People generally feel sorry for me. š I think itās just when we see anyone on the back of a recovery truck we all think; āthat could have been meā. If Iād bought that Land Rover... |

In the countryside very little reaction .I get waved at by women on horseback to slow down even when doing 30 in a 60 zone because the car looks fast when stationary and sounds fast at idle.
Overall though most think itās just a 911 and the more subtle colour scheme helps.I got more attention in the gt4 but all cars pale in comparison to the attention you get in a Lamborghini ,that did my head in .

The Fiesta is anonymous on the road as there as so many of them; The Kuga is reasonably popular and I don't seem to get any reaction from anyone (a bit like the C-Max I had before). When I had the old Galaxy, almost everyone wanted to get past, presuming it to be a slow minibus although a few people did get the odd surprise as it handled surprisingly well round corners....

I once joked to a mate that I was thinking of putting a Porsche motor in Bess, he seemed to think it was a great idea for a Q car. No idea if he was right but no doubt the insurance would be through the roof.

Reactions to my bike are somewhat irritating. Because I commute on a full on sports bike everyone on a commuter bike on sunny days and Fridays assumes Iām a sunny day and Friday rider on a poncy bike - even worse if I wear leathers. So they act like theyāre a better rider than me and try stupid things. None of them ever gets away from me and I more often than not negotiate the traffic better than them : 30+ years since I first did this commute on a motorcycle and most modern riders are shite.
Funnily enough I donāt see them in the winter. I also note that half the commuter bikes I see will be off the commute in the second week of April when the first of the daily ULEZ fines drops on their doormat.
