People who buy Big rim's, then can't afford the tyres to go on them! You see it all the time with fully sick 20" Rims on commodores!

10" wide rim, with a 245 tyre glued on....

Full-sik VL Turbo's.... They are just gay! LOL

Totally agree with the earlier comments about "Big exhausts on V6 Commo's" hahahaha, there is nothing worse!

I also hate cars that are absolutely plastered with stupid amounts of stickers. Unless it's a race-car with sponsor stickers of course!

I can't stand "plastic-chrome" looking rims - or hubcaps made to look like fully sick rims.

Cars with filthy windows or just mega dirty cars - some people are so lazy!

Great Thread topic... im just including anything I hate !

I hate:

drivers sitting in the right lane at or under the speed limit.

Truck drivers actually driving in the right lane... should be outlawed.

Trucks.

Give way signs on buses.

bus lanes.

bicycle lanes.

bicycle riders.

bicycles.

Haircuts on young guys these days... like a gay convention !

tight jeans on aforementioned gay activists.

hats worn sideways.

fat chicks. particularly in tight clothing.

full arm ban tattoos.

graffiti artists... particularly the little c*&ts that keep spraying my fence !

government taxes on beer and cigarettes.

jetstar airlines lack of tv's in their planes.

lining up.

crowds.

stupid people.

other peoples kids, expecially noisy ones.

work.


i could go on forever !!

whinge thread is <<<<<< that way skapinad (offtopic)

I cant stand a 10 k paintjob and 10k worth of wheels on a piece of shit (insert base model anything) with a standard engine, suspension (minus the "dumped" springs)

Commodores sitting on their chassis rails, or alternatively bouncing off the bump stops when they are weaving in and out of traffic.

Hecktick chrome rims.... polished alloy would be acceptable, chrome 10 tonne, 20" spinners on the other hand.....

people who paint their cars orang.... ohh wait :tease:

ohh one more thing,

Clear/altezza tail lights...

Things that people do to their car that you hate


Locking it in the garage (sometimes in a humidity controlled cocoon!!) and never taking it out. Posted Image

And spending lots and lots trying to make their car look EXACTLY like the day it came out of the factory, right down to the last nut, bolt washer, paint daub, date code, split pin. Funny that they always forget to replicate the crap factory paint and hit and miss build quality Posted Image

Each to their own I know, but I just don't get that stuff.................

people who paint their cars orang.... ohh wait Posted Image

ROTFLMAO Posted Image

With the mines so close to town now, if i was to keep the dust off the car (black Prado) then i would have to wash it everyday (f*ck that).

I agree with whats already been put up, the frangipani stickers give me the screamin shits (go figure, the daughter wants them on her Barina) and the doofdoof music you can hear two blocks away before you see the bloody car.

Bumper stickers on paint work (who cares what radio station you listen to anyway?)

Automatic 4 cyls with big exhausts

Jet Pilot stickers on slow ass Hilux's

Poorly maintained cars (lights not working, exhaust hangers missing, mismatched tyres, etc)

Air fresheners that smell worse than the car did to begin with

Wood grain steering wheels

White interiors (especially dash tops, reflection on the windscreen is unbearable)

Massive wheels over standard little brakes

Chrome windsreen wipers on cars with no other chrome

POS Lancers done up to look like Evo's (especially the 2 door ones)

Kia's

fantastic topic! enjoyin havin a good laugh at peoples pet hates!

i hate...

old people who shouldnt be allowed to drive but still do,
ridiculous body kits on ridiculous cars... especially when they have stock rims!
blow off valves so loud that it sounds like the engine has just blown AND
turbos tuned extremly low so there is a massive "Pssshhhhh" when they change gear at like 1700-2000rpm.
all asian drivers (sorry to be racist but seriously its like they found their licence in a cerial box!!!)
SPINNER RIMS
front wheel drive cars (unless its a 4x4 with that drive control thing)
milo tin exhausts
the ever increasing price of torana's and torana parts (especially LH sports mirrors!)[although it could be a good point when you come to sell your torana but why would you?!]
petrol prices..
bumper stickers.. i dont care what you brake for!
dangly things that hang off of the rear vision mirror
rims on cars that clearly shouldnt have rims on it
stripes that dont belong on cars
big mural stickers along the side of cars mainly asian cars
stupid personal number plates that make no sence or have no meaning or are just plain stupid


thats about all i hate for the time being..

Josh.

Chev badges on v6 commodores
Completely standard little jap cars with 20" rims and 4" exhaust (they are fun to blow off at the lights though :P )

Taking the tory off the road for a rebuild and it sitting in the shed for coming on 18+ months...

I don't get the whole lock up and leave thing that people do.

Sure, it will increase the value over time, but if you have such an awesome car you should have it out on the road for everyone to enjoy, especially yourself.

Maybe I'm just jealous cause I've never had the luxury of a car worth leaving in a shed somewhere Posted Image

No offence to anyone, but cars are for driving, unless they're in a museum.

stickers shit me.. the bumper stickers that people must literally slap on. Theyre put on not even square!!
i also hate how people put those stupid "0 to Bitch in 2.3 seconds" (or any of those types) stickers on their car.
Gangsta lean is gay!
People who get massive chrome rims just because theyre massive and chrome...try getting rims that fit and suit the car dickhead!
People that have a sound system with monster subs that vibrates the panels on their cars and nearly makes me shit my pants...
People that advertise car modification joints but have never actually had any mods done except a set of rims they got from the wreckers...(tempe tyres stickers on every 2nd car a few years back).
and people who put tachos n gauges all over their dash and a pillar and its a stock lancer!
i better stop im getting the shits!
