Cars & typecasting their drivers

[snooky]

Just for a bit of fun :greengrin ...

Small Renaults/Fiats/Micras = Ditters

Beamers = Show offs who own the road & are exempt from all speed restrictions

Chelsea Tractors = A 'school bus' that goes either too slow or too fast depending on time left to get to school.

Over here audi drivers are way worse than bmw drivers. Even allowing for the over population of ****ers per capita and generally awful driving standards in NI they are visibly and annoyingly ever present on just about every journey i dare to endure.

Us audi drivers are excellent drivers ill have you know!

The nordy ones aren't. Maybe it's a regional thing. Noneof them seem to be fitted with indicators but that could apply to a number of car manufacturers over here tbf.

Taxi = Unpredictable, aggressive road hogs.

[SuperAllyMcleod]

Honda Civic = worst drivers on the road!

[stoneyburn hibs]

4x4/Jeep Drivers think they own the road :grr:

Didn't take long :greengrin

Not so much the car as the driver..... Middle aged female executive types, in their 'power' suits (usually driving high end vw golfs or similar) are without doubt the most discourteous,pig ignorant welts ever to get behind a steering wheel.

People driving any sort of hire car. Some of the things you see out at the airport as they head up in their recently hired car, with absolutely no idea how to drive it is astounding.

[Jack]

Audi drivers have taken over from BMW drivers as far as poor driving standards go.

But worse than Audi drivers are those that wear hats. From little old ladies who dither to boy racers you can rest assured that if the driver in the car in front is wearing a hat it won't take long to wonder just how they passed their test.

[Andy Bee]

People that move into the BMW lane on the motorway and only do 70mph, really gets my goat that. :agree:

Stolen Car = Mancunian - Manchester officially announced recently as stolen car capital of Britain...............................another title we've lost :grr:

I thought Hire Cars only went one speed. (And that's not slow).

Pfffft scousers and mancs might win in the volume stakes but compared to car crime in belfast you're amateurs. Here a car doesn't really count as properly stolen until its parked outside a police station packed full of explosives :greengrin

Especially these ones without indicators.

Are you saying that it's only bangers that get stolen over there? :wink:

Nissan Juke - Middle aged woman who has accepted a life of bland mediocrity. Likely to be indecisive at roundabouts.

I'm in Belfast next weekend, I'll look out for them :greengrin

Any recommendations for good eating places/pubs?

Heehee...saw this the other day....in the wrong lane, desperately kangarooing into the right lane, windscreen washers skooshing all over the place :greengrin

I don't know belfast very well but I believe there are plenty of good places to eat. Of places I've been the apartment next to city hall, il pirata on upper Newtownards road (a taxi from the city centre would take you past some fairly colourful loyalist murals on the lower section of newtownards rd) and molly's yard near queens uni are all good. Again with pubs I've not been in very many in the city centre but the john Hewitt and the duke of york seem decent.

We did the bus tour a few weeks back when friends came over and it was pretty good, I'd recommend it to see a fair bit of the city and hear some of the background to the various historical sites.

Have a great time, it's a good city with friendly people.

[sleeping giant]

Old teenagers who drive cars that have the loud exhaust effect.
Utter utter bell ends.

If you fall out with the mrs and fancy a pint, bangor is only a half hour train journey away :greengrin

I had one of them in a white Merc behind me the other day. Oh, how I loved to ditter along in my small Renault :greengrin

[snooky]

Farm tractors that drive for miles and miles oblivious to the long tailback behind them. Grrrrrrrr!

Add to that horse boxes!

People who drive Subaru Imprezas from the 1990's. That big bore exhaust sounds crap and please take that Colin McRae sticker off your back window as you were probably about six when he won his title (most of the drivers I see are in their twenties).

People who have these mini boxing gloves hanging from their mirrors. Other drivers be like "Bruv, don't do it man, the guy is a fighter".
In the real world I'm afraid that people just think you're trying to project a hard man image and are probably a dickhead.

Saw a pair hanging in a Siver Merc with the Reg X BOXER on Friday, not sure if he was a hard man, dickhead or both.

Nurburgring Stickers in 1.2 Clio's

The white van man who doesn't pull over to the left after overtaking because there's someone away in the distance he wants to overtake.

Whatever happened to STP (nicknamed 'go faster') stickers?
Anybody seen one on a vehicle these days?

BTW, not sure but I think STP stood for "Standard Temperature Pressure"
(Maybe should have put that in the "Utterly Useless Info" thread?)
