Default RS Stigma--what have they got??????

Was talking to one of the foremen at work today who is into his cars ect, and when i told him i had a Sierra RS Cosworth he said "You have one of them? Has it been used in many bank Jobs"

Just wondering on what peoples reactions are when you say what you drive.

most people reply with "Oh, not a saxo/corsa/putcarhere then?"

then theres one or 2 who keep replying to me with "you need 400bhp, and my car has a superchip with torquesteer"

people like that fuck me off

ME = I have a sierra cosworth

RANDOM BLOKE = I always wanted 1 of them

same response about most old fords ie mk2 rs2000s etc then they normally go off on 1 and start telling me about how there brothers uncles dads cousin had a sierra cosworth and that there was nothing like them back then

Well i got a skyline so i am officially god to almost everyone under the age of 25

Was in the bank the other day transferring money to a company and the blonde piece who was doing it goes "do you mind me asking what this is for?" and i just said its for some parts for my car. and she asks what car it is and i said a skyline, and she nearly wet her pants "ooh ooh i love them soo much, my friend wants one too, she test drove one the other day, ooh gotta show me once its done" etc etc.

And thats pretty common TBH

Normally I'm tarred with the "Boy Racer" brush and asked when I'll grow up

A lot of people know the badge but a lot also don't have the first clue about them as the pub BS tends to prove. We've all been there listening to some chav twat talking utter bollocks about them.
