Sorry for tailgating you, but picking on little cars makes me feel better about myself, and also makes me realise that my scooby is very very fast. But all me mates down the pub were well impressed when I said that I stuck to the bumper of a 205 and that you couldnt out accelerate me. Also beat a Nova from the lights on the same stretch of road, nothing is faster than my scoob I tell ya!

Did I mention that my scoob was really fast!

when i used to drive weaker cars, and other tailgate me
(its usually audis or bmws.)
i slow right down , and i MEAN right down,
then when i see a potential time for him to overtake.

I have a mate like that. He went from 1.2 Astra (with 'history' imprinted in every panel) to a Ford Probe 24v. Thing is there is a humour/**** off v value equation. You can frighten the f*ck out of people in a 1.2 astra because you don't give a sh*t but people expect better manners and speed out of an undented mint looking newer car. Trapping people into potential head-on collisions or blocking them off is not the way to keep your own car or health in its prime.
