Evo owners - why the hate??
Was out in my mk2 the other night just went for a drive as the weather was nice as such well dry, saw a few other oldskool ish cars out and about - most of them gave me a nod or flashed me but then i saw a big fat ugly bloke in a nice white evo 6, looked over and he proper clocked me, was at the lights ( he was in a differnet lane to me as i was turning right) he the lights changed and he drove past and stuck his middle finger up!! wtf!! cock oh well think he was pissed because more people will turn an eye to a mk2 escort than a evo

damm straight, when i'm out in my 1600e i "own the road" so to speak. 60k mercs get ignored as people stop and watch me go down the road . then they razz past (and bmw drivers) at the first oppertunity and try to cut in as close to my car as poss just cos they didn't get any attention and my 38 year old ford did!
M3 drivers take note, you know you've done it.

problem with SOME scooby/evo etc high power jap car owners, are they think their cars are the dogs danglies, yeah theyre good but it doesnt make the driver any better than someone else. i know of a few scooby drivers who are totally up themselves cause they think their cars own the roads. Not all are the same, and my mate gets well jealous of the looks i get in the capri

Have you thought that maybe it was just a co-incidence that this bloke was in an evo, and he'd have stuck the finger up to you in any car, maybe HE was just a twat, not the car.
Maybe you have a pre-conceived idea that because you spunk lots of money on an old car, that people are envious of you if they have an equally (or more so) expensive (but inferior) car in your eyes?
Personally, i doubt 95.3% of people could not give two fucks if you drove a 1930's Ford Model T with a tuned up twin Concorde engine in it (only my opinion of course).

Hate to say it but EVO and Scooby drivers have huge chips on their shoulder
WHY??? Your 40 and meathead with skin head and drives a proven QUICK and well sorted car. My only thought is that they have little cocks and so have the littleman syndrome - ggrrhhh Iam an angry man, I don't want you to know that my wife giggles when I get undressed

If you raced and kicked his arse, they generally HATE that, in fact making people in Evos, Scoobies, E55AMGs, etc really shown up n angry is great fun and makes owning a fast car all worth while, as so many people seem to think their cars are unbeatable just because most standard stuff cant get near em.
But sticking his fingers up for no reason is a bit odd

Mates about to buy an evo, so will see if he changes like a werewolf as the evo badge appears before him
Naturally it is a stereo type and not fair to pigeon hole all evo drivers, maybe it's because they want to look as mean as possible to deter people from calling round in the middle of the night to collect the keys

lol you get twats in all cars...it's just in 'performance' cars you tend to notice them....would you have looked over if the bloke would have been in a fiat punto? Doubt it. Then you'd never have seen him give you the bird .....maybe he was just thinking what da fook yoo looking at

Had a bloke in a corsa give me the wanker sign once, I was coming down a long road and he was coming the other way, he gunned it to scare me out of the way, so I gunned it back at him (bit daft, but honestly would have gone head on )
He swerved in at the last moment and looked pretty angry at not intimidating me, he was fooking huge so I nailed it

Tbh i dont think its the evo owners who have grown up with decent cars fast cars its just the ones that know fook all about cars that have the problem
they dont understand how a old motor can beat there 30 k evo

most evo owners i speak to are fine, the problem may be that the older evo's are now dropping to the value where a few of the 'chavs' can afford them, it happened to the cosworth & subaru
i'm generely a ford person but people who dislike evo's or subaru's should really have a good look & a drive of them, there both fantastic cars

I tend to find if you own a nice ford like a cossie or a escort or any other ford really. The people who own vauxhalls hate us,why just cause we have a better make of car than them. Lol hee hee.

Scooby’s are the new cav sri's imo, and whats with subaru owners and the clothing? They and their complete family seem to be kitted out like the flocking world rally team
I think that every subaru (new and second hand) must come with its own wardrobe full of blue subaru related attire, OR!!!! the clothing is some how linked to the immobiliser (yep that’s definitely it)
