have you ever used your landrover in anger or road rage

you should try driving in sweden theres not enough cars to get road rage with I can understand in the uk with all the muppets on the roads there I bet if everyone had to do some sort of refresher test most would fail me included but thats a different story  :grin:

unfortunatly and i am dissapointed in my self for it, i have recently used my rangie in anger, i had a running problem and i sat in a cue maybe 5 cars back at a set of traffic lights and the rangie conked out, i stuck my hazards on as i do every time, and the merc behind me (2" from my bumper) and just blasted his horn for 5 mins while i was cranking the rangie (its auto so couldnt try bump / crank start), it wasnt going, so i was about to get out to try pushing it out the way (yes 2 odd ton of range rover on my own but done it before), and the merc driver got out, called me all the names under the sun for holding him up, i stayed calm and said what can  do it wont start, go back to your car and be patient until i can get her started or i will park on your bonnet if you ive me any more abuse, he then kicked the door of the rangie and started to walk back to his car, that p***ed me off as im the only person allowed to kick it, at this i tried starting her again, wasnt going to move her out the way (because it was annoying him) then it fired and i stuck it in reverse and parked the rear diff on his bonnet, and then drove off,

these accidents do happen!

  i drive up to my maximum hours most weeks so see it all and it does get really really frustrating so i totally sympathise..

 :clap: :clap: Its a shame your inhibitor switch is faulty, and that you didnt realise that she was in reverse and that when it caught you had to rev it to keep it going.... the bloke was probably more  :oops: that he'd parked 2'' from your bumper and the same with the rest of them combined with the fact that his business was more important than yours... ;)
While we're on the subject are there any BMW Volvo or Merc drivers around because i find these drivers particually ignorant and snobby. I dont think that the majority should be tared with the same brush?!

  i find the men who drive the early vectra models the most aggresive and most likely to cut me up or try and run me off the road..maybe thats just local to norfolk though!
