Autoshite COTY 2024

[grogee]

Check your passports and get ready for a boozy junket in Nice where 'journalists' discuss this year's finest motor. 

Rules: there aren't any, except you can't nominate your own car. 

Put a picture and tag the owner, must be a 2024 picture. Votes (hearts) counted on 24th December, winner gets a speedboat and a night out with Rachel from S-Club 7.

[grogee]

I'll start the ball rolling.

@Mr_Bo11ox   Simca collection--

[grogee]

@HMC's Samara

[MrBig]

@Peter C's Sierra Sapphire 1.8L. As the man himself says "The Epitome of Autoshite".

[fatharris]

Can I just save time and nominate anything HMC  has owned this year?

 

[FakeConcern]

I'm going to nominate one I've actually seen and it's great!

@grogee

[Tommyboy12]

Id like to nominate this little trooper belonging to @rob88h

I do love a tatty Mini

[warren t claim]

I see you bunch of ungrateful twats haven't nominated my MG6. 

[grogee]

@warren t claim's MG6

[grogee]

NOMinate! 

I've just received word that Rachel had an argument with her fella at lunch and threw her Ploughman's over him in disgust before walking out of The Slug & Lettuce in Central London. 

So IT COULD BE YOU! Chances are she'll be filing for divorce soon, so you could be sliding right into her DMs in 2025.

Also, speedboat.

I am a little afraid that the winner here will find that he has won @grogee dressed as a woman for a night out and a cheap inflatable boat instead of the stated.

There may have been a slight misunderstanding. 

The 'winner' is the nominee, not the nominater. 

So I'm proud to announce that the winner, by some margin, is @Mr_Bo11ox. 

However - due to an administrative error, the date is actually going to be with Rachel Stevens' husband (pictured). 

To make up for this, the team has upped the prize from one to TWO broken speedboats! Congratulations Mr Bo11ox, and happy sailing!

If REV is not the car of this year, this is certainly the year of REV…

[Mr_Bo11ox]

Wow I never win anything, thanks all and merry Xmas. I'd just like to thank my mum and dad, everyone who voted for me, Keir Starmer and Noel Edmonds for all their help.

I've got some vague ideas about trying to drive one or more of my heaps back from the bo11ox museum in 2025 (after a 19-year slumber), if that goes ahead you guys will be the first to know coz I'm sure it'll make a good story. Cheers!
