[bobafett]

Got me thinking with your motoring experience, what have you learnt over the years and what are your motoring commandments? I will probably think of more, but for know I have a few!

Thou shalt not not touch or even consider another Matte painted car
Thou shalt not not wrap a car again
Thou shalt not not buy French
Thou shalt ignore the above if its a 182 Trophy or RS200 Cup
Thou shalt not have pops and bangs that harm thy neighbour
Honor thy normally aspirated V8
Thou Shalt not buy budget tyres

What have you got!

Thou should never treat another mans car as your own.
Thou sould never pass by, on the road , a woman driver in distress

Thou should always take the path of virtue and never succumb to temptation by comprehensively leaving the boy racer in the chavved-up Corsa choking on your dust.
(even though verily he may deserve it)

 

[James Copeland]

Treat every other road user as a real idiot.

Aww, why not?

 

[bobafett]

Thou shall give wide berth to cars with hats on thy parcel shelf.

 

[ChrisHGTV]

Thou shall not curse when a “30 minute job, I enjoy doing it” takes all day and renders your wife’s car undriveable in the meantime (Abarth 500 clutch master cylinder)

Thou shall not curse modern “improvements” in car design that reveal themselves to be anything but (eg bleed nipples replaced by a half pull out/push in/bleed hose connection - related to above,)

Thou shall endeavour to enjoy better roads across the Channel, and partake of the wondrous service stations thereby presented

Thou shall never tire of the smell of Castrol R on a summers day

 

[Tonygw]

Though shall not vomit uncontrollably onto your dash board or passenger seat when a middle age man in tight lycra on a two wheeled human power machine appears in on the horizon.. (try to vomit in a bag)


Though shall not get angry when stuck behind the two speed motor vehicle. (you know the ones that have two speeds, parked or 40mph only)

 

[ALFAitalia]

For other people....as I NEVER do this!!!....

Thought shalt have driven away from the petrol pump within 30 seconds of paying and getting back into your car when there is a queue of car waiting......punishment for doing otherwise?....DEATH!
This is not the time to spend ages putting your purse back in your bag, touching up makeup/hair, chatting to the passenger about the good looking assistant, giving snacks to children etc.....not that I'm aiming this commandment at any one particular sex or anything..... obviously!!!!!!!

 

[AMGeed]

Thou shalt never buy another black car unless you enjoy relentless cleaning.
