Cars

What's the most 'rude boy' car you've owned or driven?

I was chatting about it elsewhere when an overpriced Cosworth came up for sale. I said Cosworths, Imprezas, Lancers, Novas, Renault 5s were all rude cars when I was a kid. My Mk2 MR2 cost less then 3k. Sold it to a kid in Derby and within a month it was in the news he'd wrapped it round.a lamppost.

Ive probably told this story before but I totaled my dads 90's lexus trying to drift behind the movie theatre in highschool

 

[DLaurent]

All my mates moved to London and none of them know how to drive either.

I didnt get in any trouble with the law because I had a bb gun in the back seat and the dumb ass yokel cops thought I must have just been driving around on hardy boy adventures

 

[linebaugh]

the tow truck driver said I was lucky I didnt die because when one runs into one of those gigantic light poles they often fall back on top of the car and crush you. But I was going so fast I actually knocked it foward. They said I was a 'bad ass'

That's the same car I sold to a kid in Derby, About a month after I sold it he crashed it. They're death traps being mid engined rear wheel drive if you aren't careful. I had it for about a year before I sold it. Impractical for where I live now out in the country down country lanes but ok for city driving.

'Its a death trap. I gave it to a child'

kid's dead now. he crashed it.

 

[DLaurent]

No weight at the front, so if you put your foot down, the front wheels lift off the road.

the headline says the driver walked away but if you read the body dlaurent has the blood of his ma, baby sister, and beloved family dog scooter on his hands
