Went to the Castle Donnington show last weekend. I was cruising round the M25 when a focus decided he wanted to climb in the boot of my 111S
Feeling a little sporty as it was early Sunday morning with virtually no traffic I accelerated away from him.
All this did was aggro him as he gradually gained on me upto a hundred.
I accererated away from him again and as we got upto 120 a massive plume of black then white smoke spewed from his exhaust and he almost lost it pulling over onto the hard shoulder.
I almost wish there was a roundabout so I could go back and wave

Morale of this story; don't screw with Elises in a shopping trolley, focus NOoobs

There was a Black Exige S1 right up my arse on the way back from the show getting on my nerves. Trying to undertake me and pass me at the stupidest places. Why do some people drive like that!?

Is a focus driver a "focker"?

Because you don't pull back into th einside lane quickly enough, and so block the faster cars for no gain?

After that comment NorthernBoy thought I'd have a look at your profile. See that you have next to notes that you've had a few crashes and you also appear to be a Porsche owner. Why am I not surprised to see that?!

I was actually in the right hand lane out of two, and he was trying to undertake me seconds before it went into one lane. Crazy if you ask me.

Good effort Georgio, in my opinion people who drive too close to the person in front get what they deserve.
