This has genuinely shocked me! The above link needs to be viewed prior to reading the rest of what I'm about to discuss.
The above article, is borderline inciting criminal damage. How can someone openly write in the press that they agree with the fact someone keyed someone else's car, for no reason at all?! Well. Sorry. That's dreadful!
"I hate to generalise but allow me to generalise. You can't spend more
than a house worth on a car and claim the moral high ground." REALLY?! Whether the owner of the Aston Martin V8 Vantage was born into money or bought the car himself, that is irrelevant. It was still his car! His property! Some people are fortunate to have money to spend on a nice car. I think he has every right to take the moral high ground! The owners car was just parked, in a car park, not in harms way...
Bringing in how SOME arrogant supercar/luxury car owners drive is just distasteful generalisation based on the actions of a minority. Funnily enough, even how they drive still doesn't warrant damaging someone else property!
This woman clearly doesn't go out in these "swanky cars" as she is totally clueless that there are owners who drive responsibly. The funny thing is, I'm not a clueless individual just defending the drivers. I'm fortunate in getting to go out in these cars and seeing that people do obey the laws of the road.
She also hasn't heard of organised car events which actually allow you to go over the National Speed Limit on a thing called a "closed track" - this is why we have many circuits around the country and events such as V Max to experience the high speeds in a safe controlled environment.
These types of articles really make me laugh in just going off of stereotypes and tarnishing everyone with the same brush.
"Surely a chap confident in his man credentials would be happy in a
Nissan Leaf, ostentatiously plugging it in to charge at a city centre
rapid charging point, winking at the ladies going by as he shows how
much he cares about the future of the planet." Okay and this is just sexist! Do women not own these fancy cars?!
This also made me chuckle! "The level of fancy of the car is in direct proportion to the level of
morality of the driver. You don't get boy racers in a Fiat 500." The last bit! Oh my life! I guarantee you, I've seen more boy racers in Fiat 500's than I've ever seen boy racers in supercars.
Anyway, I'm going to end this here as this is just hysterical!
