Pet peeve

So what are yours to do with cars in general?

One of my biggest ones is people fitting useless gauges that they don't even know how to interpret or the factory already provided because they look 'cool'. I have no problem with useful gauges that they understand and use. For example a tachometer on a car which did not already have a factory one.

Seatbelt flapping in my VL.
Boot leaking water in my VL.
When people get out of the car and leave the seatbelt twisted a bit.
How hard it is to adjust venetians on your own.

(Ok so the flapping seatbelt doesnt upset me much, it's actually kinda cute).

Tinting your headlights must be the most stupid idea around. Why not tint the light bulb in your lounge, oh wait then you won't be able to see at night.

Mine are....

1. People who have a brand new car, damage it, and don't get it fixed. If you can afford the $500/month loan payment you can afford the $550 excess. Don't be such a tightar*e!!
2. People who say 'corollas are the epitome of quality'. DAAAAT. Wrong. Mine had 3 warranty issues.
3. People who buy a $40k hybrid, after dispensing with a perfectly good $15k commodore, because they think they will save money on fuel
4. People who spend thousands modifying their cars to go faster then...drive about at the same speed I do.
5. People who spend thousands on a new stereo only to listen to complete rubbish that seems to be a reverberating bass line
6. Drivers who don't yield right of way to pedestrians
7. Vulgar bumper/window stickers that are racist, homophobic, sexist or otherwise cries to the world that you are a complete tit.
8. Gaudy seat covers that in no way match the car they are fitted too.
9. Seatbelt comforters - because you never know, the seatbelt my chafe its way through your carotid artery and cause all sorts of issues
10. Cheap aftermarket hubcaps - seriously folks, hubcaps from wreckers are the same price and don't make you look like a tightwad
