Nope nothing wrong with the Aston thread, far from the most cringeworthy thread I've ever read.

Tonsko, out of interest, does your name on here come from anything in particular or is it more random?

AM thread is fine, being a previous owner I can understand his post and given the audience it is well placed. When you drive these things you open yourself up for comment and attention, its a big side effect of owning the car, wanted or not. Chap is not bragging, or saying look at me in my Aston, he is discussing this subject with anther AM drivers.

See, now, this is cringeworthy.

A blatant 'ooh, I had an Aston too'. Truly cringeworthy.

When I was in the Ferrari owner's club we used to laugh at just this.

Yes indeed. Come play Eve, WarThunder or <many other> Steam games! Except for that ancestry thing, not sure what that is.

Edit: Nur - It comes from my home town. Sorry for rudely ignoring you.

I love the post where someone asks the OP if his car is a soft-top and he replies "Yes, Volante..."
The AM section is easily the most cringeworthy part of pistonheads, its enough to put anyone off the brand.

Can't see anything wrong with the AM thread, this is a car forum after all, two things though, Runner911 , his reaction to being called a was excellent, the other post where someone wrote knob on the back of his car without the k made me laugh, someone did that to my stty old BMW this weekend, I actually wrote the k one because it looked that bad.

The Mountfield/Ferrari Ride On? Take that back at once! I'll have you know that engine has been in that lawnmower since 1954. Though, where the supercharger went is anyone's guess.

I love that he bought a cat d knowing it was a cat d, being happy with it being a cat d, liking the price because it was a cat d and now there are some issues he wants to know what he can do about it.
But don't worry about caveat emptor because he "was very clear that I was only buying the car if it was solid, and would come back if there was an issue in the near future".

Good luck with that.

IMO OP needs to get a fking life, comes across as a little bh when he says, 'How do I go about reporting it to the police', reminds me of the teachers pet.

I'm not defending the guy in the video or anything, but just, leave it.

Calm down. Have some Easter egg.

I don't think that is a cringeworthy thread. Cringe video in the link though and an awful accent.

People who speak like that shouldn't be allowed on You Tube.
