Traffic gets out of your way ('06)

[bigwheel]

I have a '06 CV8 (with nostrils) and I've noticed over the years how vehicles immediately in front of me on outer lanes of dual carriageways just seem to be quite willing to move left when I'm in their mirrors. I hasten to add that I'm not doing great speeds and no flashing of the lights.
Could be the nostrilled bonnet in their mirror looks impressively quick or I've had occasions when it's a case of "WTF is that. I'll pull over to let them pass so I can see WTF that car is!"

I wonder if the flat bonneted '04 cars have the same experience?

They proberly think they've got a calibre behind them

I used to have that in my old Ro and the R8 seems to have the same effect.... Apart from the odd German driver who thinks his box is quicker...

Both look imposing in the RVM and people don't recognise then either.

Coincidental post as was going to rant about people hogging the right lane doing 72mph who then get the ump when you flash them to get out of the way. Obviously impulse blue vxr8s don't have the same effect lol ....wtf these people are up to I have no idea

Blue car,dark grey wheels, black windows, low enough. Am sure its fun keeping it clean. You probably need a few thousand Carlsburgs washing it very second day
