I had to suffer the indignity of a female work colleague asking me what my car looked like, so i showed her a pic from my gallery and she proclaimed "awwww that car's cute!".....

ARGH!!!!! I've spoken at length to Julie @ Leven about this and we are both of the opinion that no Cerbera should ever be called "cute". It's a snarling beast, it's not cute!

That was my worst, so the question is - What's the most terrible comments you've had to endure from uneducated people?

The worst I ever had was when a neighbour stood beside my first cerb (it was about 2 or 3 yrs old at the time) and then said that he had a friend coming over with a boxster S and then said 'I bet you are jealous'. I changed the subject.

I had a similar experience recently at a pals house. A neighbour of his turned up in a bright yellow boxster. My pal asked me if I was "saving up for one". For f**ks sake - why the hell would I want a bright yellow f**king Boxster?

When I had my Cerb, someone once asked me if my girlfriend knew I was out in her car.

You should've said, "It works too, you know!"

I'd have added, "...lots of room in the back of your hatchback too, love..."

Should have asked her if she would like to try it for size as I hear that Pug drivers are rather loose.

"Aye, you should see the size of the bollox it's based on..." would've been good too.

"Nice car"

How dare people use a word such as 'nice' to describe such a wonderful thing...

In all honesty, I dont think anyone has ever said anything bad about the Cerb, or atleast not when I've been around...

Got alot of positive reactions though.

Had some fool tell me that it was a nice Porshe a couple of months back. I corrected him, he looked offended and said "yeah, I know it is a Porshe Cerbera".

I strangled him with a fuel hose which according to the Police is not so much justifyable homicide as a service to humanity!
