I feel like a bit of University Challenge this morning, don't you?

[Nigeyy]

Quick, starter for 10:

Name the colour and make of car that followed a turning vehicle blindly across a junction this morning cutting me off?

F%&*king idiot -I knew it was coming and prepared accordingly. See, it's an international constant. I can truly say the last 3 issues I've had commuting have all been with this colour car and make (different times, locations, drivers). At an anecdotal level (I know it's not scientific) it surely has to point to the fact that more self centred, careless, me-first idiots choose them to drive them!

Arrrrgh, rant over..

Black AUDI?

Failing that I'll try Samuel Pepys, that's an answer in each show at least once.

You'll only get 5 points for that half correct answer. C'mon, silver?

Silver Range rover?

 

[Nigeyy]

While you do get them Chelsea Tractors over here, I don't think they're as common. Strangely, never had a problem with a Range Rover though -silver or otherwise.

Silver Range rover?

Sorry didnt see you were based in US.

Was it - some kind of silver stationwagon sedan pickup thingy that does 15 mpg?

 

[Nigeyy]

Oh now you're getting way cold. I think you have to rethink this a little bit -let's rephrase the question: "I am a man who thinks he has a huge appendage but in reality it is a hideous deformity on my head. What colour and make of car would I choose to inflict thoughtless and careless driving techniques on the rest of the world?"

Police car?

Radio 4 are dramatising Pepys' diary at the moment. This morning he described his swollen testicle as a ''cataplasm of the cod.'' This is bound to come up in a pub quiz sometime soon.

Right, where was I? Oh yes. I'm going for a black Golf though the black Audi has to be favourite so far.

red BMW?

Police car?

Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding We have a winner! (well I assume 'MW' meant 'BMW').

While Audis may be the new BMW for driving standards, I have to say the Boys in Black Beemers haven't let down my expectations so far..... They can cross all international boundaries.

Do have to say though, one of my fellow cyclo-commuters at work answered it correctly within milli-seconds...... I barely had time to finish the question before he blurted out the answer.

Gaaaawd.
