muppets driving TVRs

[scottster]

Children, does it really bother you that much about how someone else decides to driver their car?

I'll drive my car with roof up, ear plugs in, tossing over a copy of Razzle if I like, no-on elses business surely?

[Podie]

Razzle... ooh, nasty...

[scottster]

Mag is optional of course...

I've seen a number of TVRs this week around London
I agree with Steve Heath about the roof thing, often the boot is too full of stuff for the roof too - although not too often
Do you know what really gets my goat!? :goatbeinggot: Those Bloody MX-5 and MGF drivers who buy a funcking hard top for it and then leave it on for the summer - I MEAN WHAT THE FUNKS THAT ALL ABOUT THEN!!!??????



There I feel better - glad it's Friday.

Okay but... why do you care? I just can't be arsed!

Just don't forget to wave at passing TVR drivers, as that would be a real sin

Hey, in this day and age, THEY might choose to use a copy of the afore mentioned adult literature...!

Come on stop moaning... he's going as fast as the car will let him!

[NICE EH]

I live in Cheshire and I am a professional. Does that mean I have to wear a dirty northern suit?

Now, now. I've got your book, a Chimaera,and a Boxster S so play nicely.

I sometimes drive with the roof up when i'm in London because there are enough muppets in Beemers and other convertibles who are just out for a pose session with their mates, and I just think that driving a cool car like a TVR with the roof up says 'I don't need to proove a point, I already know it's a cool car' Sometimes you see convertible cars being driven by owners who want to just show off, I prefer to be a little more descreet.
If it's a very hot day of course then the roof comes off!

I would check this out www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=13778&f=48&h=0 and yes I do wear a suit and drive a Porsche, does that make me a bad person

[spnracing]

I often drove my Chimaera with the roof up because;

1. I couldn't be arsed to take it off
2. The wife complained about he hair getting spoiled
3. The car was WAY faster with the roof on - especially on motorways

And yes - given the choice of a Boxster S or Chimaera to try and set a lap time, I'd choose the Porsche every time.

In a word, yes.

Also, if you drive in traffic with the roof off, people are liable to lob missiles into the car, as Vmax500 found out recently when attacked with a lump of cheese!

hmmm,

well coming back from TVRServices on the middle lane of the A40 about 4:30 last night... Silver Chimaera rolls up in the fast lane, I wave & look across what do I see?

Two bloody suits in shades with the roof up - not only that but they solidy ignored us in the purple Chimaera with roof down...(not easy with the sports exhaust and the Mrs looking babelicious)...

So I pull out behind and wave, no reaction so I go past as they pull off and wave, still no reaction... If I didn't know better would have assumed it was a porker....

Don't get me wrong as I used to do the 'suit in the city' bit, but the last thing we need in TVR land is a load of 'Tims'....
