Well'ard geezers in 10 year old Vectras
 

Do they really think that they look cool, with their elbows out the window and their prematurely balding heads? :o

I guess they want to look like they're just about to do a Bank job. Their dream ride would be a dark 10 year old Range Rover with a pair of pretend sawn-off 12 bores in the boot. :lol1:

I think they just look like tits.

Fun trip to work then?? :lol1:


Cheers,

not really a world apart from impreza turbo drivers in their 10 year old cars ;)

I think most of them are currently down here in Cornwall...

LOL i had one come in yesterday for a carwash :lol:

Bit of a mini beefcake, not the most polite bloke, tracksuit bottoms and the obligatory nike air max trainers :D

"here mate, am gonna use this voucher i got from me insurance company aye?"

"What`s the date on it mate?"
"November"
"No problem, pull around and i will put you in, is that your vectra parked up"
"Aye" :lol:
"You do realise that you will be entering the wash at your own risk with low profile tyres fitted?"
"Ehh? what the **** for? this is bull**** i want my free wash" :lol:
"You can have your free wash, no problem, pull around and i will put you in, but we are not liabel for any wheel damage if your alloys are not in spec with the various warning signs"
"Here, give us that ****en voucher back, i will get the pakies down the road to do it instead" :eek:
"Mate, that voucher will not work at any other wash unless it is an ARC one"
"This is ****en bull****!"


He then left, smoking his tyres :lol: :lol:

a site called modzextreme is full of vaux drivers.

its all corsa this vectra that and even the cav !

oh and how can i forget the nova

Sticky - people like that make me embarrassed to be a human being. What a COMPLETE cock.

okay, i freely admit impreza drivers are not like that... usually.

I know exactly what you mean, I was thinking the same thing yesterday, they accesorise them as well, sometimes Lexus lights, stripes and all the other parpahenalia from Halfords, the V6 seems to attract the Alpha Male nob as well, that said one stopped to let us across the roundabout when walking with the kids to go for a meal, he had to brake from about eighty though.

I am not against old cars, Vectra's in particular but driven sensibly, unadorned with the windows up and no music blaring out they are fine, if you have such a car, dont draw attention to it !

J4CKO realises the irony of his post having a Saab 9-3 Aero which is basically a Vectra underneath, its just a middle class acceptable version of the same.

intrestingly iv notice the same trend with this motor

I think the same blokes used to have Vauxhall Senators, used to be ranks of them parked at the computer fair at Bowlers in Manchester, always driven by fat, shaven headed blokes with Megadeth T shirts and a key chain off their Farah slacks.

Chavvy 40 year olds in SRi V6 Vectras who take on anything in their super quick Vectras (Ferraris and Porkers especially) and tells his missus 'hey Shaz ah we're all over is arse then' :lol1: and drive like c*cks as to make a point.

FFS your forty not feckin' 18 anymore.

must say i have owned a vec previous to the scoob, i am also a moderator on a Vec owners club, BUT.... i know what you all mean about SOME (not all) Vectra drivers, there are a few that actually spend quite a bit on there cars, and modify them tastefully.

My favourite are the V6 drivers that seem to think they can beat anything on the road, then you got the ones that stick a K&N (well Max Power) on the car then think its a rocket ship.

Vectras, old beemers, old mercs, old ranges.....doesn't matter what the car is, the driver profile is often the same :D

Come on admit it you're just mad because some fat middleaged gimp in a vectra smoked you at the lights :D

Also with the near assault you mentioned in another thread, nice area you work in isn't it :) Or you could be talking out of yer arse :D

Is a ectra V6 actually quick ?

Have to say I heard one with an aftermarket exhaust recently and it sounded superb, not superb for a Vectra, just compared to anything, was quite dissapointed when I saw where the noise was coming from.

Are you Quentin Wilson ?
:wonder:

Just went on this website, its hilarious! I love the 'slammed' corsas and the diesel BMW that revs to over 7k... "off the clock!!!" :lol1:

mmm might have to go and join that site for a giggle

Tempted to go and see if any fancy racing my diesel estate car with no mods...

Tee hee...

Mattee you'll keep doing this until someone wipes the floor with you in something plain/ordinary looking and then you'll sulk and not want to play racey anymore :D

Hey - that'll just serve me right.

A mate was very chuffed with his B7 RS4 and was "cruising" around Bristol. Some chavvy hatch pulled up alongside him at the lights - my mate grinned, floored it and..


....got completely blitzed! Must have been a proper conversion!

Three months later he went to MTM for a supercharger...

There is a guy that works in company next to mine. I would say he is late 30s. Piece of **** Vectra SRI with Halfords alloys and a rather naff looking chrome tail pipe. Whenever he sees me he blips the throttle... :cuckoo::cuckoo::cuckoo:

What a TIT

SRI = as fast as a decomposing turd.

GSIs are more useful but still handle like total cack (to the point of being dangerous). Vectras have always been joke cars.

Forgive me for stating the obvious, but doesn't that describe a good proportion of Impreza drivers too? :wonder:



;)

Yes i agree totally, you get a lot of Impreza drivers that think there cool driving a piece of 3K crap:lol1::lol1: At the end of the day is a 3K car

A mk1 Escort is can be a £3k as can many classics - that doesn't mean they are crap. Value is meaningless. After all many might consider an ST a £20k piece of crap (not me though)...

A MK1 escort is a old classic. I dont see how you can compare that with a ten year old Scooby

Yes but you can get a lot of car for £3k including some classics - so why judge a car on it's value?! I judge cars on what they actually are, not what they might be worth.
