I had an Alfa once, a 156 Veloce, it was fucking erchie. Probably the best car I ever had, though a MKII escort 1.6 Ghia at 18 was pretty close, but now they've gone and made a fuckign 4x4! 

 

I'm fucking sick of these useless rolly poly handling vision blocking fashion statements all over the roads. And for Alfa of all people to join the trend is pathetic, what next a 4x4 Lambo or ferrari?  :cardred: :cardyellow:

I saw an advert for an Alfa 4x4 yesterday for the first time and I must say I was pretty shocked.

 

My memory of Alfa Romeo was that they were buckets of shit in terms of reliability, like Ford always was and always will be, although Vauxhall has won the worst brand ever built award from the now defunct Rover when we talk about being able to do what it says on the tin.

 

Porsche’s Cayenne is an abomination. 4 x 4’s are good for 2 or 3 days a year. Otherwise they’re a fashion statement. For cunts who think they’re better than the rest of us.

How else are folk supposed to travel along the main road to the industrial estate carrying a single 80kg person, other than in a 1,750kg vehicle?

Got a bitty worried reading that until I checked and found my car weighs a mere 1,536kg. And whilst it is all wheel drive it's not a jeep style 4x4 that sits high off the ground like yer.. Jeeps and Range Rover Chelsea Tractor thingies. And since I weigh a wee bit more than 80kg I can safely rule myself out of the class of cunts we're criticising here which is obviously a big relief. 

 

4x4 with 3.5/4/5 litre engines should be selt to folk who live in rural locations that might genuinely be adversely affected by severe weather. They are status symbols but the only folk who're impressed by them are the other cunts that drive them.

Aye, I have a landy like, but I only use it at weekends as I'm not totally ignorant.

I have a Jeep, a small een, which is ideal for me as I like sitting higher up these days (gettin' aul) and it's also handy when we get 6" of snow at least one each year.

I also like the remote start heated seats and heated steering wheel TBF

Fuck sake. Wankers. Each and every one of us. 

Yes.

Well.

Thanks for that Tyrant!
