Close calls in the 1er's

Hey Raj..
That was a close one today..
Saw you nearly lose the nose of your new baby today...
At least your horn scared the shitter out of that idiot..

And I was your witness...what a small world for you pass by at that moment as I just pulled up at the curb in my 1er..:w00t:

Just as Raj went to pass by and I was about to get his attention a dick head sunday driver pulls straight out in front of Raj nearly wiping him out..
Raj gave him a long toot of the horn and an Aussie salute..hehehe

It was close..

Where are you Raj...give us your side of the story..hehehe

hey guys, that was a close one. Was on the main street heading home and this dope pulls straight in front of me. I slam the brakes and my baby stopped just in time (thank god for the amazing brakes)!. Funny thing is that the driver was laughing as he drove off.......

zuzu i think i might invest in a el-cheapo corolla for the shopping expeditions from now on

Ah, the joys of city driving.....

Then again, over here I'd be reluctant to go out driving at night.... too much wildlife on the road at night. Wouldn't want to collect any deer which tend to go walkabout at night around here

Funny you should say that. I took my '91 Corolla to the shops for the weekly hunt-and-gather today. Park anywhere.

Unfortunately it (GTi) has better throttle response than the 1!
