Spot The Poor Vauxhall!

Featured Replies

The problem with Vauxhall owners appears to be that they are jealous we have the Halfords discount card.

They have to resort to spraying their cars with glue and then ram-raiding their local motor factors.

In the window looking crap, out the back wall with every bit of tacky chrome accoutrement on the racks attached to their car.

There's a young guy who I've seen around my local area a few times who owns an old blue Astra Coupe. It has leather interior, large wheels and go faster stripes which look very DIY as they are wonky!

I saw the car in Sainsburys the other week, and a dolled up girl was sitting in the passenger seat looking very pleased with herself (like one of those who thinks she's bagged a rich boyfriend), and I thought, "it's only an Astra!"

Was her guide dog in the boot?

Her boyfriend told her it's an Aston.

He probably went "It's an Ast-'cough' 'cough'. :d

Or they're all druggies and she was high. They were smoking something and maybe he was starting out? Most dealers will start with something cheap before they can afford a BMW.

I like how the wind deflectors don't line up and he feels he needs 3 vauxhall badges on the front. The row of wonky bicycle lights is a nice touch too (Stoney - because those lights are present do they have to be in working order and properly adjusted to pass the mot? :D). The letterbox flaps bolted to the wipers really finish it off though.

Two things he would get pulled for-

Red lights on the front of a vehicle and an illegal numberplate.

I'm sure a Traffic Officer may have concerns with the extra front lights and the shin rippers in front of the wheel arch.

The sad thing is, the poor bloke obviously thinks it looks cool...

Same age as me! :D

Saw an elderly pensioner in Tesco carpark today poliahing a Vauxhall Astra with a dusing cloth,

Poor guy must have a mental illness thinking he can polish away vauxhalls heritage and reputation :lol:

I sooo wanted to say "its still a Vauxhall mate"

But i didn't have the heart,

My next thought was to say "you must really hate your kids" leaving them a vauxhall in the inheritance

But i just smiled and got in to my/vickis ford :)

OMG, I didn't realise you and Vicky were together! Wow I'm really thick lol.

:lol:

Truth be told phil, she got a bit annoyed at a finger wagging regarding content on tge open forum and as result she refused to log on,

Then two days later our 5yr old daughter dropped her phone smashing the acreen,

So vicki has no interest on th3 replacement Nokia i bought her for 15 euros/12 pounds in Argos :lol:

I believe shes purchasing a replacement phone tomorrow and should be back online soon creating a few guides of her own as mentioned last week in my build thread,

Not that i expect anyone to follow my content: just saying thats where it was mentioned,

Vickis doing guides on:

Choosing the correct fuel for your car

Topping up windscreen washer thingy

Putting pressure in your tyres

And

Parallel parking

As soon as shes had the baby i expect to see one on tyre change aswell,

But currently 7months pregnant shes already carrying a spare 24/7 :lol:
