vauxhall calibra.
Cars you loathe
- Thread starter shifty_uk
- Start date
Most vauxhalls, as someone mentioned earlier, they arn't bad cars, they do everything competantly but nothing else. They just feel like they've been created with pure bland.
Particular hate directed towards the old ones sporting that fetching "Vauxhall pink" colour (red + sunlight = pink?)
Ford drivers in basic spec cars who think they are king of the road because it's shiny... it might be shiny, but it's still ****. The interior in basic spec fords comes equipped with a special tray to catch the vomit when you enter.
Scrappage scheme moron mobiles, why? just why? Trade in a perfectly decent car for a newer worse car thats exactly the same as everyone else has got? 10 points for originality. I am considering setting up a similar scheme where people give me their high powered and exotic cars in exchange for a brand new transit van, maybe it will catch on?
I would say the Cityrover, but it's got to a point below loathing, it's just plain pity now. When you're thinking about buying a new car, and you fire up google and type the name in, and the first page worth of sites are saying it's a massive piece of crap, what makes people want to buy one?
That'll do for now!

I can't stand those that have to rush out and buy a people carrier as soon as they have a couple of kids. Even worse is when the dad does the whole "yeah I'd like to have a nice car but, you know, kids and all that" when in reality the only way he could be happier about the situation was if he had "MY TESTICLES WORK!" written down the side of the thing.
In summary... all people carriers

Aye, my vauxhall seems to go pink very quickly. I have to whip out the T-cut every 12 months or so to keep it red. Eventually, I'll end up stripping all the paint off. At least it makes me feel better than the red vauxhall drivers who don't even bother.
But don't go hating the vauxhalls too readily. I've driven newer cars before and they've all been horrible over-assisted cocoons compared to my little astra. Admittedly, that's probably more a new car vs. old car preference.
Some clues. Should be easy.
- needs tow up hills.
- classic.
- less torque than a 3yr old toddler.

They're all buying 4x4's now. Too scared to drive something as low and "vulnerable" as anything else on the road so it has to be a 3 tonne 4x4 to protect their precious children. Stupid little brats. I hope they all die in a house fire or something equally grim.I can't stand those that have to rush out and buy a people carrier as soon as they have a couple of kids.

Hmmm.
A bicycle?
The y0 and the fact that Sin Chase winked makes me think Honda. Erm...Civic?
Could be a couple of models
- Has roof thus I don't cut hair
Robbie you clearly don't spend enough time on the forum (good thing
), I'm always VTECing around or mentioning my car and a recent obvious thread of mine is obvious. Anyhow I don't really like civics, although EK9s are quite cool. Also fonzee is my half brother. Some more of those damn Hyundai i cars today. Hateful looking things with silly faces!

I wanted to guess without that

Bingo
Didn't want it to drag on for too long, but have still polluted this thread
My project thread is around teh first few pages and about to get very active this weekend.
Pretty much every 4x4 on the road, off road, I love them, bar the Chelsea versions X5. Q7, etc.
Audi's driven by Ex BMW drivers (they know the cars are nowehere near as good as the BMW, so insist on trying to prove to everyone the opposite is true)

Pretty much, yes.
