I often wonder what comes first? Do you already drive like an aresehole BEFORE getting behind the wheel of an Audi or does it turn people stupid once they enter the car??? Also, I think the fact that most people driving them have nicked them leads to the stigma hence their chavvy status.

My ex had an Audi. Was a hand me down from his parents. He drove it like he would any other car. It was other drivers than were knobs.
We were on a motorway, and about to pull off on an exit to get home. Some knob kept pulling infront of us in a way that made it impossible to exit. So we missed it, and had to keep driving. The bloke in the other car visibility laughing. Probably thought he had one over on an Audi driver.

What with all the news and partygate etc. I read bars as Boris lol....

Yea. I'd hate to see him too in neighbours gardens.

You’d hate me OP! Finally got my outdoor entertainment space sorted and I currently have few friends round to break it in - probably going to wind down in a couple of hours tho

@Mellowyellow222 you assume correctly. As others have said, Audis have a "reputation ".... I'm not stupid, I drive a BMW..(joke)

@Yerroblemom1923 urgh just stop! It’s so gross. Who are you to judge the rest of the world. If you don’t have anything nice to say just keep quiet and let people choose to drive wherever car they want

A cowboy saunters into a car showroom and says, "Audi."

😂

The Audi thing is only seems to be a UK thing btw.

Although here I think BMW drivers are more on the receiving end of jokes as its implied BMWs don't come with indicators.

YANBU op. I hate them in terraced house gardens. If you are lucky enough to live in a detached property and won't disturb the neighbours at 1 in the morning, then fine. However, for those of us who live very close to a twat of a neighbour with a makeshift bar who thinks its fine to be out there with his noisy mates into the early hours, when the rest of us have to get up early for work the next day, then no it is not fine. I would personally love to torch my neighbours bar. Bloody ridiculous, optics, fancy bar stools, stereo system but the rest of the garden looks like a rubbish tip! You have to trudge through long grass, copious amounts of dog crap and rusting garden tools to reach it. Roll on winter.

Oof, the snobbery on this thread is atrocious! Some of you need to stop peering over the fence at your neighbours' gardens and mind your own business.

Yerroblemom1923 · 15/07/2022 13:53

@Carla2601 are you new to AIBU....?

If they're keeping me awake at 1am, then it is my business.

Thankfully none of my neighbours have one, so all I've got to contend with is an Airbnb across the road.

Saw this in Tesco yesterday and thought of this thread! 😁

Lol, well I’ve seen these in two friends’ gardens so not a particularly overbearing trend in my world. I thought they were quite cool. If they were linked to perceptions of showing off or to people I didn’t like, I’d probably feel differently.

Yerroblemom1923 · 25/07/2022 10:56

@Carla2601 guess we all know what you drive......?!🤔

Carla2601 · 25/07/2022 22:55

@Yerroblemom1923 i don’t. Well I don’t own a car I hire one as and when I need it.
