Going to Whangarei couple of months back. Got behind a Jowett Javelin, top speed on flat, 70 ks. Do we class the driver as an idiot or an enthusiast.! Javelins were crap even when brand new!

thats generally my stereotype too, particularly ones over about 45 years old, who seem to be in no hurry to get anywhere any time

Lets work this out in reverse.I'm 21, male, no children.I have a modified car, with a normal muffler, and some big wheels.
I will accelerate unnecessarly and use passing lanes as my own drag strip, whenever possible. And will flash my lights and honk my horn at anyone who gets in my way.I will overtake like a nascar (without the crash, cause I'm way too good to crash) and I will never back down to a race from the lights.(unless your car is looks faster. I'll look down my nose at you and call you a wanker)
I will race past your house late at night and then race back incase you weren't woken up the first time, then me and a couple of mates will have a small dance party down the road, with bass so deep it'll shake your false teeth.
What car do I drive!

Hopefully you don't include convertible drivers (of course its only your opinion).
Getting close.Picking the stereotypical car to match driver isn't so easy!

you are so right, it must be the poor visibility because they don't notice anyone else on the road. bloody things are worse than sandflies.

While the new Accords are nice, and it would be good reliable motoring, they don't "do" it for me compared to my Dore with 20s. Yes, call it a mid life crisis if you want, but I am allowed to have some fun after all these years working hard.

IMO horse truck drivers (normally women in shit old Hinos') are the worst, followed closely by people movers and mitsi galants. Subarus are pretty high on the list too.

HONDA drivers are the worst. Followed by sales reps in Ford Mondeo Waggons and then, any woman in a VW Polo/Golf. Also Pacific Islanders in there large slow diesel vans, and of course ANY INDIAN DRIVER who usually drive Corollas or Sunnys!

Women in old crappy Horse trucks who trundle along the open highway at 60km/h (generally the women driving look like the animal in the back). Cow Cockies in their old Nissan flat deck utes complete with towelling hat who pull out in front of you and travel down the highway at a slow speed holding up a huge line of traffic and then pull into a driveway a kilometre up the road. Brown skinned folk in their people movers (whanau wagons) who give you crap if you pass them ( i think they do it just for a reaction). Now i own one of those crappy old 2.4 Surfs, goes alright for what it is, Its no rocket ship but it does what i want it to do and i know its limitations and yes i'm courteous and pull over to let any traffic pass. last Wednesday night i took it from New Plymouth to Whakatane, GPS told me 5hrs and 5 minutes for the trip, Did it in 3hrs 45, not too bad for an old surf but then again i have seen some horrid surf/hilux drivers, maybe it is just too much of a handfull for them!

Fat old hunters that pull straight out from a bush track onto an open road, vehicle lighting covered in mud so you don't know WTF they're doing, and do 40kph because the pig is just sitting on the tray! Also young eminem wannabe sh1theads who ride so low you can't even see them, they get my vote

Anyone not driving a Multipla. When will they learn they are not worthy and that they are supposed to yield to the the might of Italy.
Has your car been exhibited in the museum of modern art! No!. therefore it should be kept out of sight with the rest of the garbage.
Nuff Said!
