When in reality, as anything other than what it is, ie a mini-MPV, it's a POS

I pity these people

They are so unhappy with their lives, and so envious of everything around them, that they must make up a fair few suicides



That is so true!

Zafira GSi - get a fcuking grip man, you cannot rice a dustbin!

I also forgot to mention that I'm currently sporting my yearly choice of mad hair, nothing to flash, no fashionable mullets, no highlights, just good old shaved hair with a difference. I do get some funny looks, makes me smile though.

Last year I had a maze shaved into my head, this year it's a joke inspired half and half

see below....

No wonder Zafira boy was bricking it. Vin Diesel after an amphetamine diet was waiting outside for him.

Tell that to Vauxhall - they have released, or are about to release, a Zafira VXR!

I'm quaking in my boots

There used to be a company called Overfinch

put big American V8s in Range Rovers

that produced similar levels of delusion about high performance in cars with a high centre of gravity

all a VXR Zafira is likely to achieve, is an increase in child mortality

what are they playing at?

Had one of those souped up Range Rovers at the lights when I was driving the Testarossa.....he got the edge on me....having said that I was pulling away in 2nd..

next set of lights I started in 1st.......


I really don't understand why people driving lower spec motors can be so obstructive to quicker motors....when in the Corrolla I move over for faster machinery whenever possible and I don't even currently have anything that could be considered in any way fast

I've already explained it Z

don't you buy my argument that

bitter/twisted/envious = obstructive

you can stir in self-righteousness, which would explain why the obstructiveness can occur whatever car you happen to be in

but it's much worse when you are in a perceived 'flash' motor

which decodes to 'better than theirs, and one they'd like to have if life hadn't been such a bitch'

why else would it happen?

Don't forget too add double standards and hypocritical in there somewhere too.

I get this so much driving back and forth every sodding weekend it does my head in.

I need to get me a slower motor....
