Vauxhall!!! Grrrrrrr!!!!

I normally keep quiet about this topic, so I bet none of you have ever heard me mention how much I HATE vauxhalls? No? I thought it would be news to you all.

Today I went to the Mcdonalds drive thru (all of the idiots seem to congregate there!) at which point there was two zafira's ahead of me, and an astra behind me (talk about a rose in a thorny bush, eh?)

Anyway, Mr Zafira in front, took about 8 minutes to order his food, umming and arring, after (seriously I counted this!) 16 order combinations and changes (and also mentioning he wanted a whopper?) he FINALLY moved off.... after ordering only 4 food articles...

Now, to top it off, having wasted 8 minutes of my life, the fool eventually drives through, and doesnt pay! he then drives off out of the drive thru for whatever reason :@ SERIOUSLY!!!!



lol it's always funny when you start a topic about Vauxhall, they really are against you aren't they! What did you do to them in a past life? And ordering a whopper from mcdonalds, surely everyone knows they come from kfc?

Haha, yeah I hate them vengeance doesn't start to cover it, but I'm beginning to think I will make myself in the next life a vauxhall destruction expert with the intention of taking every darn vauxhall and blowing it to Kingdom come...

Jeebs, that's not how it works mate...you're more likely to come back as a sodding Vauxhall :D

Oh the irony lol, you driving to McDonalds and your car being the meat in a Vauxhall sandwich!

I predict you'll come back as the manager of the local Vauxhall dealer :)

If I do there's going to be a terrible accident, one of the 'test' drives is going to result in a terrible accident. A petrol leak will develop and the petrol will accidentally spread around the entire sales venue, and after the manager had locked up and very carelessly smokes a cigarette... He will them drop a half lit cigarette onto the petrol and there will be lots of big booms.

there will be lots of big booms.

And a large crowd of cheering Ford owners I suspect ;)

Yup :-D

I might dress up as a ninja and see if I can practice before then :-P

Though I'm sure ninjas do not hobble on a walking stick.... Perhaps I shall recruit a trainee....

Cigarette doesn't have the thermal energy to ignite petrol

However...Zippo lighters are still very common - and have been known to remain lit when dropped...accidentally of course...

Sounds a plan to me

Some of these topics make my day.

What gets me that my local ford dealer is vauxhall as well ??????

Ford one side vauxhall the other,all under same roof sales/service/parts,

Love to be a 'fly on the wall' as they say in that sales room.

Haha that would be fun.

Really what group is that?

I'd rather insert rusty red hot razor blades into an unmentionable orifice than buy a Vaux**ll.

Are we talking front or back?

I would take it one step further and say every orifice, simultaneously...

It's red hot metal, so they would become connected.

And yet the idea of my waste having a choice of available exits, still seems to offer more choice than the vauxhall range and standard of owning a griffin with a disease that infects most owners to become absolute bags of useless.....

Mate, you're into some weird stuff :rolleyes:

:D

Is it a bad time to mention that I prefer the new Corsa to the Fiesta?

*Awaits being banned* :P

No need to wait my friend, its all been taken care of.

All in hand ;-) the punishment squad are on route to his address, there is a corsa, a very large box, an air tank and 4000 tonnes of gravel on route.

The punishment is to be buried alive inside a corsa for 72 hours.... That' l teach him!

You know me! :P

Don't worry I'd never have one, I'll stick to my Foci ta. :D
