Cool My wife dealing with some douchebag ...

Office conversation yesterday between my wife & some sexist guy she works with;

Him - "...of course, you wouldn't be interested in cars, you're more the loving eco-hippy girl type."

Wifey - "Gotcha. So what car do you drive?"

Him - "A Nissan Micra. It's ... why, what do you drive?"

Wifey - "Subaru Impreza WRX Prodrive."

I like her style

Wifey had something similar. Had some team building exercise crap and she had to do a fact / bluff thing - all the guys called her bluff when she said "I've got an Impreza".

It's like big boys top trumps.

Obviously when you're a guy driving an Impreza, people think you're an idiot with a small ***** (not that I mind people think that of me because IT'S SOOOO FAAAASSTTTTT*). But for some reason, a women driving one is genius. Maybe because it's perceived as a 'man's car'.

*the car, not the *******

That has to be the worst chat up line since the dawn of time. What a ***.

(You've got to be subtle about these things, just put the key on the bar with the BMW logo clearly displayed whilst searching your pocket for some loose change to pay for the drinks with )

Don't know which would be worse for a woman, going to Blackpool or a BMW driver getting up on her.

Yep, as soon as I got mine all I was doing was 150mph on the roads around here, it was a stupid car to have in these parts, what on Earth did I want one of those things for etc. etc.

I am lucky however. The missus hates being a passenger, let alone get in the pilot's seat.

Perhaps she believes all she hears down the pub.

I genuinely think you have the best of both worlds mate.

Something very sensible and minimal cost for day to day use, understated and reliable.

And a monster for weekend fun. Must seem even quicker with a Micra as a daily lol

The Nissan Micra is known to be the first choice of silver haired grannies on the way to the garden centre.
Now, I'm a pensioner but the only way you would get me to drive one of those dreadful things is to graft a GTR engine into one! My free bus and tube pass is a preferable alternative to driving a Micra.

Should have stayed quiet then offered him a lift somewhere. Driving like miss Daisey until the engine has warmed up then smack his head against the back of the seat when doing some overtaking and maybe the odd cheek imprint on the passenger window when cornering.

GREAT thread.

This is about Subaru afficionados as far as I'm aware, whatever gender.

I'm proud to be a human being.

Petrolhead/car geek insight: What is the worst thing about the current Nissan Micra?..

Answer: Its a Renault Clio.

A fusion of two marques that can only be compared to the Alfa Romeo Arna (another Nissan). Whereby the French do some of the electronics (and some engines) and the Japanese do the styling. Making them both horrid to drive, horrible to look at, horrible to sit in. Albeit the Nissan is slightly more reliable.

Further factoids...like most modern Renaults they also don't fit properly on the average two post lift either. (can still be lifted, but it can't be done using the jacking points)
