Lol that's just what some people assume when they see a man of a certain age driving a nice car, same as if they see a young pup driving as well, some just assume it's the rents car lol.
Wether ur knocking on deaths door or just shot out the birth canal, we both get ridiculed.

Uc em I say they are just probably jealous cos they can't afford what you have :)

Talking to a guy offshore, would think well into his 50's, 550-600 evo VII. Mid-life crisis or not, I would still like an evo at a similar age :D

Ignore and enjoy. Might try convince my dad to get one :whistling:

I always get people saying, "mummy and daddy pay for that" which grips my sh1t. I worked bloody hard to get my baby, (well, I worked, hard is debatable) I just let them know a tour to Sandy place paid for it and that jealously gets you nowhere. :D

no thats the thing that winds me up. i changed the pads on her picanto about 2 months ago, was amazed that the black gooey substance in the engine was still doing its job dont think its ever been changed and thats all that has needed doing to it since she bought it new in 2004 :eek: and on top of that she pays 45 quid a year tax. i still wont get one!!!!

evo ftw!!!

but my bro is being swayed by a kia pro ceed (they do look nice)

the pro ceed is a nice car, its nice to drive too. i know that 7 years warrenty is very good but like you said, not gonna happen

i have had the same problem with the police, i have done since my gt4. i laugh to myself now when i see them in the mirror following me. i would love to floor it one day.... :awesome:
