92mph is nothing on a motorway to be fair.
Any background info? Very hard for me to side with the owner.

what a sneaky fucker, he set him up nicely, what connections does he have with the tracking company, the speed was low enough considering the car.

I'd rather pay the premium and drive how I want rather than be monitored
