Well they think we're all RLJ-ing, bearded, hippy, unionists so lets throw some shit back at them.
In my experience Range Rover drivers are the worst on the road, they don't seem to know the size of their vehicle and generally the drivers are dicks. Like all 4x4 owners they always pull/push out more than other motorists uising their sheer bulk to intimidate us into yielding, big is best. No you fucker, the sign says 'give way' not 'make way'.
Following a close second are the Mercedes drivers, who like the many GPs that drive them, have a false sense of entitlement and drive in a world of their own. Don't you know I'm a doctor? Having a Benz is the vehicular equivalent of this. It means they simply don't need to look coming out of junctions as you are supposed to have noticed it was a Benz pulling out, recognise its owners importance and know your place, peasant.
3rd worst are the BMW drivers, usually the fastest on the road, the ultimate driving machine attracts the 'real' drivers. If only this were true. The older ones are the ones to watch out for, usually the ones that end in 5i. Telling a 5i driver they can't drive is the most offensive statement possible, and in their eyes, punishable by death.
And finally any car with a bodykit. It may have started life as mums little run around but that citroen saxo with the cherry bomb exhaust and 18 inch rims is also a menace. Their stereo is usually more powerful than the engine so at least you can hear them coming, but inside is a seriously sexually frustrated virgin. He (yes its always a he) is now on the drivers ladder, and though he aspires to own a 5i one day, for now he thinks he can gloat in at least having more chance of getting laid than any guy with a bike.
