Scenario car park city center, 11am today.
I am reversing out of the parking bay checking all round as I do so, my wife checking her side as she is wont to do, all clear so I pull out steadily. Nearly out of bay when I hear what sounds like a jet engine throttling up. Spot a new Subaru Impreza reversing straight out at my rear end. Sound horn slam on brake and thankfully so does he. Now normally the other person would wave apologetically , pull back in and all would go on there merry way.
Then the good bit starts, he jumps out of his car and slams his hand on my boot heading round my car, skinny guy 22 or 23. Damn!
Glasses off, seat belt off get out of car before he gets to the drivers door.
Suffice to say verbal abuse streamed from his mouth for a couple of minutes, i just let him get on with it.
Then calmly told him I was practically out of the bay before he had even started his engine. He continued to bluster for a few more minutes but my calm demeanour seemed to unsettle him. When I pointed out that his car rear was only a few feet out of his bay and mine was sitting outside of my bay . He backed away muttering all the time, so I got back in my car and through my open window my wife and I heard his parting shot.
F****** RICH T**T
I burst out laughing as we drove away my wife looking at me as if I had lost it.
I explained to her the wheels on his Subaru probaly cost more than our Merc.
He had the full body kit on the car extended wheel arches, tyres that would have fitted Schumachers F1 car. An exhaust with an opening wider than our washing machine. Oh and that lovely blue with gold stars paint job EWWW!
