Default Women driving their mans car

was out the other night and was watching a golf with what appeared to be 20" alloy wheels on it.

These things were HUGE and stuck way out, i nearly pissed my pants laughing when she attempted to pull up just feet over the junction of a set of traffic lights on the main road and i kid you not, she was a good 4ft away from the curb

She tried to get closer, managed to get to around 3'9" away then parked up and got out

Give that girl a polo and let her smash it up the curbs til her heart is content.

Let my ex drive my Audi, in one morning she reversed into a hedge outside my place and kerbed one of my 18's. And apparently I was the arsehole as I was annoyed about the cost to put the damage right.

I'm really picky about who gets to drive my car, but gave my ex a drive of my last Impreza one evening that I'd had a couple of pints with a meal. Within a mile of leaving the restaurant, she put her foot down in 2nd to over take a tractor, hit boost, she screamed, her brand new mobile became airbourne, hit the centre consol, then the seat rail and smashed the screen.


Cheers,
Grant

haven't got the missus insured on mine, she can't drive others on her insurance and she never will drive my series 2. not so long as i have a hole in my arse! she's a menace to herself and all other road users and has nearly had more accidents due to her idiocy than i care to remember.

My wife has drove the cossie loads of time. She has even took it to her work all on her own. She drove my old sierra hatch back that i used to have before the cossie too. She reversed into her mams drive and scufted the rear bumper on the side of the wall. When i seen the damage she reckons she never did it and started crying.

thing is why do so many woman panic like that and scream???

they are in charge of a 1.5 ton machine so they fucking panic and scream rather than just lift off the throttle

i think more attention should be paid in driving lessons to emergency stops and reactions to emergencys. Panicking when you have an emergency is the worst thing anyone can do yet so many do just that.

I guess many girls and a lot of pooftah blokes just wouldnt get a license if it involved more in depth assessment of reaction to emergency situations.


oh to be fair, we cant call such men pooftahs.... we have to be PC and call them "metrosexual", emo or "scene".

She drives my Mondeo regularly, but she's never driven the S1 and I don't want her to....she doesn't either as she's too scared she'll damage it but equally got no PAS - and with her back she physically wouldn't be able to anyway.

The wife has driven my RS6 once or twice but she isn't keen because it's a bit on the big side, she said it's like driving a bus, but she's welcome to use it whenever she likes.

My Mrs did more miles in my Escort last year than I did when she braked around 110mph and the back end stepped out she really enjoyed herself, the person behind thought she was gonna crash turns out both rear shocks were fucked, which I've now replaced

She loves driving my M3 now although she says she needs trainers and cant manage in heels. I told her I managed just fine

My missus refused to get in my FRS as she hated the "baby seats" (Puma Racing Seats with full harnesses) It's all standard interior now but she now refuses to drive it because it goes all "squiirrelly" when it comes on boost.
