It’s a decently powerful car
Youngings ive seen in them have a bog standard 116d. They start to be decent at 120d. 125d will be fast. Anything up from that is just a teen around a tree waiting to happen
They work a treat.f***ing hate them. Alright mate, I was all set to plough into your boot at 80mph for a laugh but I'll hold off now I've seen your sign.
Same with twats who have 'dads taxi'. Hillarious chief, I've never heard that one before.
Bring back moonies, sticky on sun bleached garfields, and them fingers trapped in the boot latch.
Seems to be a UK issue; driving in France and North America the guidance is much clearer on approach to roundabouts. There aren't many in the US/Canada but France has soooooo many roundabouts, and they don't seem to have the issues we do.
I find the drive to work is okay but the drive home is mental. People drive like lunatics to get home and all they are doing is probably sitting in front of the TV anyway.
Not enough drivers have good anticipation and awareness. I can see 5 cars back that is clear at the roundabout but the car at front stops to a hault. It causes traffic jams and makes everyone behind annoyed.
Be up there in the morning delivering a new vw crafter to the harefield rd council depot. Nearly been arse ended a few times turning in to the depot.Built up roundabouts are an issue as well. We have a few up here in Dundee where you can't see traffic coming from the opposite direction that's turning right, and when you pull out they appear at speed from your right. Some of the fuckers are practically on two wheels they're going that fast. Combined with idiots pulling out an inch behind traffic in order to get onto the roundabout it's an accident waiting to happen. If you have to brake you're going to get sideswiped.
Yeah they have them, but not many. Same in Canada, although certain cities seem to have learnt that roundabouts are great and put loads of them in (looking at you, Kelowna, BC). Overall the standard of driving in the United States is absolutely abysmal. That is borne out in the statistics! 38,000 deaths a year.Do they have roundabouts in the US?
Drove for three weeks in California and the driving standard over there was appalling.
Saw a lad driving a fairly new Range Rover talking on a phone yesterday. Given the age of the car, be amazed if it didn't have Bluetooth fitted, so using phone can only be about arrogance, I'm so important etc etc
The amount of women who are obviously looking at a phone on their lap while driving. FFS
You’d be wrong. The latest significant drop in fatalities aligns with the introduction of speed awareness courses...not something I thought would make a difference but seemingly it has.That’s more to do with advancements in car safety technology than driving standards. Almost entirely so, I’d say
If driving standards genuinely are falling, it flies in the face of the RTC statistics which show fatalities on the decrease consistently since 1966. Even just in the last decade, they've fallen massively: there were 39% fewer fatalities in 2017 compared with 2007.
Edit: source Road accidents and safety statistics
The left lane is for team valley in 3 miles.The A1 in Gateshead is the worst road for drivers like. Full of nob heads.

Much worse IMO. You get some clowns who don't signal but they don't signal when turning right at roundabouts. Er how the fuck can you give way if we think someone is going straight on?
Idiots trying to join motorways doing about 30 MPH on the slip road, incredibly dangerous.
People who can't judge a gap. Car doing 30 about 50 yards away and they just sit there.
People who can't read the road at all. For example idiots slowing right down and then giving way to nobody at roundabouts.
The list is endless
