Just had a wierd experience.
As my D3's off the road [don't ask] I had to use swmbo's car.
It's a honda civic sport.
Well, just scraped my backside off the tarmac over the 3 miles I drove.
What a wierd feeling - I haven't driven a car for over a year !!

When my other arf had a Mazda RX8 I hated driving it. Mainly because when I drove it I got strange urges to buy hand bags, get a manicure and a curly perm For use of a 4x4 site and driver training pm me

I hate 'cars'!! They should be banned!! All that bloody congestion and traffic and stuff. You can't go anywhere these days without a bloody car gettin' in the bloody way. And while you're at it, ban that tarmac stuff too! Bloody hard, noisy, boring crap everywhere. Most of it doesn't even GO anywhere either! Who says that I have to stay on it?! I bought a Land Rover to rove the bloody land, not rove the soddin' tarmac! Did I mention that I hate cars?!! I had one once, back in '92. Awful thing. Never done that since! Have had the displeasure of driving swmbo's once or twice. God, sends shivers down my spine just thinking about it! Urrggghh! Don't be paranoid.........'They' don't like it!!!!!!!
