Default The Scooby has turned my missus into a nutter.

Since having the WRX she regularly comes home from work with stories of "teaching some chav/barry in a <insert hot hatch name> a lesson at the lights"..

I didn't really think much of it until we were out the other night and some lad in a new Clio 12301238312321 or what ever it is Cup thing was edging forward next to her at the lights, as they turned green I hear the Clio's front wheels searching for grip and I look over my right shoulder and the other half is like a woman possessed, <bang> a perfect start and before I knew what was going on Mr Clio was looking rather stupid.

Do you think I should confiscate it for bad behaviour?

Oh she wants to... She wants to take it on the track at Trax, but I've told her if she breaks it, its her problem.. so she'll probably just do a sprint and maybe a parade lap lol

Sounds a little ironic seeing as shes driving a WRX

Get her a proper womans car - Citirover or a Daewoo Matiz - enough room for the shopping, and easy to park - what more does she need?..

It tends to do that to them, my missus drives mine all the time. Got a phone call last year while she was out in it, saying there was another scooby up her *** and could she race it. I told her to be careful (on the provate road), and to let me know how she gets on. She phoned back a while later, said she had came of a roundabout and left him for dust, then waited for him at the next roundabout. He put his window down and told her it was a turn on a woman driving a car like that, she laughed and told him it was a pity he couldnt keep up and drove off!

We've talked about building a track car, havent got the time though and the only local Track is Castle Coombe which pretty much limits you to little go-carts.

That reminds me, a few weeks ago we were driving on a quiet A-road, she was in fifth so I said have a little feel of the rolling acceleration as you come on boost in fifth... Lets just say I had to tell her to back off as she was running out of numbers on the speedo.

Once behind the wheel, I have to say my Mrs does take on the expression of determination akin to a small child taking a poop - firm lip slightly reddened.

I taught her to drive in a GTIR so she started off with pretty quick cars - Sadly at the expense of the clutch (and my wallet)

Am I a nutter too????

There is nothing more satisfying than leaving a chav at the lights when you wait for him at the next junction and he realises it was a BLONDE female that just kicked his ****

I recall an incident where a mk 4 Golf Gti (oh dear) piloted by Burberry inc pulled up next to me in the right hand turn lane only, edging 4ward and reving like a loon. I just gave them the most condescending "as if" look I could muster and let them burn off in a cloud of wheelspin and not much forward motion!!

Unfortunately for them, as they'd been such c**ks, I neglected to tell them about the very well marked police patrol car 2 cars behind me!

There was this blue flashing light!!

They were still there getting a dressing down on the return leg of my journey!

Fortunately not. She has her own little 172 for that. £300 and 4 points

Could you take a close up pic of the wheels with you next to them pointing out the colour change whilst wearing some inappropriate clothing











oh and a loaf of bread
