Things to not do with your new 4X4

[mp-seventythree]

Went to a party in a friend's field at the weekend (drinking and camping), and a friend of ours was there with his new Nissan Pathfinder. He decided to take it round the field in RWD and do some donuts, j-turns and handbrake turns etc. Three of us joined him in the truck, and all was fun until he did this...

And it's a fucking heavy car to try and put back on four wheels

[abcdefz]

:cool:

[mp-seventythree]

Sad to say but it was actually really good fun. I just felt sorry that he caused about five grand's worth of damage for 10 minutes of fun. But he can afford it(y)

[SobaViolence]

lol...


SUVs never were off-road vehicles.
it's a misleading marketing campaign.
i'm looking at you, Hummer.

[mp-seventythree]

Seriously, this thing was pretty incredible off road. But the guy had it set to rear wheel drive only, turned off the traction control, and was doing high speed handbrake turns on dry uneven ground. It was an inevitable accident really (but still quite funny).

And I agree, Hummers are shite.

i love how brits refer to the weekend as a destination. \m/

[tracky]

Hahaha all I can say is sucked in. Sorry, but it just makes my day to see this :D (i'm not the biggest fan of 4x4's)

[Planetary]

nice to see you taking photos instead of helping. hes a cockmuncher fo having a 4x4

[TurdBerglar]

was it one of those slow ooooooh shiiiiiiiiiiit tips?

[Otis Driftwood]

Things to do with a 2x4:
1) Get US flag
2) Take of shirt, rub flabby belly
3) Yell Hooooo-oooo at the top of your lungs
4) Clear the ring of heels

[icy manipulator]

this is why you buy a 20 year old pajero that costs a grand to do this kind of stuff in (y)

[mp-seventythree]

was it one of those slow ooooooh shiiiiiiiiiiit tips?

Yeah, pretty much. we were going sideways at about 40 mph, stopped then the car fell over.

I didn't take the photos, and I'm the one furthest from camera pushing the car back onto its wheels.
And my friend didn't buy the car, it belongs to the company he works for.

[abcdefz]

Yeah, pretty much. we were going sideways at about 40 mph, stopped then the car fell over.



...sounds like it was tired.

[mp-seventythree]

More than just tired, it was totally fucked. He'd had it bouncing off the rev limited for 10 minutes non-stop, and was donuting and handbraking so hard that the anti roll bars broke, leaving the wheels pointing outwards at the top.

He still managed to drive it the 13 miles back to his house with his 3 year old daughter and due-to-give-birth-in-three-days wife (who was extremely pissed off with him).

[abcdefz]

Has the boss chimed in yet? Al jefe?

[mp-seventythree]

Not sure, he's off work for 2 weeks as his wife was due to give birth yesterday. He was very calm about hte whole thing, he said he'd just take the car to a garage and get it fixed.

It probably helps that his company is one of the world's biggest car manufacturers, and they don't seem too bothered by the way he treats his cars. I've heard that out of the last six cars he's had through work (and they give him a new one every six months), only one was returned to them fully intact.

[b-grrrlie]

Yeah, pretty much. we were going sideways at about 40 mph, stopped then the car fell over....sounds like it was tired. Ha ha! (y)

[mp-seventythree]

He needs a real 4x4...

That thing would last about three seconds if my friend was driving it

If your friend were driving it. Were.

If=were.

Don't make me come in here again.

[mp-seventythree]

Don't make me come in here again.

PFFFT! You weren't even invited

Or should that be wasn't invited?:confused:



;)

[abcdefz]

Iddin't.

[jackrock]

Smooth move, exlax!

[mickill]

I'd have flipped that bad boy back onto it's wheels by myself!

At least no one got hurt.

[mp-seventythree]

I think only the driver's pride was hurt....not by the crash but by his wife punching him in front of 12 other people.

[TimDoolan]

My sympathies, with a cool picture.

[buddylee]

Nissan Pathfinder were never ment to hit the dirt, thier ment to be driven by girls.

with all my red neck friend who seem to love to get up on lawns have never flipped anything .... get a ford or chevy truck

[mp-seventythree]

Maybe your friends don't push their cars to the limits like my friend did...

The choice of 4X4s in the UK isn't great, and we don't get Ford or Chevy trucks here (not that I would buy one if they were available).

If I wanted to get a 4X4 there would only be two choices - Land Rover or Toyota Hilux.

People driving 4x4 round a city whats the fucking point?
Retards.
Its like whats it gonna do that a car doesn't apart from pollute more and likly kill more people? Its just a stupid big retard machine.
A chelsea tractor
Stupid retard mobile.
:mad:

[mp-seventythree]

Don't want to piss on your bonfire or anything, but that car has the same size engine as most regular diesel cars (2.5 litre), and Nissan / Renault fit catalytic converters to their diesels to make them the least polluting diesel engines available.

I agree with what you're saying about people driving 4X4s in towns and cities. It's just fucking stupid.

This sums up my attitude to people who drive cars like this in general.
