dominant figure standing over you....

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
