When I occasionaly drive SWMBO's Fiat 500, I get bullied into moving out of the way from almost everyone.

Thought I'd share an update, I have driven the range all the time during the holidays and must admit I have not had any issues people have been very pleasant have really enjoyed using it. So I thought I would take it to work today and low and behold everyone is all out of Christmas cheer!! So I thought f%#k it I drive it like I stole it, wow those mercedes drivers that flash you when your doing 70 while overtaking a lorry don't like it when the the only words they can see in the rear window are RANGE ROVER, when I asked him in the garage why he thought I should move for him he said " because you should be doing 80 if you want to be in the fast lane" what a prick!! Acts the big man in his car and then threatens to call police when I get out of car to discuss his ignorance. Best part is I completely fell in love with the car I didn't realise the change when you drive it sport mode it's a different animal!!!! |

Count yourselves lucking you are not in a Porsche 4x4...everyone hates me, I've never known anything like it! I can guarantee that at least once a week I will encounter road rage and each time I have right of way and I am a courteous driver.

As a lead footer, I gotta say I love how people just magically get out of the way from the left lane, and I'm talking like while they're still a dozen or so car lengths ahead of me. People never moved for me in my benz... or jeep for that matter. Of course, I don't think I ever got that Jeep fast enough to make it over to the left lane. 2007 Range Rover Supercharged

And BMW, Audi, Volvo ect ect I could go on BUT its not the cars fault, all cars get a name for them selves, not just RR's, even off roaders the legel ones get slated, Its a sad country we live in. If it dont work.......burn it!

There are plenty of out there, but they don't just drive Audis, bmws and Rangeys. Have more problems with antiques driving Toyota Auris, Prius and other small shopping trolleys. I drive a pickup as daily driver and never get driven at. Take the FF out and it's all change. Driven at by a VW transporter on wrong side of road, given the one fingered salute after thanking an on coming driver for letting me through then nearly got Kia Sportage bonnet souvenir in McD's who decided to reverse out of parking space. Think we'll park it up again TDV8 Vogue SE 2009.

I've never had any problems when out driving the FF, however last week I had a very "nice" lady who it turns out owns a Prius give me a long lecture in a car park about I was destroying the environment with my car and i should be ashamed of myself. She got very angry when i told her i only do about 3000 miles a year and that her car was probably more damaging to the environment being built than mine. |

The FF no problems with other drivers in fact people usually give way but in the Micra I run to work I now drive with the headlights on day and night becasue i am thet F****d off with people pulling out on me. They will even make eye contact let you get within 10 yards then still do it Mine was a blue one! |

I've always driven defensively no matter what the car I've owned. In my previous Disco idiots in 4 wheel drive Nissan Jukes and the like used to screw their engines just to get in front of me as if to say "I'm a better 4x4 because I'm quicker"

I had some Wally tap on my window once in a car park to tell me if I knew or cared about my carbon footprint my RR was leaving, I said am I asking you to pay for it and are you a meat eater as animals create more than any vehicle, in the end I said go and tell sting and bono to stop flying first you muppet then waved bye to him _____________________________________________________
