Audi drivers

I read a thread the other day talking about how people had preconceived ideas about drivers based on their car (specifically Audi drivers).

Something along the lines of Audi drivers were inconsiderate and wanted to race at lights.

I was an Audi driver previously (and fitted neither) but I'm interested to hear what other cars have preconceived notions.

The only problem I have with most Audi and BMW drivers is that they have an awfully bad habit of tailgating when you’re only doing the legal speed limit!

My lovely friend drives an Audi. I don’t think she’s inconsiderate, but I can absolutely see her racing at lights 😂

I drive an electric car and the amount of cars revving their engines at me at the lights is ridiculous. 99% of them are Audi drivers or BMW.

Interested in this thread?

Nowt wrong with Audis. Or BMWs. Never sure why they aren't fitted with indicators however...

I drive a Fiat 500. I drive it the same as I drive DH's much bigger car. However, nobody will sit behind it. They panic and try and get past me asap, ignoring the fact I'm doing 60 for example and will then sit in front of me doing 55. I get cut up a lot as well. People pull out in front of me an awful lot and I have to slam on my brakes. Never happens when I drive DH's car. The perception, presumably, is that I'm a very slow woman. They don't read what speed I'm doing, just the make/model of the car and have to be in front of me.
