Why Do Some People Bother???.

Drove into town earlier with the missus to go and pay the bills and do some shopping. Driving around the one-way and i come to the crossroads that leads through the town centre...just get to the junction and some doddery old **** pulls out in front of me, jump on the horn, flash the lights, wave my arms around and the dozy old **** still doesn't see me...hes watching the steering wheel instead of the road as he turns the corner and bangs up the pavement. Drive through the town centre and take the road out to go out of town the back way, get towards the edge of town and the girl in front of me indicates left to pull into the small carpark of some unknown business thats there. She slows right down, i go to pull alongside her and she veers right (remember, shes still indicating left), across the road and pulls up at the opposite pavement. Well ****** off by now, i head out of town, just leaving the 30MPH zone and farmer giles is trundling up the road in his pickup at 30MPH, look behind (one car behind) and then indicate and pull out to overtake, look behind again and the young lad in the 309GTi following has got it all wrong...hes put his foot down trying to anticipate when i'll pull back in so he can horse it past me as well and hes gone to soon, i pull in front of the farmer as fast as i can in time to see him pull even further out to avoid hitting the arse end of my car, hes still going for it but now hes got two wheels on the verge as well. Saw his car for sale on the side of the road a couple of weeks ago (was fancying it myself for £275!) so i'm guessing hes still not used to it...as for me, i'm going back to public flamin' transport...its safer...

mate.....a wheel chair sounds like a better plan.

And you should have got that 309 GTi.....they're really very good indeed.

Shame bout the nana driving it now

And as for old people....you really SHOULD try going on a test drive with them, as I have to do, nearly every day.......terror is a small word

lol used have days like that all the time

I'd take out the VFR800 for a Sunday blast and be back home 10mins later after nearly being knocked off half a dozen times in the blink of a eye.
I'd decide that today ain't my day and go down the pub instead

Really fancy a 205GTi...friend of mines has a lazer green 1.9 hes bought but has gone off. Its a shame as its the Ltd Edition one with the correct green fleck half leather, green carpets (bit much green i'm thinking!), black dash and only a couple of owners from new...bit out of my price range though...ah well...

only probs with the 205's of the older age seem to be very flimsy inside IMHO
