Strange person

[lewis_sharman]

First time this has happened to me, but yesterday when driving the Chim back from Daventry, a lorry driver driving in the opposite direction shouted C**T at me as he drove past, whilst my gf was in the car too.

It does'nt really bother me too much, its just annoying as i can't get my head around the thought process

I'm sure he felt very big and clever shouting at a 20 year old minding his own business

[Tuscan Wil]

Never mind, you were the one driving the TVR and he was driving a lorry!!

[hawkespcs]

might of been because you was driving a chimaera. and not a griff. and if you was he would of said a w***** i had that shout at me once. just have to smile back at them. one hell of a life if thats the enjoyment. its a sad world we live in these days. then again he might of had coprolalia poor sod

Being in Scotland, someone shouted tw@t at me the other day. Its a fine Scottish word. I just laughed as he was in a Datsun 350Z hairdresser special (His mums I think).

[Tamster.]

Sounds like the most ultimate insult, a lorry driver mistaking your Chim for a golf CART

[ncs]

I had that happen to me once.

Sitting at the lights & the bloke in the lane next to me called me a .

"You might well be right" I replied.."But at least Im a in a TVR"

The one that really winds me up is "oh is that your dads car?"

Convertibles attract it - you are vunerable in a convertible. In my Chim I was spat at in Reading, wonker sign in Matlock, burning cigarette thrown in in Wargrave.
In my cerbs never any real problems (apart from complaints re the noise).

Best one of these I had was turning up at halfords for a few cleaning supplies a lady said is that your dads car.
I said he wishes! At the same time my dad was just coming out of halfords! He came past and said I'm his dad and I really do wish if was mine! Haha it was priceless as she came across as a bit stuck up! He then got in his van and drove off!

I don't want to look like a poser I just love TVR's and anytime I can I get her out for a drive.

Tourettes ?

Was out with the lotus boys and girl last weekend around the roads of essex. Had a bloke stand out in the road and try to damage the cars as we drove past. He managed to grab Lisa's wing mirror as she had to almost stop. I was behind and took this as a act of agression and retalliated with the only reasonable response. Floored it and went straight for him! Scared the crap out of him. I see this as self defence rather than attempted man slaughter Needless to say i dont take crap from anyone unless it is justified

Me two had a few guys hanging out the window of a new hummer H3 giving me the thumbs up and wanting me to floor it past them so the could hear it was a good few miles of petrol head fun on the bypass a few weeks ago.
