When I see that car I wonder what went wrong in the owner's life that led them to think "That's it... that's the car I want to drive around in."
On the other hand could they have thought. Cars are expensive but I need one to get from A to B and this one is cheap?
Well they're definitely cheaper than they are inexpensive. Not that I give a hoot about what they actually thought, it was a forum one liner. It's not worth you quoting, let alone me responding. I don't know why I am!!
I thought the part of the purpose of forums was debate.

Silly me.
No Len...........you mustn't debate 'anything' with Jimmy! I've had my wrists slapped too for having the temerity to do so.
Nothing wrong with French cars! They maybe rattling tin cans, but they're so much fun to drive. Examples being the Renault 5 GTT, Clio Williams, and any RenaultSport Clio/Megane/Twingo model, plus the old Peugeot 205 and 106 GTi models, and Citroen Saxo VTS.
All Chelsea Tractors, no need for them at all, buy a fecking people carrier not a great big tank that would kill someone if you hit them at 10mph that you cannot even park beacuse you have no idea how to drive a vehicle that size you tw*t. People who buy these cars buy them for one reason, look at me & how well I am doing, do you know how much this car costs?
Hate hate hate any kind of chav car - ie souped up Nova's etc etc. Especially people who put Recaro bucket seats and full race harnesses etc in the car, along with motorsport dials, gear stick and metal pedals. You are driving round the Dartford one way system, not bloody Silverstone at 200mph.
At the weekend, someone pulled up alongside my Dads 911 4S and utterly wheelspun and cut him up before storming off down the road (until he was stopped at the red 500 yards down).
The point is that if I was sat in my missus Peugeot for example, would he have done that? No probably not. He was in a bloody Corsa for crying out loud, but was trying to make a point. Meanwhile, my Dad wouldnt care if a Mclaren or a Hyundai pulled alongside him, and wouldnt feel any need to drag race. So why is it that the crappier the car, the more the driver seems to want to make a point?
I will never buy a German Car - The companies are perfectly respectable now but had sorry histories in WW2 and that is part of their heritage in my books. In the absence of proper English cars I tend to go Italian.
Nissan Micra's are awful. I once went to a car hire co who had f***d up my reservation and only had an old Micra in the yard. I ended up driving along the M4 to Wales in the pouring rain with trucks thundering past in a vehicle that made me very aware that I was basically sitting in a tin can with my knees under my chin. Terrifying.

Had an old 205 GT which was tremedous fun - like a motorised roller skate with all the protection of an egg box. Also had a Citroen XM. Dreadful, dreadful, dreadful car. G 929 BJB, I still hate you.
I hate standard Porsche's. The Boxter etc. They look like hairdresser's cars. I can't understand why anyone with that sort of money would want to drive one. I'd rather have a Lotus Elise, and they are pretty terrible looking too.
The Porsche is your standard middle-aged crisis car, for sure.

Any modern big German car with those incredibly bright headlights. More than once I have had to pull over to let one pass because the reflection in my mirrors was causing me actual pain!. Sometimes in daylight!

I love this, can I just add, I am doing very well at the moment and so last week picked up my new Mercedes C180 AMG Sports in Addicks Red, if that makes me a twat I am a very happy one! The headlights are incredibly bright as well, sorry Red_in_SE8.....

Addickted, TBH no they just put flash mats and body kit etc, not sure its any quicker but certainly quick enough for me! Saga your right, should have read the post, gave me the opportunity to show off about my new car though!

Yeah - I think you picked the wrong quote to be honest. There was one about German cars and bright lights. ;-)
When we had all the snow and cars could not get up shooters hill my Chelsea tractor got me up it and enabled me to collect my children safely and back home again while haters in there silly cars struggled leaving there children stranded at the school, but if that makes me a show off twat then so be it.

I used to live in Dartford....you are right a bunch of jokers going around that one way system.

You should get a German car mate, mine's got an anti glare rear view mirror!

gods honest on powells life
All academic anyway as she's texted me to say she's arrived!
BTW, You're not a rabbit are you? :-)
SoundAs - let it go. To get so wound up in the first place was silly. To still be whingeing two months later is more than a little sad.
