Andy the other UK term I've heard is 'Wide Boy', particularly in the Essex area. Am I right?

WestSideBilly,

I live in the 'burbs....I try not to take the car into the city.

Aus2000,

I have something called door poppers installed in the door lock mechanism. I push a button and the door pops ajar 1/4 inch. I have the same thing installed for the trunk also.

In England, we have Boy Racers.
The profile of a typical boy racer is :

Age 17 - 22
Always wears a baseball cap
Very spotty
Girlfriend about 15 - 16 years old (thinks he is brilliant because he has a car )
Has the loudest exhaust known to man
Has the loudest stereo system known to man
Makes it his personal challenge to drive 1 inch from your rear bumper (not in the stook )
Usually hangs around close to Mcdonalds drive-ins in packs of around 20 or so
Thinks beating old grannies off the lights is an achievement

I think you het the picture
