Yer nan's knickers
Not bad driving or top speeds, just random crap.

I'll start:

I worked with a guy many years ago who used to tell everyone how much he loves cars, and that his car was incredibly quick and would smash most things on the highway. He never said what car it was and he was the type of character to just get nodded at in that "yeah ok mate" way. Eventually someone piped up and asked him, it was a diesel passat estate. You know, the crap old 1.9 diesel engines with a redline lower than your nan's knickers.

Anyway, bumped in to him today again and he made me smile, I asked what he drives now and he's bought yet another blisteringly fast car, a Jag I-Pace diesel.



Well, that story certainly sounded better in my head and now seeing it on screen is rather disappointing but whatevs, over to you :D
 
In other riveting news I once worked with a girl who had owned a car from new for 7 years and never had it serviced, she didn't know that was recommended or indeed in many cases a warranty condition. In a way she lucked out because she was able to run a car for 7 years without having to pay for anything other than tyres (at least I hope the tyres were changed!), probably saved like a grand in servicing costs.

When my sister first started driving she thought you only needed to service a car when you were selling it :o
 
in my early 20's i did an agency driving job driving a 7.5T delivering some stuff to central london. nothing remarkable about that. on the way back i was stuck in a traffic jam on the M1 in the slow lane and in the lane next to me came past very slowly a 4x4 soft top with its roof down can't recall the make/model but i vividly remember its occupants. there was a skinhead beefcake driving and in the back were 2 scantily clad attractive women. we made eye contact, 1 of them leans over to the other lifts her top up and licks the nipple of her bare breast and starts groping it etc. i thought this was a bit odd tbh but wasn't complaining. it did somewhat ruin my driving concentration as i missed the M6 turnoff and went up the M1 in the wrong direction for about 50 miles.

That was probably my mum terrible for that she was.

Such antics are relatively common for truckers, I’ve seen some sights over the years (both very good and very very bad!) along similar lines.

I could write a good few paragraphs on it, but, you’d never believe the half of it and this is supposed to be a family friendly forum….
