Women driving 350s - problem?

[twobears]

I was told yesterday, for the umpteenth time, that I don't "look like someone who would drive a Zed". This is starting to hack me off now because I wonder what these men (and it is always men) are trying to tell me. I always laugh it off and change the subject but what do they mean I wonder? Do I look like Miss Marple? Heck, I'm not even wearing a tweed suit and sensible brogues But that is what they seem to be implying and it's not exactly flattering

 

Anyone got any good comebacks that I could use next time I go for a business meeting or something similar and pull up in my Zed to slack-jawed amazement from the stuffed shirts in the car park? I need a killer remark to shut them up

" want a ride " haha

[twobears]

Um, not sure about that one - slight possibility it could be misconstrued

[frenshy]

" yes sorry but my headlight eyelashes havent arrived yet"

 

Ill bet that would get a reddening of cheeks !

The Zed is a masculine car - thats a fact. Women do not look like your average Zed driver which is why in particular women look cool as f*** driving a Zed.

 

If I man drove a Peugeot 206 CC convertable they would not look like a typical driver for that car...........................granted by virtue of the fact that they're driving that hateful piece of @*!# at all they are likely to look like a boss-eye'd moron with a small string of dribble leaking out of their mouth but you get my point.

To me -

 

"and I would not expect to see you in a hairdresser's car Hugh"

 

[twobears]

Thanks everyone. Knew you would make me feel better

 

Now, where's that car eyelash website when you need it?

[NeilMH]

Yes...it's a complement...say thank you very much.

[Dblock]

Just say either "how do you know I'm a woman" or u mad bro?

[The Chubby Ninja]

I think its hot when you see women driving quick cars. its weird but it pushes my buttons

[fairladyz2013]

Say "let's race, hope you like losing"

[Chris AME]

Refer to their cars as cute little toys, will make them feel wonderfull

[ioneabee]

and you can honeslty say its not a pen*s extension

[Bockaaarck]

Just say "....I know, it's weird this car thing isn't it. Fortunately, looking at your car, at least you do look like a bored, under achieving, disappointment to your wife, salary man. So I guess it can be accurate..."

[kbeast35]

just say to them "really? and what car do you drive?" and whatever their answer is just reply "bit gay" and walk off

 

unless of course they also drive a zed!!

[twobears]

Some good suggestions there. Will try using one or two of them next time I am confronted by a 'Zed denier'

 

Twice in the last couple of weeks I have been told that I look 'too respectable' to be driving a Zed. What the heck is that supposed to mean? I am guessing it must mean 'You look a right dowdy old frump, get yourself a Saxo (insert any other boring car name here)". How should I make myself look less "respectable" anyway? Cover myself with risque tattoos and wear clothes best suited to a lady of the night? I don't know why it's suddenly started to annoy me but it is doing Maybe I should take the Zed out for a nice drive to cheer myself up and forget about the idiots I seem to meet?

On a similar vein........ I got stopped by the police whilst driving my MR2 Turbo, nothing "boy racer" about, just a "sleeper" looking very OEM, but they couldn't see who was driving due to the rear window being blacked out.

 

First thing the copper says is "Whats a guy your age driving a car like this for".

 

Now it must of been a good day for me, as quick as a flash, I replied "So you drive a robin reliant do you" ? to say he wasn't best pleased was an understatement :-) but it made my day.

[coldel]

Just say 'oh' and turn your back on them and talk to someone else!

[spursmaddave]

Some female Zed drivers are hot

 

[DoogyRev]

[KyleR]

I don't see it as an insult. The zed is a pretty big "muscle car". Are you a big muscly lady?

[Mrs Buster]

"look like someone who would drive a Zed".

 

simple response is "neither do you"

[spursmaddave]

"look like someone who would drive a Zed".

 

simple response is "neither do you"

 

Or "how would you know as you don't have one"

 

Anyway plenty of women Zed drivers on here, some of them are even female too
