evil knievel Posted December 2, 2008 Report Posted December 2, 2008 http://www.orange.co.uk/cars/picturegal ... gacomeback no.10 really pisses me off!
Smudger105e Posted December 2, 2008 Report Posted December 2, 2008 Ranking in at No.10 in the list, with 915 currently on the road, is the Ford Anglia. Seeing that 1,6 million of these beasts were produced between 1939 and 1967, surely it can only be the die-hard fans who are responsible for these cars still being seen out and about? We'd prefer them to stay in the past, or perhaps relegated to the status of a Corgi collector’s car. Certainly, we seriously hope this naff-chic appreciation for the Anglia doesn't catch on. Anything that looks like it might wink at you should never have made it off the production line in the first place, that’s for sure. They haven't even got their facts right! Less than 1,000 still on the raoad? poppycock!! And although I can see why some people don't like the styling of the Anglebox, it's hardly the 10th naff/chic car of all time!! 10. Ford Anglia 9. Audi Quattro 8. Austin Maestro 7. 2CV 6. Triumph Stag 5. Ford Capri 4. Escort XR3i 3. Pug 205 GTi 2. Reliant Robin 1. Ford Granada Have these guys got something against Fords? Makes me want to contact them and tell them they are talking absolute twaddle...
bigglesmk2 Posted December 2, 2008 Report Posted December 2, 2008 That's just not right,im goin bed to cry myself to sleep
supersport Posted December 2, 2008 Report Posted December 2, 2008 i like all the cars in that list! i must be naff then!
emu Posted December 2, 2008 Report Posted December 2, 2008 read it properly, and it makes sense. Its about cars that at one point as desiarable as herpes. yet, are now quite sought after.
razersedge Posted December 2, 2008 Report Posted December 2, 2008 no 10 the anglia no 9 the audi quattro no 5 the capri these idiots are the sort of idiot's that think renault, fiat and citroen make good cars no they are french cars that are going to fall apart by the time you get to the end of the road and look like plastic tits with wheels
razersedge Posted December 2, 2008 Report Posted December 2, 2008 but this is the quote that is going to make me cancel my contract with orange But with the new Fiat 500 retailing at around £8,000, we really don't see any reason why people have to suddenly give up on the thought of owning a cool car, even during the credit crunch.
c20xe Posted December 2, 2008 Report Posted December 2, 2008 I'd have any of them cars rather than a phone contract from that fooking swank phone company orange
flyingbanana Posted December 2, 2008 Report Posted December 2, 2008 What do they know not alot by the looks of it

peranapete Posted December 2, 2008 Report Posted December 2, 2008 This was probably wrote by some prat that has only ever been on two buses in his life for a ride, one being red and the other his girlfriend. (maybe he got taken to school on a blue bus also) And who probably does not realize yet that they he will end up as our local councillor in our local borough after Orange realize what a prat he is and sacked him.
rsdaz Posted December 2, 2008 Report Posted December 2, 2008 what a bunch of twats they even sugested selling an audi quattro for a new vauxhall insignia.
bigvee Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 peranapete I don't think he would have a girl friend, your totally right about his carer next local council then an MP!!!!! I wonder how this country got in this mess!!!
Guest cortinamad-gonetoo Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 its just knobs who write things like that
Boreham Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 its just knobs who write things like that agreed.. same cu£%s wil get carsover 8-10 years old banned off the road as not enviormently friendly.... same people don't regard it as recyling... they never elude to the ""carbon footprint "" of producing a new car. ignorance is rife... long live the OSF way..
Copey Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 no point gettin worked up about it, at the end of the day its a phone company, what do they actually know about cars?
Boreham Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 no point gettin worked up about it, at the end of the day its a phone company, what do they actually know about cars? correct... but I've shown a few guy's at work the..."progress " on my Mk1.. and the reaction is... " aah ye would drive that to work .... would ye" I tell ye man... people are like cattle.... show them something..and they'll eat it... they jsut follow the guy in front... old cars are "Dangerous" "smelly" "noisy" the phone company has a large catchment and is abusing it's influnce... with ignorant shite... I mean apart from the " Austin Maestro " 10. Ford Anglia 9. Audi Quattro 8. Austin Maestro 7. 2CV 6. Triumph Stag 5. Ford Capri 4. Escort XRwee i 3. Pug 205 GTi 2. Reliant Robin 1. Ford Granada the rest of the car's were big seller's and now sought after.. to elude to the fact they were disliked at the time.. better stop.. might start slaying people
lotusless Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 i wouldn't lose any sleep over it though the future is not orange...............
Boreham Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 i wouldn't lose any sleep over it though the future is not orange............... IT'S GOOD TO TALK..
bazbiker Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 I just sent them an email via there contact us section saying: Due to your recent article "Naff-chic cars" I will be cancelling my mobile phone contract with you as you are obviously not the kind of company I would like to deal with. I don’t even have an Orange mobile phone, but let’s hope someone gets there ass kicked for it
richie_stix Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 i know it aint a ford... but 205 gti, best handling FWD of all time, 0-60 in 6.6s... er, sounds pretty good to me, and better than it's modern equivelants! Apple Pies mate, all of them were cool cars!
mk1super Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 People calm down they less people know about our cars the better all the more around for us, every cloud has a silver lining
