Cars that just don't suit their drivers.

[niall1717]

Today I saw a properly full-on Impreza with spoilers, big exhaust, large rims, rally stickers and slammed on coilovers (probably). It was being driven by a woman who looked around 65. Fair play to her if it's her car but no doubt it was her son's and she hated every mile in it. The point is, it was very incongruous. I think the same when I see women of 4'11" getting out of giant X5 BMWs or huge blokes driving Fiat 500s. I'm all in favour of people driving whatever they want but sometimes it looks odd.

Me! 20ish stones in a Caterham.

I'm a heterosexual male in a Ford Ka and I've never cut anyone's hair. Weird.

I know of a baby faced 17 year old rolling round in an absolutely pristine Jaguar XJ6. He only bought it as a Fiesta (or something along those lines) would cost over €4000 a year to insure, where as his Jag is costing him €1200 a year. Unfortunately, he does get stopped by the Gardai a lot!

But do you look like you might have cut someone's hair?

I saw an old boy, about 70ish getting into a bright yellow DS-3.

My mother's 67 and drives one of these... Though thinking about it, I'm not sure who it would suit really. Hideous.

OOoo, it has been almost a week since the last narrow-minded stereotype thread. I once saw a black man driving a car that wasn't a BMW!

Am I doing it right?

Is she blind or thick? If so it suits her perfectly.

Well... I figured it was my turn. I take it you drive a single seater?

Used to love driving the wife's Jimny softop.

It had such a gay image that it was in a similar category to anything "anti cool."

In fact a fair few hairdressers cars (where did that daft term come from) are pretty good. If anyone wants to accuse me of being gay to my face, they are welcome

Think I started a thread along these lines about a year ago, "unlikely car/driver combo". Good topic though.








Carry on.
