Loads of ones already that i've had/heard!
Mine is just when you meet somone who has been told your 'Into' cars..
Then they ask you what you have...
Then they start telling you everything they know about YOUR car and they talk absolute bullshit including there 'Mate' that has a 300bhp scooby that's standard but hasn't got a turbo 
People who say 'It only gets you from A to B' seriously piss me off, as does anyone who gets involved in a conversation about cars who isn't interested in cars FUCK OFF

Yeah everyone seems to have a mate with a car that'd blitz mine
"going 'cruising' this weekend" usually followed by a big smirk as they obviously think what they've said is highly amusing
"why spend all that money on your car I bought my A4 convertible and it's faster than anything I've raced"
"What car have you got? (Mazda MPS) What's that? Just a shitty mazda ain't it? My kia is better than that"
I just ignore people at work now, apart from the couple actually into cars who are into it aswell, everyone else I just agree with or sigh at anything they think is funny

When i had my escort rst i had blocks on the bonnet to raise it.
Pull up to traffic lights and a bloke runs over & starts pushing on my bonnet, i beep the horn and he starts shouting at me saying i will cause an accident when my bonnet flies open.

Well technically.......
I've had people saying i must be rich because i've had a 350z and a BM convert 
"Bet that costs a lot to fill up because its a 2.0turbo" Heard that one a lot, its generally the size of the tank not the engine that denotes how much fuel you can put in

This! Does my f**king tree in! I'm the only person at my work really into cars. Nearly every day, I get it, "what you doing tonight? Out cruising? Burning some petrol? Wasting money?"
"yeah I might go see a few mates for abit, what you doing?"
"Nothing planned, just watching T.V"
And I'm the one with no life for going out and socialising am I?
