Did you lease a 1-series?

If so, any good? I'm tempted.

 

[Dmac1969]

It's not always big

Its also not always bright enough to be seen over the plethora of LED DRLs , driving lights etc - bring back simple cars without all that shite festooned over them

Don't be jel, Pip. There's plenty of leased German automobiles with large mark-ups for the badge alone to go around.

Totally agree - I just laugh at them and their motors are falling apart. What is it with the mucky black paint job? They accelerate away but cannot keep the acceleration going for long.

Where do you get those baseball caps with the peaks at the back?

I like to wind these shitehawks up at lights. Let them try and beat me in their 1.2 Corsa. I just floor it and leave them struggling going from 2nd to 3rd gear at 30mph

Neither of you could beat my C1, soz.

Shame to knock your end in, but what about my Rolls Canardly ?

Rolls down one bank, can ardly get up the next.

I’m not keen on these cars that have the indicator incorporated into the head light and no side repeaters it really hard to see them indicating

I'm fairly sure they all have repeaters!

I’m sur the jukes and suchlike don’t have side repeaters I’ll have a proper look when I’m out and about today

I was sure it was needed to pass an MOT. @Goat Eyes ?

So say the RAC:

“Drivers are being temporarily blinded by modern vehicle headlights, according to an RAC survey.

Two-thirds of drivers say they are "regularly dazzled" by oncoming headlights even though they are dipped, the survey of 2,061 motorists suggests.”

I’ve thought this for a while. Seems like every bloody new Audi that goes past blinds with me the ultra bright new headlights. I guess they’re LEDs?

I completely agree. And I'm convinced there's a large percentage of twats driving about without them tilted properly anarl.

 

[GingerNick]

is it not just the case of the trend being for these crappy compact SUV style cars so the headlights are higher

They’re in the wing mirrors.

 

[Giddup Sausage!]

They are a f***ing nightmare like, especially in the 4x4s that are higher up and so blind you in every mirror when behind. We regularly drive down a dark lane with no lights towards Chester-le-Street and when you get these twats on the road you literally cannot see the road infront they blind so much.
