10 Things You Must Never Do As A Respected Car Guy

1. The Fart Cannon

If you can count your cylinders on one hand, chances are, your ride will sound like a wheezy lawnmower with one of these attached. Definitely avoid this.

2. Clear/Lexus-style taillights

It’s hard to understand why these lamps were so popular in the early 2000s. Too much Fast and Furious, perhaps?

3. Cut springs

Ruining your shocks and ride quality has never been easier.

4. Cluttered dashboard

Your standard dashboard is fine just the way it is. So why you insist on installing gauges to gauge how your gauges are gauging is beyond us!

5. Outrageous paint job

Just because an Audi R8 looks great in lime green, does not mean the same applies to your Corsa.

6. Fake badges

Few things in life are more pointless than sticking an M badge on the back of a 318i.

7. Revving at the lights

If you don’t want your embarrassed passenger to sink into their seat, avoid revving at the lights at all costs.

8. Shouting at other road users

If you shout stupid things at other road users and pedestrians, then you, Sir, are an idiot.

9. Massive sound system

You’ve doubled the value of your car by changing the stereo and now you want everyone else to know? Great.

10. You detach the wheel while driving

This is, by far, the most pointless and worst driving violation you can make. Never let it get this damn far.
