Shite taxis

Post by ZedLeg »

Got picked up in a Ssangyong Rodius last night. The most uncomfortable car I’ve ever been in. Had a weirdly high flat floor and stupid tiny cabin chairs that only went half way up my back.

It was worse than the Mitsubishi Outlander hybrid which seemed to have zero suspension and the Passat CC which had zero headroom.

If I was in charge I’d mandate that they were only allowed to use sensible VAG cars for taxis.

My wife gets very embarrassed with how excited I get over a Taxi ride in a Skoda Superb :lol:

There is no more suitable vehicle for the job 😎

We've got a Skoda Octavia estate in Croatia right now - it's absolutely 100% fit for purpose 8-)

The joke is that your post could be taken to read that you have a Skoda Octavia and have taken up working as a taxi driver in Croatia, rather than you having hired a taxi in Croatia that was a Skoda Octavia.

Does 'we've got' not imply RENTED a car? Do people think they 'have' their taxis? I don't get it.

:D I understood it as intended, it could possibly make sense if you wrote the post from the taxi in question though.

Reply is in a shite taxi thread therefore 'weve got...' implies it's a taxi you're on about.

On the rented car in Croatia point Sixt tried to do me on our c3 (not a taxi) when I gave it back on Thursday.

I've noticed a change.

You used to espouse sensible fascistic type views about human type problems but since you've got new skin in the game, as it were, you've definitely regressed into a poofter like state a bit.

Or maybe the nazi you bunged one up now dictates opinion for you.

That would make sense.
