Dreaming of shite

[SambaS]

I borrowed my mates Cavalier one time and was driving on the Exelby - Bedale back road when I fell asleep at the wheel. I woke up as the car was barrel rolling into a field and each time it hit the ground I felt myself going deeper into unconciousness. I just remember thinking this next one's going to kill me.

[SambaS]

Another one that stands out. I was in the back seat of my own Charade in my car park. Two guys in the front weren't happy with me, the guy in the passenger seat was a twat trying to wind me up but the guy in the driver seat had a shotgun in my face. I was pleading for my life and the passenger was goading him to do it. Then all of a sudden BANG and I could taste blood, a strange smell and ringing in my ears then I must have died.

[purplebargeken]

You obviously lead an interesting, yet somewhat curiously charmed life. Remind me not to meet you whilst in the vicinity of anything car or shotgun related

[Partridge]

I dreamt I drove a weird Kia Carens/Ford Galaxy mix breed thing. It had a very decent sat nav radio thing, and very good all round visibility.

I’ve also dreamt about driving a red M plate (M636 JTP was the full number-I must be eating way too much cheese before bed) 323i, on E46 M-Sport alloys. I can remember everything, down to the how the buttons looked to control the electric seats to the air vents. Of all the detailed dreams I could have, why did I have to dream abut THAT?

[CreepingJesus]

Very odd, but the reg number D252AVM keeps coming into my dreams. It's been attached to various things (R5 Turbo and Rangie to name but two), but it's never a good association. In fact it's almost as if the dream's warning me to stay the hell away from the thing, if I ever find it for real.

[CreepingJesus]

Does that mean it's 'available' then? Or has it just dropped off the system? Hmmm...

A decent haul last night. Firstly I got £100 reward for the safe recovery of a mates Suzuki GSX600R (Manx registered) then a couple of people thrust £650 into my hand for a gold Montego 1.6l with a hand painted black bonnet and to finish off a scrappy sold me an immaculate one owner 1.3 three door beige Sierra base after telling me that he hadn't filled out the COD on it, £250 plus another £50 for the wheels. I also managed to sell an Irish registered Kia Sportage for £500!

 

If only my waking world was as happy.

[CreepingJesus]

My dreams lately, have often featured me buying the cheapest old Renner Premium I can find, and making my fortune* doing subbie work for Tesco.

In conclusion, my subconscious hates me.

[Mr Livered]

I don't appear to have posted here since 2008. Did you miss me?

 

Lots of shite-related dreams lately. I'm currently on the lookout for one or two more cars, and regularly dream about the buying process, ebay disasters, etc. We live atop a steep hill that doesn't get gritted in winter, so my preference is for fwd or 4wd cars - however in last nights dream I had purchased a Dolomite and Mrs Livered was far from happy, shall we say, after going for a drive in it and ending up crashing into someone's house halfway up the hill. Which, in fairness, would be quite likely to happen if she drove a Dolly home in the ice.

 

Probably my subconscious telling me that the orange Dolomite I've been looking at might not be a very good idea.

[Station]

Had a dream Pete-M kept a load of old 70's shite supercars. In the boot of his SD1.

[CreepingJesus]

Come to think of it, I had a dream the other night, that I owned one of each of the generations of Mazda RX-7. And I bored everyone I know to tears, with detailed descriptions of the material science of rotor tips. It was a strangely satisfying dream.

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

I dreamed of buying a scooter on eBay. When I went to collect it, I told the seller I was buying it to commute on. Then she brought it out and it was a tiny child's toy scooter which ran off batteries. To save face I maintained that I would be using the scooter for my commute. 

 

Also, while carrying my scooter home I came across a skip in the road full of chocolate bars. Since they were sealed I started eating them, at which point a man came out of a house and told me that they'd been used in medical experiments and were poisonous. 

 

Pretty bad day all round.

I had a dream last week that a work mate (who doesn't live anywhere near me) offered to give me a ride home from work in his car, I was really excited when I found that he owned a early 80's Nissan Sunny 4 door which was blue with cream interior.

 

We had to stop at a garden centre on the way home as he needed some compost for his roses, whilst i sat in the car waiting the vampires from the film The Lost Boys came out of garden centre and started to attack the car with me in it still, at first i was really scared then my horror turned to anger as the bastards started to kick of the mudflaps.

 

It set me up in a really shitty mood all day.

[SambaS]

Last night a member of Autoshite collected a white Samba S for me, looked the real deal, then when I went to sign the log book it said Style on it and the engine size wasn't 1360cc. So I got really angry and pulled the carpets up and low and behold silver underneath. So I drove it back to some strange futuristic glass fronted house where the seller was round the back with friends having a drink, and demanded my £1090 back.

A recent dream had me delivering timber to a bunch of Jews hiding from the Nazis, I delivered the wood and then helped them by stitching in a repair panel on their Capri Laser. 

 

Last night I dreamt I was driving an early Sierra to a transport cafe.

[Station]

Had a dream I went on a massive booze and cocaine binge with Brad from Neighbours, and then went off roading on grass verges near my mums house in my dad's old black Porsche 911 which I had started to repaint using a bottle of white tippex. I remember seeing my face and it was covered in cocaine powder, and worrying I may be arrested soon. The 911 had a front bench seat which was about 20 foot wide.

[Asimo]

I bought this shite from a Lancia dealer. Night before I was due to collect I dreamed of a red Lancia Gamma that morphed into a vampire, flapping it's doors and chasing me. I tried to kill it with a stake through the bonnet and awoke screaming "die you bastard".

 

*I was lucky to get out of that car only a few hundred down after 6 months. Water and oil trying to change places. And other issues. Lots of them.

[Shep Shepherd]

I still have dreams featuring The Volvo, which invariably end badly, with the car being damaged or destroyed in some way

[Lord Sterling]

Years ago, probably before I had a licence, I had a dream about driving a W123 Mercedes 200 across a brown field taking a short cut instead of the proper route I had been driving on. I was angry/pissed off about something.

 

More recently, less shitey and rather more disturbingly, I had a dream about picking Sister_Sterling up from a school/college (she is not at college yet) in a Blue BMW e90 3-series. I was even suited/booted up like an office worker. What gives?

 

Its interesting to see that many here seem to remember little details of thier dreams. I must admit, mine were sometime ago, even the BMW one I had must have been from a year or two ago so all the little details might have been forgotton.

[cms206]

No recent shite dreams but SWMBO was apparantly rudely awakened by me talking in my sleep (again) last night. I can only assume it was shite related as I loudly exclaimed "Oh for fuck's sake, not another one!", rolled over and went back to sleep.

 

[Station]

Haha.

[jmsguzzi]

Latest shite dream includes shite spotting near a fictionalised version of my Grandmas house. I found a Maserati Quattroporte and a farm full of Rover SD1's. Another one was finding out my Dad had 2 Renault 11's and 2 Clan Crusaders stashed away at a house he lived at before i was born. Both dreams involved me waking up disappointed.

[warren t claim]

I'm using nicotine lozenges to cut down on the tabs so vivid dreams are a certainty.

[purplebargeken]

It's 08.32am on a Sunday. The rest of the household are asleep. I'm sat in front of the PC reading about an increasingly weird bunch of dream-shite and tears of laughter are literally running down my face and I am chuckling away like a daft bastard. You have to love this thread.

Fuck, I just nearly puked from laughing so much.

Last night was pretty mundane, I dreamt I'd bought a white 2009 Peugeot 208 for £2995. It was pretty well specced for a base model as well. 

[warren t claim]

Things are getting worse, for the last couple of nights I've been dreaming about Minis and Vauxhall Omegas. The problem is other shiters were in the dream as well, fortunately not in a kinky way.

[mercrocker]

I keep having dreams about shite I no  longer own, mostly one of my Zephyr 6s and the Pontiac.   I dream they are perfectly restored and kept hidden away.   I also have dreams about a Mk 1 Consul that I know I never owned but I wake up convinced that I have!    I also  recently dreamt about a P5 Rover that nearly killed me on the M3, I can remember test-driving one about 30 years ago and having  the brakes fail so maybe thats where that came from.   Largely, however, I am afraid to sell anything now in case it haunts me in the night.  

[fordperv]

i had the strangest dream last night, mrs fordperv had a crusty white 5 door fiat uno (probably the one in ebay tat thread as i was admiring it last night before bed) and she was doing experiments to make a time machine, firstly the year was selected by twanging 4 guitar strings that were held taught by the open glove box while pressing the window wash button, then when that didnt work it turned to an old ford type stereo where you had to put the code in as 4 digits but instead of the code you put the year you wanted in, unfortunately i didnt get to finish the dream as i woke up

[dugong]

Last night I dreamed I bought Nigel Bickle's Isuzu 117 for £2167.91 (that exact amount, printed in Comic Sans MS), except it was that mad copper piss colour you could get Peugeots in. 

I took it home via the A50 and it was properly quick. I pulled over to have a look under the bonnet and it turned out the car was powered by a rucksack.
