Which car is most likely to be driven aggresively?

Audi and BMW are the usual suspects of course, but even within those brands there are specific models I've noticed.

Audi - A5 coupe (not the 5 door one), S3, Q7

surprisingly not that many TTs, though is that because the girsl prefer them and the guys prefer the A5?

BMW - 535d - no one ever pootles in one of those!, 120d

surprisingly I never see that many M3's be driven like an arse... I expect I would if I had one!

Seat Exeos - Everyone that has one seems to have an attitude problem!

VW - R32 drivers

I am also surprised at how few Porsches I see being driven fast. Occasionally I see a 911 where someone is on a mission, but most seem to cruise.

I've seen a few older M3's being driven at silly speeds, mostly because I was behind them, but I always stop once I hit 100 but they just carry on lol

Vauxhall Corsa with young girl/ women behind the wheel. They go everywhere at 10/10ths! The only worry is one of their 10ths is worth a 10th of a normal mans 10th.

Mercedes is most notable for me. They seem to drive the same, regardless of conditions. So in nice weather they aren't a problem, as I'm peddling fairly well myself. In poor conditions they are a nuisance.
Oh and insignias, met a few nobs in those too.

They're also often texting and checking their hair while hogging the fast lane.

Any car that is driven by a muppet in a baseball cap.

Any car with a bean can exhaust.

Cocks in SUV's (Range Rover sport, audi Q's etc)

Me at times - I do have shit days or just going faster than I should be.

However predominantly it's either low life of high life that drive aggressively.

Both have total disregard for the average person and only think of themselves.

Neither have carpets in their living room.

Nick, may I ask what you do(or did) for a living?

Just curious as to where your hatred of sales people comes from? Lots of people who drive around in fleet cars are not in sales you know!

Were you ripped off badly by some unscrupulous type or something?

Good point.
Well put.

Slight correction.

Audi means 'cock' in any language!

I work in IT and the amount of Sales people you meet that get into an Audi is alarming.

My its like when you qualify from sales school you have to sell your mother and buy an A3. as you get better and progress through sales ranks you get an A4, A5 then finish with a Q7 when your a director of sales.

and its not sales.

Company Chairmen always drive Jags

Part of the sales exams actually selling your parents and making a profit on their home.

The only people that actually like sales people are:

Other sales people.
The firms that make business cards.
Premier Inn.
Burger King, Toby Carvery, Subway etc
M&S / BHS.

Oh and of course Audi.

tell you who I find the most aggressive. Anyone driving a skoda Octavia vRS. They seem to believe that they need to prove something?

off duty traffic police officers in their personal cars are pretty aggressive drivers.

worst ever drivers. TAXI DRIVERS!! they should fit cameras in their cars and then every month some authority should review the footage. then hand out 10 day bans.

tell you who the best drivers on the roads are.. anyone who is driving an old classic. like me obviously.

Usually BMWs or Audis with the badges removed.

And (waits for the flaming) any BMW ?18d or ?20d or Audi A3/A4 small diesel engines. Always seem to have something to prove. Or that's what it seems like round here. Smaller petrols less so.

You think debadged cars are more likely to be driven aggressively? Is that not reflective of the fact that most of them are just the 4 cylinder engined cars you mention already?
