Today, I have mostly been hating...

[Triumph Man]

Tall hatchbacks, 307 etc, with stupidly long windscreens and those clap hand wipers. They look good on an old Mercedes W114, but on thes I'm afraid they remind me of an MPV. I hate the way hatchbacks have got too tall. They are bloated in other ways, yes, but why tall for Christ's sake.

I have also been hating after market aero wiper blades. If your car did not come with them, do not retrofit, they look ste.

I'm angry today, sorry. What do you lot hate in the automotive world today?

Today, I have mostly been watching dirty clips on youtube that come up if you search for Messerschmitt AND flyby.
Gawd, am I angry that my car is NOT an aircooled Fieseler

[MGgeordie]

Im not angry but.....


....I dont like the way headlights on modern cars now come half way up the side of the front wings....looks ste in my opinion. Seems to be the norm on a lot of cars these days.

It bugs me that they're called 'aero' blades at all. There's virtually no mass airflow in that region of the car...

Today I'm not hating anything or anyone. In fact I'm chuffed to bits as my world-clock arrived - thanks Tim a PH'er - and it's very cool.

[Pints]

I've been hating posts which appear in the wrong thread.

Well I certainly want one of those and I demand that you tell me how I get my paws on one!

Awesome. Why are two and three, six and seven and ten and eleven the wrong way round though?

People wanting to buy budget tyres for their very expensive/powerful/specialist cars. Doing my nut in today!!

That seems like rather a lot of money for a clock.

Just what I was thinking. I'm sure I could have wired this up back in the days of my electronics part of my GCSE tech.

He sounds like a bit of a nobber too.

At the very base of the windscreen, yeah, but further up, where they are clearing water from, there is.

First thing I do on all my cars - they are a lot better than the standard ones!...

Today I have been hating the old guy who clearly didn't see the gigantic roundabout as he approached it, only to nearly kill an entire family going around it in a bright red people carrier!

[DeadMeat_UK]

Today I've mostly been hating the fact....
... that I promised to go to a studio gym class with my girlfriend tonight when I'm tired and want to go home and just have a nice dinner and sit down.

... and that it's not Friday yet.

Oi! This is a thread of negativity and hatred. Do not be making it positive. Although I want that clock...

How are they better? I have owned two pretty much identical cars, one with the traditional style wipers, and one with (OEM) aero wipers. I couldn't tell the difference. Both cleared rain, neither made a noise.
