My brother used to design those 'on a mission' stickers as well as others. I did manage to knock a bit of sense in to him and he now apologises for the error of his ways.

What about the well'ard driving position;

Right arm fully extended, straight and positioned on the top of the steering wheel - ususally in an unwell'ard car like a Punto.

So why didn't you steer around the bus? Well I was driving in the well'ard position and that limits me to a 1/4 to 1/3 of a turn on the steering wheel.

 

Do you remember those 'Keep your distance' stickers that got bigger at the end to look like they were 3D. The new version is less polite and says 'Back off' - I just drive closer just to pee them off!!

Green 'L' plates - for people who have JUST about passed their test and they will drive like a blind dog. If I see a car with green L plates, i just get passed them as they always do 27mph, drift lanes and brake every 2 seconds.

....also, LED tyre valve caps, whilst we're at it....

Killian, could you kindly cobble together all the suggestions in this thread, and produce an updated list, please?

7. underbody neon lighting
8. get at least one more person in the car than is comfortable*
9. burberry covered passengers
10. Painted bulbs in the front and rear lights that appear to have been modified by covering them in tar!
11. Viper stripes
12. Windows that have been tinted with cling film and a black marker
13. 16v/V6 badges on 'modified' shopping trollies
14. vinyl sunstrips that are a foot deep
15. tacky-looking headlight covers which attempt to replicate twin headlights
16. Massive arials like the ones on taxis
17. Multiple fog lights
18. coloured washer jets
19. Coloured bolts (the ones that light up)
20. Tacky italic number plates

24. mesh everywhere
25. all richbrook products
26. those cheap silver painted halfords add ons
27. screwed on tailpipe trims that 'hide' (!!??!!) pea-shooters
28. tasmanian devil / yosemite sam mudflaps etc.
29. baby on board signs (but still drive dangerously)
30. People who lean into every corner they turn into*
31. seats in that are so low that all you see are a set of fingers on the steering wheel
32. alloy look hubcaps
33. stick-on "racing" fuel filler flaps/caps
34. spinning hub caps
35. the well'ard driving position*



* not a modification but annoying nonetheless

Heres an idea. What about starting a petition to get everyone of the things on the list made against the law.

PLEASE.

Didn't you lot realise that every sticker on a car adds at least 15bhp!!!!

 

Have to admit that the latest 'Rustlers' burger adverts make me laugh..the heavily modified microwaves all meeting up in carparks...sorry but that is just so good...should make all the boy racers with their go faster stripes and bad boy bonnets and eyebrows feel really really stupid...
