I'm just curious. When you've made some new friends and told them "I have a Saxo" do they ever completely take the p*ss (joking or not joking) saying how the car is complete tosh and what not. last night one of my mates went, "shame about the make" (can't remember rest of convo)

But I know that it's been slagged off alot since I began Uni and made some new friends.

Just gets on my nerves, anyone else fed up with their lovely sax being made fun of? :n: Blooming Bullies :P

Yup ive owned a nova and a saxo, whats classed as a clit car. Every c*nt has one most ppl say etc

But tbh ANY car you own is a popular car last time i checked all cars get mass produced. well apart from hand built efforts and the like.

dont think its anything to do with the car itself as there not sluggish. its just down to being too popular when they came out etc

Someone I knew at college saw me get into my car and said "oh so you drive one of them" and kept he kept saying it was just like driving a tin can and making jokes about it but didn't actually bother me that much.I think he was jealous cos he was only driving an old Corsa lol:P I love my tin can

Yip, one of the guys at college came out last night and went on about how $hit they apparantly are. I asked what he had and he pointed to a W reg polo that was riding higher than a tractor with half its front bumper missing.

"Erm, lets sit in your car... blooming clean Sean mate"

Think saxos are always going to get stick because mates have seen a "chaved up" boy racer one in the past! I couldn't care less though, i love my saxo and i think most of the time people are just jealous!

One of my mates made fun of my saxo..... stopped laughing when I "kind of" ran over his "dog."

Now, replace the word "kind of" with the word repeatedly, and the word "dog" with the word mum....... oops

Dont care what people say about em tbh, love my saxo.

My little brothers mate slagged it off "dont they just fall apart as you drive"

So i had a little joke back with "Thats french cars for ya, fall apart but there cheap to fix"

and he replied something like " id never buy a car if i knew it would just fall apart, even if it is cheap to fix"

He drives a 206, aparently he thought that was a british make since he prenounces it 'persho'

Yeah you find this quite a lot on here mate. Its a serious case of double standards that a small percentage of members suffer from. Its ok when they race themselves but when someone else comes on and admits it they come down on them like a ton of shite. They usually come down on girls or new members harder, if your popular they laugh it off and say fair play.

6th November 2007, 21:17
everyone takes the piss out of mine, even saxo owners which blows.


end of the day i dont give a bollock. i like my car but i dont see it as a direct reflection of me in way, shape or form, so people who perceive the car as chavvy are right, but perceive me as chavvy are wrong.

Saxo's will always get stick, but so do a lot of other cars.

I laugh at any of my mates that try to comment on my car, they've had a lot worse & most of them will eventually admit they like my car in one way or another.

As long as you're happy with your car who gives a flying fook what someone else (who doesn't own or drive it) thinks?

6th November 2007, 21:39
People are very judgemental on this sort of issue...
When I first got my Saxo and told a mate it was a 1.6, he had a fat grin on his face and said, "VTR, yeah??" I told him no, as I had got a VTS. He then said, "Oh, VTS' are alright. Was about to call you a fcking chav!" Tbh I felt insulted anyhow, since they're very similar. VTR's rock too, almost got one! People should stop being so judgemental. But my sister's mates all reckon my car is "well fit", which is nice :)
Saxos ftw, whatever model

Dboyvts
6th November 2007, 21:49
Yeh most people do pass coment on the saxo saying its a shit wee french car. That is till the see the spec lol Then its " 240bhp in a saxo fu*k me"

Most of my mates have evo,s sti or skylines but the all respect my wee 1.6 16v saxo

Matty_VTR
6th November 2007, 21:53
suppose cos im young all my mates have like puntos, and 206's so no1 can really comment saying my cars rubbish. i have one of the of the most powerful cars out of them all. Part from my cousins Xsara VTS theres just no competition there.

Jamie
6th November 2007, 22:01
All french cars get stick ... the moment i got mine.. oh its a french pile of shit...

Owel im sure il go jap or german next.. i have an opertunity to have a scoob for my next car but im thinking new 5 series atm..

7th November 2007, 19:19
i just want to comment on the first post and i realise this is a old post but i just have to, All my mates give me props for owning a gti but as soon as i mention a saxo this is what they say


''Saxos are just the scrapings up off the pug floor''


Really annoys the shit outta me

7th November 2007, 20:50

Get it all the time...

VTG - VT Gola [Gola being a shite make (even though they make pretty good bags....]

and such comments as " I didnt park next to you today because it might fall apart"

They shut up as the lights though.

Been called a "Chav C*nt" by a VW beetle owner before, due to shouting at him to get off his phone whilst he was driving.

I love my car no matter what anyone says.:hug: :hug:

Saxo's are the lick no matter what you hear from anyone - I love my VTS and get alot of respect for it and people think the two tone paint looks wicked and when I put my foot to the floor it shifts so gains respect from all sorts of cars. You'll find the people who say they are 'shit' are only haters and drive things like mummy's and daddy's car because they haven't got their own or drive Ford KA's or something rediculous like that!! BIG UP THE VTS'!!!!

im the same love both our cars - the freelander leaks water from some where when talking with my mates they always say they wouldnt buy a car knowing it leaked - but as i say it wouldnt be a real landy without one !!!

and the lil froggy car gets plenty of stick but its j's car so i stick up for it - well some of the time (sorry dear)

First car, cheap insurance and you can make it look a hell of a lot better then standard if you can be arsed... Sounds spot on to me! plus all my mates havent even got cars or if they do they look more like portable bins coz nooone cares for em... My only complaint id compilicated shite wiring when your doing any upgrades to the electronics...

10th November 2007, 15:08
Seems like other drivers just despise Saxo drivers. Was at the lights beside a '97 320i last night, I was in the right lane she was left and the woman was glaring at me properly, honestly have no idea why, lights turned green and she really gave it some- her rear wheels even spun, but as the road merged into one it was the little red paxo that was ahead :P, childish on my part fair enough but at least it was clean, but then she pulled up to the side of me at 40mph (single carriage way at this point- she was on the wrong side), waved at me daring me to race her, I obviously didn't so she cut in front, stamped on the brakes, almost causing me to crash into her, and then she sped off. Pissed that she got pwned by a Sax tbh, nothing else.

Now I know why Beemer drivers get called bastards/tossers/wankers.
