What compels car drivers to pull away as slow as possible and then take forever to achieve 30mph..? :nusenuse:

I used to think it was just the oldies, but I've recently noticed all ages of driver do this....

Two points here;

- I don't believe it was -5 as the hosepipe would have been frozen
- at least it was frozen water on the road rather than the frozen horse poo that Derek is responsible for
Why would the water in the hose be frozen when it's coming from the house?
My horses don't go on the road so how am I responsible?

It is simply the result of there being far too many diesels on the road.

Scrap the lot as far as I am concerned.

Ahhhh.. well that is almost certainly thanks to the Aviva App.
It is something I reckon should be heaved in to touch asap..
Aviva drivers might get cheaper insurance but I am willing to bet they SEE a lot of accidents... as they are causing them

One of my early car lusts was a Vauxhall Magnum.....

Pretty nice ice cream as well, the Magnum.

The Aviva HC was quite tasty in its day...

I had an viva, good car for pottering around but after a trip to Plymouth from the midlands decided it needed more power :D

Enter stage left a scrap 1800 Firenza & a weekends work which made it fun on the crap original viva drum brakes & suspension, especially as the original viva diff was still in there :risas3: Screech, change, screech, change, peep, change Ooooh shite I need to stop :risas3:
