Taxi drivers in general whether black cab A. Lee or minicab style. Even though they are "meant" to be professional drivers they are anything but.

Most cars that are small and st. Smacks of someone not comfortable with dimensions and not bothered about what they drive. Usually seen struggling to park or misjudging the gap.

Battered Vauxhall Zafiras. Angry wife beater vested Dad at wheel, life hasn't turned out the way they wanted it too.

Mitsubishi Warrior/VW Amarok pick up things, roid raging angry builder type on his way to a "big job".

White Audi Tdi crowd. Ah so that's why you can do 95 safely in the pouring rain "Cos Quattro innit".

V Dub vans blinged and stanced, driven by 40 year old wannabee surfers with sciatica, complete with garland on the rear view mirror. Extra points for a really old one in a st colour.

Skoda VRS, look how fast..., small willy.

Anything MPV/Van like and French, lost the will to live.

BMW 20D's, no you are not the fastest thing on the road, extra points for M Sported 16D's going hell for leather.

Anyone wearing a hat in a car, Sir Stirling and the Queen excepted.

There's nothing in this thread I disagree with so far.



The original Ford KA has long been a "avoid this car on the road" personal statement. Not just for being slow, but having absolutely no comprehension of lane discipline, spacial awareness or indeed indicators.

However, the past couple of years this infection has spread. Pretty much any car made in the far east, but specifically those of Korean or Malaysian origin are driven (mostly, but not entirely) but complete utter fkwits.

I'll happily add heavily financed Qashquais, Jukes, white 1 Series' and anything else that falls under the "I don't know about cars but i'll buy it because it Says BMW/ Has Low repayments/ Has an iPod Plug in it." If you have no interest in cars, you tend not to care about your driving either.

Agree with pretty much everything mentioned previously, the standard of driving in this country is slipping at an alarming rate

Range Rovers are seemingly exclusively piloted by aggressive speeding cocks.

Followed by leased Audi A4s.

Around here (SW) also any generation of recent VW van.

This has to be the most unpredictable car on the road - I always give them a wide berth. Red is the most erratic colour:



These are slowly being replaced now though by anything that resembles a toaster on castors.

Have you shaved your head and got a few tribal tattoos yet?

Mercedes Vaneo/Vito/Viano - I have seen worse drivers in other makes and models, however I have never seen one of these driven correctly. For the consistency of a 100% pillock rate these win for me.

I saw one this very afternoon. Flooring it at inopportune moments, constantly on/off the brakes, All over the place going around bends and aggressively Pushing their way into traffic.

Of course, the Range Rover is made more antisocial and "F*ck You" by those awful, eye level, dazzling HID headlights.

have we had every model of car ever made yet? normally the way these threads go.

I'll drop a newish to me one in though, poxhall mokkas seems to be the chariot of choice for people for whom the driving process never makes it above about 7 or 8 in the list of things that are important or in the forefront of what little mind they possess while they're driving.

There are bad drivers in most cars, but I think every mini convertible I've ever seen has always had the roof up regardless of the weather, and on the motorway can't maintain a steady speed or seemingly leave the middle lane.

Round by me the slowcoaches are small vans, slammed city cars, sporty recent gen VAGS, and an odd one ive only noticed recently usually E90 BMW 3 series slowing down excessively for bends, then trying to block overtakes on straight roads, although i've seen a few lower powered E46's doing it too.

I suggested that I get some tattoos to my wife. She told me I look enough of a tt without them frown

They are great trucks, though. Their range is:

4work
4life
4tailgating
4roadrage
4smallwillies
Animal
Warrior

I've gone for the 4life, as it's not going to be used that much so I didn't want things like air conditioning going wrong on me.

Silver Astras, usually diesel.

The newer they are the worse they drive.

Invariably aggressive, always unpredictable.

They don't know what an MPS is so I enjoy dropping a cog and disappearing in to the distance whenever I am menaced by one of these scopers.

Special mention also to Nationalist Express Coach Drivers. Perhaps the most feared bunch of hardened criminal psychopaths this side of Syria.

I get as far away from them as I can, as quickly as I can.
