was on my way home tonight and pulled up at a set of traffic lights, in front of me was a new m3 with private plate.off we went to the next set. we are now close to
the city centre.the driver then puts the roof down ( im now thinking going into pose mode nono. the driver then starts revving the car. i think so that his two passengers
can hear it. now this had me thinking it would be so rude of me to not let them hear what a v8 should sound like . so i give the throttle a little blip.pop bang pop.which instantly had the back seat passenger turn round looking to see what was behind them. the lights changed and he took off with me behind him. we had a quick squirt in first and second before we caught up with the traffic in front,the back seat passenger was still looking at my car wondering what the hell is it..

comming up to the next set of lights the road goes straight and off to the left, he went off to the left as i went straight.i'm now sittng in the traffic thinking
nothing of it when 60 seconds later what goes crawling pass me in the other lane. yep the same bmw laugh. he obviously didn't have a clue what i was driving and
done a u-turn and drove up the road i was on to get a closer look to see what it was.

put a smile on my face. good to drive a car that not a lot of people know what it is. ( had someone asking today if it was a vectra censoredranting had to
put him right about the car.)

At the pumps (again) last week, I overheard a Vivaro driver tell his mate "It's an Insignia"

I had to put him right, saying "No it's not." His puzzled expression made me add "It's one of those Australian ones" and then the penny dropped. smile

I had a roofing contractor turn up in an RS4 who asked if my CV8 was a Maserati

Not sure which was my strongest emotion 1) you're making too much money and you won't make any from me 2) a hairdressers car!!! 3) how did you end up with an RS4 not knowing anything about cars
