Things that REALLY annoy me

[madmatt]

Just thought I'd start a list of things, words or phrases that are REALLY getting on my nerves.

Feel free to add your own

STANCE!
Everyone and their dog (or Dug to the Scots and Dag to the pikeys) is talking about Stance...everyone is all, "Man, my wheels need spacers and springs so it can get the right stance"
STANCE ISN'T EVERYTHING - No matter how many websites would like to make you believe!

Gantin
Stupid Scottish coloquialism that is really "doing ma boax in". One of my aquaintances on Facebook started calling EVERYTHING Gantin, that was annoying to say the least. Now all his mates (a fair amount of my mutual friends) have starting doing the same. Just annoying!

Same difference
I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE IT!

Neds in Corsas

Neds in 1.2 Corsas that insist on driving them like they're VXRs

Neds in VXRs that think they drive a Veyron

Neds in Corsas with Domokun hanging from the towhook - I strongly doubt they even have a clue what Domokun is...

I'm done....for now.

I am so with you on that! All you ever hear is stance this and stance that and it's usually from 12 year olds in pants cars! haha

I've driven a very low car (a Lupo) and it was a f*cking pain in the ar$e. Yeah it looked good but the Twingo RS handles better.

I think this whole stance thing is perhaps a way of having a car that's different from the norm without being faster, saves on insurance costs of a performance car.

I can appreciate a car that looks nice and has a good 'stance' but that doesn't man it has to be scraping the floor. Sadly a lot of 'stanced' cars only have their stance going for them!

When people write "brought" when they mean "bought". :twisted: "fought" instead of "thought" :twisted:

I know what you mean about everyone banging on about stance. It can get a tad tedious.
I do like a car that's been lowered and spaced nicely though.
Over on Edition38 they all bang on about "laying frame" and think it's cool if your sump bashes catseyes :twisted:

The thing that boils my blood the most is people with no manners!!

yea, I'm also on tuned-belgium and it has all kinds of tuners, from drifters, cleaned to streetstyle. And someone showed their new Renault Clio 200 RS and they were all like, "put some airride or dampers on there".. I instantly replied that they were insane to have a track machine like that have its suspension ****** up just to make it look low. Car like that only needs some performance upgrades like a remap and miltek exhaust.

Drift charms on a front wheel drive?

New fashion thing?

Well I shouldn't talk much since I've ordered this:

and hang it on the towhook. I used to have Monster stickers on my car but they were poor quality and came off already.. but I'm not calling it a drift charm, I call it a Monster charm

 

[pritchp]

i drifted my car the other day... on a round about... scared me.. hahaha so i just lost the back end really

 

[pritchp]

i was leaving heathrow... and nearly cacked my pants

 

[pritchp]

it can be, depends how i drive haha!
its also filthy at the moment though

 

[weebob]

Sorry MovingShadow but the Monster stuff is starting to get on my tits. Each to thier own and all that but...

.... why oh why am I seeing moped's with the stickers on, do these dicks think they are the Ken Block of the 2 wheeled world. Seems to be mainly Arse old fiestas, suppose there is the ford link there, but there is even an Alfa 147 near me that has a few Monster stickers on it. :roll:

I probably just dont understand what with being old and all.

yeps, here it is:

 

[Dazza1]

[pritchp]

[Dazza1]

Get your mum and dad to insure it lol Tiff nedel raced 1 round the track at top gear live

 

[maggi200]

I'm sure a posing pouch would be more appropriate

 

[manofhow]

insurance was the only thing that stopped me gettng a renault sport along time ago.

but glad as i love my twingo

 

[manofhow]

people that say xhorst instead of exhaust kinda bugs me. spelling it that way saves u one letter, not really a time saver.
