Blokes in girls cars
Young lad (< 30) in a 206 CC on the motorway this morning, driving like a ***, in and out up the inside, nearly causing a pile up, pulling into minute gaps and generally being a *****, one headlight out but both front fogs working perfectly.
Luckily he stopped alongside me when we got off the motorway, me going left, him going right, so I wound my window down and, beckoned him to do the same, which he did, I then very politely said
'you drive like a ****, does your sister know you have borrowed her
car ?'
Not impressed, just wound my window up, so before he had chance to react I couldnt hear him anyway and moved off with him making rude gestures whilst trying to keep an eye on the Mercedes Sprinter that was attached to his bumper cos he had p1ssed off the driver of that as well with his antics.
Men, the Peugeot 206 CC is not an acceptible vehicle to be seen in, if you are drivng one by neccesity, say moving it back from your bird bumping it or taking it to be part exed for something less ladylike then put some trade plates on it or something.
Within six months of buying a 206 CC,
you will be buying more than one pair of shoes per year
putting the seat down after a pee
Thinking of getting a cat
Watching Bridget Jones/Reality television
Getting drunk on one glass of wine
Crying a lot
Talking about relationships
Thinking about other peoples feelings
Putting little furry things on the dashboard
Farting only once every six months
Ovulating
Is that what you want ?
Other cars powered by raw Oestroegen that should not be driven by men.
Tigra
Micra
StreetKa
Any kind of soft roader
Punto Cabrio
Anything with CC in the name
Anything Pink
Horse boxes
Semi Acceptable, if you really have to
Mini Cooper S and above, but only for junior estate agents
Puma, because its actually pretty good
Audi Cabrio (inc RS4, get one with a roof FFS)
MX5
TT
3 Series cabrio (inc M3, whats wrong with a roof ?)

Anyway, nothing wrong with mx5!

Over reacting would have been to drag him from his car like I think the Sprinter driver wanted to, anyway, like I said, there is some justifcation for Men driving an MX5.

MX5 might handle well but lets not kid ourselfs, blokes driving MX5's look like right tarts and in fact that pretty much goes for all soft tops (maybe with the exception of the S2000)

I got some pretty odd looks. When I filled it with fuel and went to pay for it, the male teenager behind the counter dropped about 3 octaves when asking for my £19
It is the campest car on the road!

Sorry clarkson......
But any man who drives an MX5 really is lacking in the ****/self respect department. Men should not drive girly cars - it's just wrong.
Totally agree with everything else J4CKO

a few weeks ago a highlighted haired chap was driving an MX-5 over the Green where I live, as he passed, roof down, waiting for admiring clances, two 10 yr old lads saw him and immediately shouted 'Oi ******' at him........I laughed all the way home

I must admit I always thought the blokes who drove MX5s were doing it to try and get attention of the women.

Lol.
When I when younger and the 206cc first came out, I saw it at the NEC motorshow, I thought it looked really nice.
I've also driven my ex-gf's streetka when it was first released. Got alot of attention from youngsters and others.
Damn maybe I am gay?????

I was wondering if certain cars are shaped like handbags in the eyes of a woman.Just wonder why every girl drives something like a clio/pug 207.
I can't escape the fact I have had to own and drive ladies shopping cars but it was many many many years ago and choice didn't come into it
Don't care how many horses they shove under the bonnet of a fast clio,still looks like something my sister would drive.

Have to say that I think I'm man enough to be seen driving a 'girls car' and take the flack accordingly.
Not that I've ever owned one except maybe a 205GTI. Let's face it they have more than whiff of the feminine about them.

While I had my Boxster S my wife & me always "debated" if it was a mans or a womans car. My view is the S is "just" a mans car & the non S very girly. Now driving a 911 (not a cab!) my view has changed - all Boxster drivers are *******.
