when i did my pass plus a few months ago (aww bess im only 18) the guy i did itwith was telling me to stick in the middle lane to save switching in and out and i was thinking wont i just really p!ss everyone else off doing this?

A friend had a Skoda come up behind him whilst he was in the fast lane at about 80 so he booted it, the Skoda kept up with him to what he though was about 130 mph, then the Skodas grill started flashing blue lights & subsequently pulled him over. The officer showed him the proof his speedo was pretty accurate, a definate 125. proceeded to explain that his driving wasnt dangerous, just far far to fast, explained the errors of his ways, cautioned him & then wrote him a ticket, decent copper, booked him for 84 mph

So next time a Skoda comes up behind you have a good look in the mirror before you play

Over a ton is a guaranteed ban. I don't believe any story that a police officer let someone off lightly on that one.

Well he did, he must have been lucky

Definitely shoudl have been banned for 130 though.

I enjoy annoying Bmers, Mrcs & prches Anywhere! Twonks think that cars drive themselves and it's enough just to have summats flash to go fast... And I DETEST middle lane hogs! These freakazoids cause endless hours of road-rage.

Skoda horn's are crap, we need to upgrade

YouTube - fun with train horns

Or even better YouTube - Bigger than a Train Horn #2 (Ferry Horn)

I tend to get the people who think they can take me to take an exit then figuring out they can't, braking and swerving across to take the exit - even though I maintained a steady speed. I don't understand it myself. It's usually Audi's Mercs, BMW's that sort of car.

I've noticed some middle lane morons but none that have really caused me any trouble. I just tend to check that they're not pulling back in and undertake swiftly and decisively. I probably should try the flashing thing though really.

Probably best not to flash but give them an eye burning 5-10 second full beams on.

My octy 2 has a great horn, perhaps your is not working properly

The horn on the favorit is maybe the size of an ashtray mounted behind the radiator. My guess is it's a pre-vw part. Being 13 years old it probably isn't at it's peak though.

My Felly Horn isnt too bad

Definately more masculine than a a new shape Zafiras horn that I hired earlier in the year.

Swapped my Feli horn for a Stebel Nautilus, absolutely brilliant, it puts out 139 dB :thumbup:

managed to get 2 for 20quid plus postage on Ebay, they normally sell for more than that much each, the other i fit on the wifes micra, what a squeaky little horn that had.

They really make people jump :D

yeah and is F*cking scary,

when some t*wat comes up behind you in a hummer and beeps to his mate coming the other way.

How did you mount it?

I suppose if there was somewhere else suitable to mount it all you have to do is intercept the wire that goes to the horn and leave the radiator alone :)

note to self: get a 7ucking but horn!

Whats the big deal, just overtake them in the 3rd lane, if there bad drivers your going to want to get as far away from them as possible anyway!

And captain........ BUY THE VRS! u only live once! I bought mine as a 21st birthday present to myself which has put me in debt for 5 years and i couldnt be happier!!!!

I haven't bought the VRS. Think it's been sold now anyway.

I had a close encounter with a Beemer who was closet Skoda fan

This guy in a 530d was on the inside lane approaching a lorry between 56-60mph, I'm in the middle lane doing 65. I spy a Focus flying along in the outer lane. The Beemer indicates and pulls out inches from my front bumper just when this Focus blasts past at about 80-90

Did see a Few VRS'

A Black one with the plate something like 55OGC

and a Red one (just to narrow it down :D )

seen a new Fabia on the motorway and it looks dinky on the mway!!!

Unusual, a beemer with indicators

couldn't have owned it long :D

My best yet is the marc doing 90+ with both wing mirrors still folded in! Made sure to stay well away from him.

:eek::eek:

i've seen people driving with one mirror still folded. But 2 is beyond belief!!

Could be faulty electrics as aren't those posh cars supposed to fold them in then fold them out when driving?

This thread has made me laugh so far, keep it up :D

Yeah same here!

i have a three-tone cadillac air-horn thankyouplease.

and can we stop with all the rants? most of you are showing how recklessly you've driven yourselves. if you didn't get worked up about minor infractions that these people mostly dont even realise they're making, your lives would improve vastly. try it.

I had some stupid chavvy person in an escort van almost take my front bumper off.

Driving home from Wigan. He was in the wrong lane heading right back towards Warrington and decided to cut into the lane going straight on to Aspull/Bolton without indicating.

Grrrrr
