3. Yeah, bet thats like does like 3 MPG dunnit. I usually tell people the 2cv does 80mpg lol! ;D 7. Your cars well rusty innit. Yea, it's a bit rotten downstairs... like your mum! 13. Thats not legal, thats not legal, those are illegal, my mate says thats not legal, you can't run them on the street you know. These people are coming from the totally wrong assumption that you care! The very very best one I ever had... Convoying to the 2cv club world meeting in scotland, a load of us stopped at a petrol station for fuel/wee/poo/food. Theres this scruffy looking old bloke walking up and down inspecting the cars, I go back to mine with a pasty and a milkshake, some other folks come back and he strikes up a conversation... "I used to have loads of these years ago" etc. etc. 'The handling was curse word" etc. etc. "Broke down all the time" etc. etc. "Had trouble getting a radiator for one" (I can imagine you would for an air cooled car) and finally.... "It's annoying because you cant fit a stereo anywhere in it, it's impossible" "another thing...." This last scentence was cut off by a blast of Motorhead from my car that he was unable to talk over. F***wit!

I spent a lazy day in our carpark yesterday fettling the Beetle, Camper and Golf, an old woman from one of the houses came out to get her BMW Z3 from the garage so her boyfriend would have a space to park his RX8 when they got back. As she walked passed to told me to "get rid of the rusty old heap, all you do is fit more windows to it!" I was attaching the headrests to the front seats of the camper at the time, I had been sorting the window rubbers out a while back when she last saw me.... Anyway, she walks off and her leather stetson wearing 50something boyfriend wanders over and starts the old, "I hate Volkswagens....Hitler...Nazi" rant Thats nice I replied, I have 3 VWs now, just as he was leaving he turned back and added "I also hate those G reg Golf GTIs" She really hates us for having a couple of cars in the communal carpark, so we curse word her off when she got back by having all the cars and my brothers Caterham out when they returned, made him park in the road

What a peculiar duo they sound. Thats when the trendy image of Z3s and RX8s is tarnished forever - when sad, weird old fossils go out and buy them with their retirement funds.

"I also hate those G reg Golf GTIs" I don't normally like personalised registrations but I reckon you need to get one so you can keep her guessing as to the precise age of the car. Just remembered another comment I overheard recently from some school kids while I was doing somehting with the van. "That's the car with the kitchen in isn't it?"

Thats when the trendy image of Z3s and RX8s is tarnished forever - when sad, weird old fossils go out and buy them with their retirement funds. they are odd, we have a communal carpark and garages for our group of houses, she's trying to make it one space each to stop people having too many cars parked up, the Beetle is in a garage already and the work van is parked outside it but the camper and Golf are in two spaces, she said we'd need to get rid of one or park it else where when she finally manages to pursuade the owners to number the spaces...... ......the lovely lady next door to us who loves our Beetle and Camper and parks in her garage said we can have her space for the camper just to upset the old hag

My old mini was nearly towed from the communal carpark! It was registered to that address tut, but because i didn't have my license so i didn't really use it and it was a total rot box underneath they assumed it had been dumped! TUT at them!

I also had a fella yell "pull in your main sail captain!" which made me laugh, as do any ORIGINAL nautical/land yahct themed ones. That made me proper LOL ;D I haven't had many comments for a while. I've had "It looks like you've driven it out of the scrap yard"a couple of times. "Are you going to do it up?" ...erm... it sort of is... All the usual petrol station jokes. (it's only a 2 litre FFS!) The latest one, from an employee at a petrol station on the M42: "What the f*ck is that, mate?" Three words that boil my p*ss: "Gangsta", "Pimpin'" and "Bling". The fact that Primark sell T-Shirts with "Bling" printed on them without the slightest bit of irony should prompt the world to file these words under "Retarded".

Surely with a black W115 you could tell them you`re a Bond villain`s henchman from 1982? Sorry, another stereotype but a better one I`d have thought!

Three words that boil my p*ss: "Gangsta", "Pimpin'" and "Bling". amen brother. Driving yankee stuff in recent years the "yee haw" and line dancing comments have been replaced by ones about pimps and bling and such.

I never thought of "pimpmobile" as much of an insult for a car, really. Suppose it depends if its a Huggy Bear kind of pimp or ......I don't know, some ar5sehole. F8ck it, cant think of any contemporary pimps.

guys...you all gotta chill out a bit, don't worry about people slagging off your cars, and asking daft questions, or making kind but uninformed comments. it's because you've got an interesting vehicle. no real malice to it.

When fuelling up my bug.
curse word: What is that, a seventy..? *waiting for a last number*
Me: Its a 58..
curse word: Naah, they had dem split rear windows then.
Me: Nope, they disappeared in 52. 58 is the first year with the square rear window.
curse word: Naah, they made this here special edition up to 6(whatever) with the split rear window.
Me: . . . . Sure they did.
And another one
curse word: So, when are you gonna restore it?
Me: Well, i`ll do a bit now and a bit then, might get a Porsche 356 engine, and lower it a lot.
curse word: No, you mustnt go cutting springs on a old classic like that!
Me: It aint got coil springs.
And the classic:
curse word: You can get Porsche 911 engines in them y`know

I never thought of "pimpmobile" as much of an insult for a car, really. The word has conotations of "completely lacking in taste" for a start, but pimps are guys who are involved inthe illegal traffic of women, beat them, get them hooked on drugs or steal their passport and rape 'em. Then force the to hae sex with guys for money, etc. or alternatively meaning some dumbass rapper who thinks boasting about violence towards women is making him a big guy to all his 14 your old homies. none of the above is at all flattering Next time some one says it I might try a reply of "yeah, yours is real child molester innit bro"
