Car Pushing
« on: January 24, 2012, 08:40:21 PM »
never seen this happen before, a rover 25 being pushed, bumper to bumper by a berlingo.

they came out of a side street, along the main road a bit and turned right into a garage

 it was near the prison if thats relevant and the alarm on the rover was sounding continuously

very strange ???

And this comes from someone who leaves the horn beeping merrily away on his X1-9 to keep the neighbours amused...... :whistle:

Had someone push me like that before, it came as a bit of a shock, my Uno broke down in morning traffic, it just wouldn’t turn over, they guy behind kept beeping me, I looked at him, he was gesturing do you want a push to which I replied yup, I was just about to get out of the car to push it when I gently bumped the car and pushed me down the road, bit of a shock, but got the car running :D In Sicily bumpers are for bumping 

why would you need a car to push 'rover" down the road, if the dog doesn't want to go out for a walk, then don't take it  ;D

They should do a special edition Abarth for the discerning Rover costumer. (The Fiat Abarth Tributo Rover 595) The dash could be a very nice faux walnut and the Sabelts a two tone beige velour and pooh brown vinyl. Oh and will only have two gears as Rover drivers never exceed 25mph.

I blame my first massive accident on a Rover driver. I was stuck behind him for miles. He's was moving so slowly, I'm sure I could smell him decomposing.

Anyway, I got the chance to overtake (just) and went round the next corner on my roof.  :(

Rovers soock.  OMG, mind that profanity filter.  A long time ago in London, I had a Rover neighbour and he cheesed me off no end parking his frigging piece of trash right in front of my house.  I hate Rovers to this day, albeit if they put their minds to it, they can be fast.  But Scorpi is faster. ;D
