Speed bumps!
I lost my exhaust to a speed bump, clonked it off one just before Christmas. Although it did force my hand in deciding what to spend my Christmas bonus on 
Three main cases for me main one and most pointless
I pick up my girlfriend and on some occasions my dad (not together I must add) from Piccadilly train station Manchester and why I don’t learn my lesson I don’t know but I have done it a few times and gone into the pick up area. Can I get over the darn thing, can I b*****ks its like a full size ski slope. NIGHTMARE HONEST
2. Work speed bumps bit easier this time but very unexpected trust, I can get the front over but if I don’t apply the brakes all the way to road it bottoms out and sounds horrible
3. These ones aint to bad but are annoying because they are a full road long and its some distance I end up with a big line of cars behind me every time its just stupid
So I am with you lot on this one.

you go over a speed bumb in a dutton pheaton and youve lst almost all the underside of your car. go over it in a westfield and as its so low to the ground youd probably dent the casing and all that. hopless things they really are

There arn't any speed humps in Sheffield. They're just potholes.
Speed humps in Hartlepool are great. If you hit them at over 40 they would do you a mischief, however rolling over at 30 feels fine.
The little square ones are the worst as there is no transition from flat to angled. Nice rolling ones are the best.

Could be why more and more people are buying 4 x 4's, and because of the sh***y state of some of the roads in Britain.
makes me laugh everytime i think of speed bumps, they want to discourage people from using 4x4's for school run etc etc, then stick up speed bumps anywhere and everywhere, and they will jar your spine in anything less than a monster truck then wonder why everyone has 4x4's for the urban journeys?

hey we were driving around looking for a post office it was in a housing estate near sheffield uni not in the centre or owt! ask stilosporting he was driving! :nerner:
Driving around houseing estates in Sheffield.. Your Stilo got bullet proof glass?
I've driven all over sheffield. Used to have cuppa tea and choccy biscuit and watch trashy tv at 3am after work at a mates house there. That was just up from the Uni. Crookesmore road.

LOL! my apologies for my response, had a little bit of alcohol in my system
it was somewhere near a big roundabout by the uni! didnt look like the estate was too bad :chin: but bullet proof glass? it maybe an idea as the stilo is needin its third windscreen
i know that doesnt really help but they definatly were speed bumps and not potholes, i can be abit slow but not that bad
honest
