I have been unfortunate enough recently to have come across some of the worst drivers / cars imaginable.
Basically, they are the ones who put twinkly yellow lights round their number plates :crazy: or twinkly blue lights round their exhaust :crazy: :crazy:
Mainly BMW or nondescript hatchbacks.
They are worse than flies buzzing about on the roads. Zipping about at maximum speed.
Every time I see one it makes me want to 'barf'!
Les

There now, got that off my chest...

Don't know where you live Les but here in Sussex and i hate to say it, its YOUNG girls in small cars,they think they own the road and have no conception of distance or speed and they certainly don't know what an indicator is for.

mm - I came across one of those today - in a purple Clio :crazy: She also didn't know she had a hand brake, or a foot brake and tried holding the car - on a fairly level road on the clutch only - she was going backwards and forwards like nobody's business :mad: Fortunately - I was at her side not behind her - so I showed her good the back end of a silver SLK looked :p

Pammy, pity you didn't have a manual choke, you could have pulled it out and covered her in Blaaaaah.
 
If Pammy had a manual choke, it would already be out with her handbag hanging from it!

nah - my handbag generally lives in the boot - where it can't be seen :D

Having had one stolen once from the seat of the car while I was driving it - smashed a window while stood at lights the g*ts - I usually keep it well out of the way. So the option of going for a manual choke has no use for me - so I'd save the money for ....






a better mirror - in the sunvisor :D



what'd ya expect - bi-xenons :D ?

I have found Clio's to also be pain in the backside and yes they too appear to think they own the roads i.e. cutting up MBs in particular - on the M40 on last Sunday I was constantly getting cut up by one but the Clio was indicating to change lanes for ALL other vehilces except when it would come into my lane. Having had enough I too showed the Clio the backend of my W203 (Silver kust likes Pammy's ;) ) but before I did that I drew level with it (she gave me the w*nker ahnd gesture sign and was tryign to accelerate clear (but as the CDI has stacks of torque :D and she was not bale to get clear) I blew a kiss at her and gradually moved into her lane without even having to floor the car and gave her a taste of my her own medicine and casually acelerdated off leavig her miles behind. She flashed her healdights with fury and sounded her horn. Childish of me may be but I had had enough after she did if 5 times to me specifically...

Nissan Micra is the current weapon of choice for young and not so young inept driver around here. Often seen in utterly vile paint finishes, particularly that odd light red/brown metallic shade, they are at least easy to spot.

What clearly identifies the hopeless driver? Front and rear parking sensors.
 
did citroen get an 18 year old to design the C2 for all the boy racers who mod the saxo?? looks like they forgot them to bother thinking about what the rear of the car should like like!
 
I have experienced a C2. Never again oh the shame, ended up doing a Jeremy Clarkson. Hitting the steering wheel etc trying to get it over 150........................... Kph that is :D Never ever again and yes it was Dull Chrome. The French can make wine and cheese but alas not cars :D well not ones I can afford.
