I love seeing this too, happens on the m40, especially around show season! I just try not to be in l2 as it happens as the frightened audi/merc/bmw becomes unpredictable... 

Haha yeah. Like the ones that just tank through the average speed cameras.

Good little xsara! 

Fueled up at 06.45am at asda, York by 10, Peterborough by 12.40, Alwalton by 2, St Albans by 5 and home not long ago! 

460 miles on bang on 3/4 a tank! Was some fast bits too (on the a1 it was either 45/50 in l1 or whatever l2 was doing. I chose l2...) 

Its been nice to go out for a drive really. Usually I can't afford it as I spend so much on fuel to go to work, but today it was just me, the car and the open* road!

Got this little lot to sort out now too, thanks @Jon!

Hungry now...

I'd love to say "I found this on reddit"

Nope, it arrived via whatsapp.

 

 

Its a 2006 Big Fat Cunto. "She tops it up with oil"

 

The oil filter? Fell on deaf ears.

 

P.s. She's had the car 6 years.

 

The garage said the plugs have never been changed and fell apart.

 

She said the car feels brand new after a service.

Whilst talking to @Jim Bell today, I forgot that I never sent him this or indeed, shared it on the forum.

Check the mega brain fart, by me! Turn your sound on.

So my dad had my truck, which meant I came home from his in his Mondeo estate. Having already parked my own Mondeo estate in front of my MR2 on the drive.

My grey matter must have decided that I was in my own car, and due to the Rexton being off site, that I still had a car length behind me. 
I didn’t. ?

No damage at all to either car, thankfully. Impact was rear to rear and square on, like it was laser guided.

What a tatey!

There must have been a pay & play somewhere near Kimbolton, I passed the esso station on the A1 roundabout and it was full of them! About 15 miles later, one shot past me. Was a P38 range rover, fully lifted and with massive wheels, straight through exhaust and a snorkel. Bodyshell was stock. Made a lovely sound as it fucked on by. Was nice to see one that hadn't been bobtailed tbh

Dress like her next time !

Dressed like that, if you're anything like the average poster on here, they'll give you free stuff until you leave!

Grin for today-drove back from Brighton to Folkestone, this waited until we were parked outside our own house to fall off:

DVLA get a lot of stick on here but after selling my old Micra on Wednesday last week and just getting the online change of keeper thing done before the 7pm cut-off, on Saturday I got the V11 through and the cheque for the tax refund came in this morning's post.
That's basically two working days plus a day in the post. Take a bow, Swansea. ?

Are bobtail P38s a thing? A rather more involved hackjob than the Jurassic RR.

The online service is pretty bang on to be honest. Usually get a new V5 through within a few days.
