[#3217444]

Seen a lot of motoring threads on here lately so thought I'd start my own.

Clear win for Range Rovers I reckon, possibly because a lot of the knobbier Audi drivers probably sold their Audis to buy RRs.

Your thoughts?

The irritating drivers drive all sorts of cars, the jealous only notice the ones they're envious of.

You focus on drivers of cars you're prejudiced against. Some people driving 12 year Astras are utter knobs too.

but none as bad as pickup drivers, without doubt, the most annoying, and I have absolutely, utterly, completely no intent to own one.

I've two encounters with RR owners in the last two weeks that were fantastic. One, the bloke waved me through on my road bike as I was faster than him down some lanes, and the second time a nice lady pulled aside for a friend and I as we were heading uphill and she was heading down. Based on that small sample, RR drivers are great.

Men driving people carriers

You can see the complete frustration on their face of having to drive such a pile of cr*p and they decide that to compensate they need to speed, sit on your bumper and generally just be angry with the world.

Anyone who drives anything in London - no-one ever let's you out at a junction.

Yes, mainly the little ones though. Zafira size.

In my experience the biggest *-wagon around the North West is the Range Rover/Audi Q7/BMW X6 - just any huge expensive 4x4 - driven by some snotty, self-obsessed Cheshire rich bitch who thinks the most important thing in the *ing world is to get to their Hairdresser/lunch/personal shopper/personal trainer appointment.

And if anyone else should happen to die in the process of achieving that, then that's a price worth paying

I find the RR drivers the most arrogant - parking on doubles, disabled bays (with no badge), etc.

"I've got a car that cost X times yours, so I can park it here if I want"

But none of these people actually buy their cars, they're just leased - so they can try and live the lifestyle to which they'd like to become accustomed. Most of them are still tools though.

It's because you are jealous of their wonderful automobile, isn't it?

Admit it, you want one, don't you? You'd love to put your toe on that small slab of aluminium, pressing it until smoke comes out the rear.

You'd grasp that leather clad object and shove it to the left, to the right, all around until you could no longer hold on.

Possibly.

I find the Nissan(?) Qashqai - I think that's how its spelt - almost universally poorly driven. Not sure why. Maybe they're hard to control or something. Always give them a wide berth.

I'd say the worst driven car on the road is without doubt the Nissan Micra

Shows how far BMW have fallen. A few years back they would have owned a "driven by tools" thread.

I drive a C-Max!

Fortunately I'm a very calm person! But yes, I'm a lot less happy driving that than I am the midget*. On the other hand I can get bikes in the back and it's not mised a beat yet.

*Took it out for a spin last weekend, the brakes didn't work and the steering had siezed, but it was still more fun than a barrel full of KY jelly.

I like driving people carriers. Motorways are for cruising, and they cruise well.

I've got a big one (ahem) but converted to bike-van, bed, fridge, bike carrying space etc. No frustration here. actually think I'm a better driver since I've had it as it is so slow I'm taking a more relaxed approach to driving.

Worst drivers are definately buses. Rather than the 'mirror signal manouver' thing they obvioulsy get taught 'manouver signal'
Anyone know how to spell manouver properly? My spilling is appealing.

Know that their thing works, hence don't need to compensate with a flashy car.

I've just ordered an Audi, when it's delivered next year I'll have to leave this forum. As Top Gear has educated too many on here to hate Audis now and now BMW drivers.

Drac, only the seriously hard of thinking form their opinions based on that, so it doesn't matter.

Sorry for the tangent (prob start another useless thread off this) but when did white cars become cool? I've noticed more and more expensive white cars lately - it used to be only if you couldn'd stretch to metalic or black that you went for white...

+1 for RR-sport and BMW X3, X5, X6

You are all going to love the V12 Bentley off-roaded (bigger version of the Audi A7 if you can beleive that is possible) when it arrives in 2012-2013!

Personally I think that you see lots of badly driven cars and it's down to the driver not the car. No stereotypes.
