Drove into work today bit tricky but no major dramas on narrow snow covered lanes. That is untill the cocks with 4x4's come the other way. Sat in the middle of the road doing 40mph thinking they are invincible. That would be you in the Navarra, that would be you in the Discovery that would be you in the Freelander you f*ckin co*kjockeys. Sadly all but one were women and seemed to be be clueless as to what to do or even slow down. Anyway made it and am now bored at work, hence the post.

i like all the wrong side of the road stuff that they do when the rest of us just wait in line.
didnt know it was allowed when it snows.Posted 2 years ago # -
Woman broke down in our road this morning so the guy coming down towards her decided the best course of action was to swear at her and ask why she hadn't pulled over before she broke down
There was lots of swearing back and forth and the bloke did sod all to actually help. Think there'll be more of this before it warms up.

Sounds like it's lucky that you're a good enough driver to have got out of their way.

i've had the opposite, driving over the snake pass before christmas i was constantly held up by timid drivers in 4x4s driving too slowly.
in a 2wd car they need to understand that momentum is my friend and when they stop on an uphill corner or mince downhill i'm going to get stuck or smash into the back of them
but i've had far more trouble with people in normal cars so not going to tar them all with the same brush
basically eberybody on the road is shit except me

well then you'll be happy to know that my (proper) 4x4 is still parked where it was 5 days ago, because despite the fact it can cope with sh1te weather I don't deem any of my journey's worth the risk.
Bike works fine

Dont get me started on the **** retards that think its acceptable to sit on your bumper on a white road. **** imbeciles - they dont even take the hint when you stop to let them passed - they just **** sit there with a dumb look on their fat **** faces.

When there's someone tailgating me in the snow, I pull in at the next junction, do a quick U turn and pull out behind them. Saves all the stress and aggro of having them behind you, and you get to do a quick handbrake turn

Pigface, did your wife give you a knock back last night then, or is it just jealousy that you do not own a 4x4?

The peace of mind that I experience whilst travelling around safely in my 4x4 allows me the space to reflect on the joys of owning what some are clearly envious of, of slowly killing polar bears, of watching less successful people struggle and of driving 1 metre from the back of nervous looking people who can't wait to get home and fill the internets with tales of evil Landrovers.
Marvelous.

4x4 drivers = f**kwits shocker !!
You should see it around here - unbelievable driving!
Out at 6.0am and some people are driving without their lights on, others tailgating ridiculously close!!
Guy drove around the corner of a road so fast he span off and did a 360 degree power slide and almost rolled the car.
I'm staying in and going out on my bike offroad away from the idiots

instead of all this:
4x4 drivers = f**kwits shocker !!

RWD drivers = f**kwits shocker !!
young drivers = f**kwits shocker !!
old drivers = f**kwits shocker !!
red car drivers = f**kwits shocker !!

4x4 means more braking and cornering grip, does it?

Hey good luck to them, at least for 1 week a year they can feel smug. Probably makes up for 51 weeks of feeling awkward & self-concious.

I love the 4x4 haters, here are a few good reasons why i drive a navara
1. i can go biking get the bike dirty as fook and chuck it straight in the back without worrying about getting car dirty
2. in the summer i go camping alot and get to leave most of gear in car all summer to just get in and go, not constantly packing and unpacking.
3. when the weather is shite like now I get to take the back lanes home and leave the main routes clear for all the 2wheel drivers(and still beat them there)
4 If your really knew what you were talking about you would realise my diesel navara is far more fuel efficient than most 2ltr rep mobiles so it actually does some good too.

i'd like to see THOSE figures

I get about 38 to the gallon all cycles, wife drives a 2 ltr primera on similar journeys that returns no where near as good consumption, on a run I get 45+

I drive a all wheel drive car. Love the way it pulls into and around roundabouts and it offers great traction when you use the throttle and steering calmly. Blame the driver, not the car.

your wife must have a right foot the size of a navy destroyer then

Most 2ltr rep mobiles are diesels now and get 45 plus per gallon
Posted 2 years ago # -
soo...if the rep mobiles are only returning similar figures and mine is far more practical who's the donut here?
Posted 2 years ago # -
You must have a specially special noncerama
Economy ~ manufacturers figures
Urban 23.9 mpg
Extra Urban 32.8 mpg
Combined 28.8 mpgThe Primera had rubbish fuel economy even when it was new, so I don't really think that its hard to better it.

45 average, you get 38

Me to mcboo. Seems some people think that 4X4 drive gives you 4X4 stopping. You still have to drive well, hit the brakes in a 4X4 and your suddenly in control of a two ton sledge.
I learnt alot about driving 4X4s in the Army, probably learnt a bit more when the instructors weren't watching
and I learnt some great tips when I did a basic course so I could drive my company 4X4 in a certain companies sites
Posted 2 years ago # -
best tip on driving a 4x4 if the conditions are really bad, let the car do the work, engine braking is very underrated in bad conditions
