13 Things You Should Never Say To Car Lovers

Oh it's a petrol, I thought it was diesel. Haha, silly me!

My car redlines at 8250rpm and it sounds amazing. Seriously, what the hell is wrong with you?

What colour is it? (after being told that you've just bought an E30)

Of all the things you could have asked - including engine size, body style, if it’s had an M50 swap etc - you enquire about the colour…?

What football team do you support?

It’s true that a lot of car lovers aren’t into football. Don’t judge us…we can’t help being more awesome than you.

I just bought a new car...

You bought a new car? I feel sorry for you, bro. Did you know that with your twenty-something grand you could have bought an E60 M5 for fast fun, a Honda S2000 for weekend fun and a top-spec Mercedes C-class for longer journeys? Depreciation: a car lover’s best friend.

...it's called a Prius. You know it?

Yes of course we know what the Prius is. It’s the most hated car on the internet. Comfortable, sure, but hated!

Why don't you ever fill the tank?

Answer: weight reduction, bro.

It's OK if I eat in your car?

Hahaha, you’re kidding, right?!

I know Top Gear's on, but so is 'Don't tell the bride'

I love you, darling, but nothing…NOTHING…gets in the way of Top Gear time!

Stop looking at Car Throttle!

Anyone who says this to you should be deleted from your life with immediate effect.

Nice MX-5, bro! (After seeing an S2k)

They’re both RWD convertibles and they both go braaaaaap, but the S2k is worlds apart from the MX-5. Why? VTEC, bro. That’s why.

Stop looking at your car!

If you don’t look back at your car multiple times when you park up, then you’ve bought the wrong car. Equally, if your Facebook wall isn’t filled with pics of your ride, then you’re doing it wrong.

When will you finish your project car?

Answer: the joke’s on you because as every car lover knows, no project is ever finished.

It's me or the car!

Seriously, don’t even go there. You will always lose this battle.
