Yes it’s really me…..nah not really…
Any who , this is my first post so no comments ’bout the spellin ,grammer etc.!!!
As the heading suggests i’m griping about new cars..all makes and sizes driven by all sorts of people, although this does’nt apply ta ALL drivers but the ever increasing ones that got sold a dud.Let me explain… You see back in my day cars were simpler ,if you wanted to ,say, turn left….. you check your mirror stick on the ‘oul indicator mirror again and around you go…..but with these modern “dud’s” i see ,the’yre bloody indicators dont seem to work ..i’d be right back to the dealer if it was my car…same thing with some right indicators too.!! I notice on some of the modern cars that the mirrors need to be folded “in” to work, why ? i just cant understand.
But it gets worst , how many times have you seen a car or SUV with such bad brakes that the driver cant bring the vehicle to a stop before the white line at crossings or any traffic light, suffice to say its lucky these people always seem to have their phone handy, probably calling the dealer they bought the car from i’d imagine…..or in the morning rush hour they might have a newspaper on the steering wheel, just in case it has a faulty airbag..good thinking there..
Is it any wonder you see soo many abandoned cars which might be mistaken for bad parking by some people..
Nope ,until the manufacturers sort out these problems i’m sticking with my oul banger…none of that modern rubbish for me ..life’s too short and valuable..

And I thought you had a doctorate in engineering
No..but i did have a doctor with an earring…!!!
It's a travesty! Thank God Opel have developed the new Astra GTC with the extending windscreen, so those hard to see regulation red lights above may at last be seen.
What about the forward thinking Toyota Yaris which has a compact mirror on the drivers sun visor, so you can see the vehicles behind you from an alternate view whilst applying your lippy in traffic.
Come on car manufacturers! Why not bring in more fantastic features such as rear parachutes like you see on drag racers. This may resolve the 'sorry guard, I was going to fast to stop at the red light' scenario. Just flip a switch and 'whooooosh!', instand speed reduction.
Or hows about magnetic panels to lock young children to the correct safe seated position, instead of actively having to go through the trauma of making sure they have their seatbelts on. Hassle, hassle hassle.
I mean……COME ON! A little help here please.
