What? You mean you don't have staff to take care of that for you ?

Wife has just informed me that the Tesco delivery man was admiring my car on the driveway today.
He asked her 'is that a new Celicia?'
She has little interest in my car and didn't know what is was called to correct him but did at least know enough to tell him it wasn't a Celicia.

edit, sorry, not sure why that's double posted.

It’s definitely a double points Club Card scam
The OP is just looking for a few vouchers on stuff he or she doesn’t need

Stopped at the local shop on my into work this morning. Chap in the car park opened his window to ask 'What make of car is that?' (he could only see the side profile). After I said Toyota he wanted to know what model - GR86 didn't seem to mean anything to him, but then he said 'It looks like a Porsche', so I laughed and said 'I wish'. He finished up with 'Nice car that, looks really smart'.

Got what I can only describe as a ‘Milf double take and follow through” from an attractive pedestrian as I was driving home from town today: I spot her, she spots car, looks down, looks again, I smile, drive past and clock her in the rear view mirror doing a strong 180 twist and stare as I casually continue on my way. Obviously the car she was in love with 
and not this grizzly old f**k-nut. I’ll get over it …

I was thinking earlier today that we're overdue a post in this thread. I'm sure she was gazing wistfully into the rear view mirror as you drove off into the sunset

Clearly a preposterous story, which stretches credibility to breaking point and obviously it didn't happen.I was thinking earlier today that we're overdue a post in this thread. I'm sure she was gazing wistfully into the rear view mirror as you drove off into the sunset
There is no sun in Scotland.
The sun always shines on the righteous. So normally - elsewhere
Went to drop off my Staffy at my parents’ place for the week. It was snowing 
, so I gave the car a little push and slid into the turn. I get out and some kids standing nearby yell “Nice drift!”. I laugh, say thanks.
Then they walk up and hit me with THE question - “Is that a Supra?” I barely get out a “No, it’s a …” before I hear the most disappointed, soul crushing, dream shattering “That’s a shame”
Needless to say, I’m selling the 86 and buying a Supra!

Being mistaken for a Supra = lightweight, amateur-hour sh!t.
Currently at my septuagenarian parents' gaff on the coast. My GR86 in the drive. Sat in the living room this afternoon and a Virgin Media sales bloke is doing the rounds, knocking on the doors to flog his wares.
Said bloke knocks on the door and my dad answers, and I can hear the conversation. Virgin guy opens his sales bullsh!t patter with "I can see you are a man of taste, with this Corvette of yours in the drive".
Politely sent packing, he was, by the old man.
There is no way my parents would fully get the benefit of fancy media package. They can just about manage BBC1, BBC2 and ITV.

Isn't that part of the tactic - deliberately misidentify a car so you engage in conversation to correct them?
