smartnhappy Posted March 7, 2006 Posted March 7, 2006 I pulled into get fuel today, across from a blinged-out Ford Excursion. He laughed and synically said my car was almost as big as his truck. I said no, my car was almost as big as his gas tank......shut him right up. Later in line to pay, he asked me how much it took and I said $13 dollars filled it up. I asked him how much his fillup totalled and he said "$92 dollars, but that'll take us all the way to Montreal". I paused for a moment to do some mental math, then said "my fillup will take me all the way to Montreal too, but for $92 dollars I could go to Montrael 7 times". This had the whole Esso station snickering. Felt good !! Lucid moments that get the upper hand seem fewer and farther apart as I get older, so when I have a good one I want to share it with an appreciative audience. Any other good comebacks that anyone has come up with lately ???? Quote

Guest PhilDuPerv Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 This happened a while back but still makes me giggle This is a conversation I got into one evening when trying to purchase my fuel on the way to work ...it went along the following line . Spotty Garage Youth :- Thats not yours that smart car is it ? Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " Why whats wrong with them ? " Spotty Garage Youth :- " Oh I just hate em mate I think they're sh1t ... no offense like " Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " None taken mate ... which one did you test drive ? " Spotty Garage Youth :- " Eh ? " Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " Well I assume that seeing as you say they're sh1t you had taken one for a test drive and came to that conclusion " Spotty Garage Youth :- " Nah mate its just that they're tiny like . " Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " Oh right I see so whos have you been a passenger in then ?" Spotty Garage Youth :- " Eh ?" Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " Well you say that they are Tiny and I was just wondering which one you had been inside of cos mine has plenty of room in the front " Spotty Garage Youth :- " No I havent been in one I just think they look tiny on the outside " Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " Oh really thanks for that couldnt say I had notice that before you mentioned it. Spotty Garage Youth 2 (who until now had gone unmentioned) :- " Well I saw em on Top Gear the other night and they said that they were slow and crap handling " Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " Yep thats a fair accesment if not somewhat limited a little , but if I wanted speed and handling I would take my bike out " Spotty Garage Youth : "yer but theres no like room in the boot " Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " Once again a correct observation , but I dont need much room in the back , if I did I would use my large car " Spotty Garage Youth :- "So if that little car is so good why do you have the bike and the car" Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " Well the bike I have because I am a biker , and lot of my social life is based around bikes , the Meriva I have for the Mrs to use and also for moving stuff and people arround in , the Smart I have for fun , its my play thing , its brings me a smile just by driving it , gets a reaction where ever I go , and its not like any of the other steel boxes that all look the same as each other. " Spotty Garage Youth :- " Well I dont think they really stand out ! " Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " Really ! Okay then there are around 6 cars on the forecourt now we know you noticed my car but can you name another one of them without turning round ?" Spotty Garage Youth :- "Er dont know . Any way I wouldnt drive one cos thay look ugly " Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " In that case I hope that you never meet a girl with your attitude cos if thats the case your never going to get a sh@g " Spotty Garage Youth 2 :- " Yep hes got a point there ****** ( name removed to protect the stupid ) , thats probably why your still a virgin " Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " Anyway you two guys seem to know a lot about quality vehicles what do you drive ? " Spotty Garage Youth :- " Err nothng yet , cant afford it " Spotty Garage Youth 2 :- "Pegeot Streetfighter" ( moped to those not in the know ). Phil the dashing Smart owner :- " ah in that case I bow to both of your's superior knowledge " And with that I paid my ?20 for a full tank of juice and proceeded to leave the building. See this is the type of thing that makes me glad to have a smart , would have missed this if I had a corsaastrasaxo . Quote

Speedie Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 Wife said a guy at work was going on how a smart was zipping around all the traffic on the way into work - I told her she should have piped up "and he was getting great mileage too!". Cheers, Cameron American tourists? Smile and wave...... Quote
pulsating Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 It's getting harder these days to come up with witty retorts, because everyone is so positive about the car all the time! Haven't heard a "shoulda bought a Harley" quip for ages... Quote
