XC90 - look at that tt in his 4x4 clogging up the roads
Audi A4 Avant - look at that tt in the Audi
Alfa 147 - look at that tt with the Alfa, must be always breaking down
TVR Chimaera - look at that tt, he must have a small penis.

I don't have much of a positive impression of my fellow road users, I'm afraid.

daddy cool said:
15 year old MX5 (which i've had for 13 years)

The have-nots: "look at that balding ponce thinking hes the big man in a sports car. I will drive right on his bumper in my humdrum family car to express my jealousy"

The haves: "poor sod, he can only afford an mx5. I will drive right on his bumper so he gets a good look at my expensive executive saloon, as he'll never own one himself"

MX5 drivers: "Oh here comes an mx5, i'll wave at him! Oh, he didnt wave back, the tt"
That made me chuckle.

And my car...

Audi driving cock I suspect.

I think most people assume mine is a kit car, although I'm not sure exactly what people think that means.

"Policeman in un-marked car (with a family)"

-often dirty, sandy-grey(?) Mk4 Mondeo estate rollin' on black 16" steels (sans wheel trims) and cushioning/balloon tyres , with extra driving lamps in the radiator grille and an extra reversing lamp under the bumper and 2 child seats in the back.
...and I look like a copper, apparently smile

Honda Civic SPORT


cant afford a type r (more cant afford to run / insure since type R's can be bought for SPORT money)

still wants the street cred of a type r

is poor.


That's what I think other people think. Personally, I think someone wants a civic that looks a bit nicer than a usual civic with some mice bits (trim level, automatic air con control, that kinda stuff) but still wants low running costs and good reliability. I like honda civic SPORT's, good little cars.

I don't think my car says anything about me really - the majority of the public probably don't even recognise it and therefore don't pass judgement - as per 99% of the cars on the road these days.

Besides which, a lot of people don't actually know what it is.

wish he'd wash that fking thing

actually remember moving into my house 10th December, done around 3000 miles without a wash, had a load of snow, couldn't see out the rear window it was that filthy, around 18th December went out to the neighbor washing his car saying how he loves a nice clean car, left it for a month after that before I felt the need to clean
