Default Been beaten by a chav and i dont even know what it was!

Hello,

So going to pick the misses up today and overtook a BMW only to end up looking at this chaved up shit looking car that smelled like shit Only to come off the roundabout and for him to blow me away and everything esle! I know i dont own a really fast car but by the time i was doing about 60 he must of been doing 90-100+ still going faster overtaken everything! I stopped as i didn't want to have a head on with a lorry not worth that!

Dont even know what it was but it was on a P plate, reminds me of a micra or something from the back with a square number plate.

Any ideas what it was

That is all

They were group 20 in the old insurance grouping, and they're not chavved, just look like that standard.

Cheap now too and even late ones sneaking into classic car insurance.

The vast majority of them are at least 300bhp.

Weak transmissions, otherwise a good package with decent maintenance.

My mate used to have some properly 'chav' looking Corsa B, stupid bodykit, gash alloys, massive exhausts. The amount of people in standard scoobies etc. that thought they could take the piss was awesome, as they never knew it was a c20let producing 280bhp+ the look on their faces as this wank looking Corsa blew them away was priceless!

They look like a bag of shit but still can't belive the pull it had. From standard though looking like that! The crash crourse for these must of been though a halfords!

If I was expecting it then it would of been nothing but just out of the box for me.

Your a bullshitting boy racer arnt you. I offered this Mr. Bullshit a place at Vmax if he can repeat his supposed 160mph on the full 1.7mile runway i would pay his entrance fee i would also like to extend that to a Ł100 prize & his petrol paid. He like all bullshitters declined.

A Glanza is just about the best WTF car, a couple of years ago one flew past me and I had to come back and Google it, just saw the sticker on the back. Sure it wasn't standard though, it was almost bike quick.

How did it smell like shit? See my sig for what a Gtir can do.

And you want to see what one looks like from the front, oh sorry you weren't fast enough (and no, it wasn't me by the way)

Fast guy: That seemed abit arsey to me Maybe its them female pills i take

It just had a shit smell coming from it as started to go, really smelly like gone off egg

I do like a good sleeper though but if thats what they look like its not much of a sleeper lol. Lets be fair though ive only got a Fiesta ST so not the fastest thing ever just enough to overtake.
