Arrogant Cavalier
We used to congregate at a particular place every evening and everyone who had a car would arrive, non drivers would then decide who “they were rollin’ with” and off we would go to show off to other non mobile peers.
The meeting place was close to the home of one of the girls in our small group and her older brother would often come and chat with us whilst waiting for his mates to turn up.
A particularly arrogant friend of his rocked up in his new(ish) Vauxhall Cavalier SRI, he’d spent copious amounts of money turning this into what he believed could be a “show car”. It was shit but extremely fast.
He took me out for a ride after boasting about all the recent engine modifications that had been done to increase the horsepower. We drove down a tiny little lane (single track) at ridiculous speeds and yes the car was fast but also yes, it handled like a hover craft.....we said goodbye to the road and went straight through a wooden fence into a ditch....the car was fucked, I laughed, he threatened to hit me, we walked home, end of story.
