What type of cars annoy you & why?

Mods - you can move this to the Motors section if you like, but it's not really a motoring question, as if can affect non-drivers too. So hopefully it'll stay in AH (as it's meant to be a bit of craic too). For me, it's; - Nissan Micras (ugly, always driving at 2 mph, always in the way) - Mayo Reg cars (I think the MO…

Let him go though - he did nothing illegal.

Are you sure they didn't stop him to give him a medal?

Toyota Yaris.

Simply because there isn't a good driver in Ireland who drives one

Nissan - Micra & Juke - Ugly bastard slow cars driven by grannies.

92 - 00 Honda Civics - Nearly always horribly done up and driven by idiots.

MPVs - Always doing 80 in the fast lane.

I don't know why but I love the new Opel Astra but when I see the Vauxhall version, basically the exact same I hate it.

Glanza "Turbo". It looks like a Quarter Pounder box and is usually driven by some scrote whom thinks it looks well. Especieally when it's done up. It's embarrassing.

Why? They are somewhat annoying, especially at night. I don't see the point to them.

Hate all micras, punto's and renaults in general. Also hate those shyteheap once bog standard under-powered hatches that have been given a guided tour of halfords and come out looking absolutely ridiculous with bits and pieces stuck on to make it look cool :rolleyes::rolleyes: These drivers haven't a clue.

And those jeeps with no towbar or hitch as us culchies call it should be off the road. These celtic tiger mothers with their big people carriers and wannabe jeeps should be thought how to park them and should also be thought how to slow down in them. Bloody cnuts would blow ya off the road :mad:

I hate the new Nissan Juke, it looks like someone welded a micra on top of a Primera.

On a side note since most people are talking about the people who drive the cars. I love the nissan Almera, just because most of the people who drive them are great, as in they are the ones who always let you out etc.

Not sure if this has been mentioned.

But what really annoys me is when someone goes way over the top on body parts with something like a Fiat punto, Ford Fiesta or Toyota Corola, resulting in something that looks like it should be on a star wars exibition

It's not the make of a car that bothers me really, it's just **** that haven't a clue what they're at driving them.

I dislike any 3 door Car whether it a micra, or a sportscar. I like big manly car's that ooze sex appeal like a jag or a merc. something that guzzles petrol and stinks up the air. it says to me wow this guy is loaded.

I had to look that one up: it sounds like a part of the male anatomy at first. "That's right, lad, if you pull too hard on your foreskin, you could damage your glanza." :eek:

PS: I see it's famous on boards too. e.g. this:

I like the man who drives the big petrol guzzling chick machine, to call me a broad and smack my face when i give cheek, it helps if he is a pro poker player and we are on the run from some sort of dodgy game gone wrong.

Nissan Juke, looks like it's been in a crash already with the highlights way up on the bonnet.

Nissan Tiida, especially in that turdish browny/bronze colour.

Toyota Yaris Verso. Just because.

Any "people carrier" particularly renault or citroen or the old Hyundai Trajet.

Any ssangyong jeep.

Green Scoda octavias. You don't own the road. Move over.

A variety of Toyota corolla circa 1999 with an inch of muck all over it and a towbar. Driven by a flat cap farmer at 45kpm and no faster.
