Haha, well there you go then!  Remember cheap/low spec cars are aimed towards people like her and my Nan.  'Car people' tend to opt for something with a better spec...I can't imagine buying a brand new car without alloys myself! :blush:

My grandad tried to get the Nissan dealer to downgrade the alloys on his Nissan Note to Steelies :rolleyes:

Luckily my Dad told him otherwise!

 

Funny how Toyota Prius have alloys, that are covered with hub caps, am assuming that something to do with streamlining and airflow. The 5 spoke alloys actually look alright!

Why the :censored: would you put cable ties on ALLOYS!?  Mind you, it's a Vauxhall owner so God knows what goes on in their heads.

^ Yeah I thought that was a concept car.

I don't have a photo, but someone at work has a Vauxhall people carrier (maybe a Meriva or whatever it's called). It's only just over a year old and already the engine sounds like a rusty old tractor lol.

Doesn't surprise me!  12 months is more than enough time to wear out a Vauxhall engine.

The think that stands out to me is That Face in one of the pics. Must be a disliker of vauxhalls and let their identity slip.

I have come up with an ultimate insult on the roads. Twice today I have seen fellow fordians who can't drive... My response was.... (modified for forum viewing) fluff off and buy a vauxhall. It's about where their driving standards where

I second that jeebowhite. I see it every day and sometimes it makes me ashamed to be driving a ford.

I've seen quite a few Fords (mainly Focus') with very poor driving skills recently.  Whilst we don't own a Ford at present and aren't likely to for a while, my heart still lies with the blue oval and it is saddening to see the brand so badly portrayed.

Most likely!  In the past week I have seen two local driving instructors who use Corsas as their learner cars.  Makes me glad I went with an instructor who uses an Audi.  I don't think I could live with the shame of learning to drive in a Vauxhall.

I had a 1.5tdci Fiesta... 

Loved it. 

And true that mate. It would be like HALF passing your test if you had to pass in a Vauxhall. 😉

Shocked as one of our own Ford drivers drives like a Vauxhall Cords, 

Yield ? No way 😦

Actually I'd say you did better if you pass in a Corsa, due to the wayward handling (yes, I did learn and do my test in a Corsa).
