^^while that has Bruv occupants, the car's not a bad as it could be. Doesn't anyone have any examples of the stuff Stevie used to like?

To be honest I prefer Oem spec cars,but its the 786 comments and other sly digs people make.i don't care what the next man does to his car unless I'm trying to buy it.the sly racist comments are a bit much tho and its sad that the ones guilty of it are the ones a lot of people ass lick on here due to their vast knowledge. You get my drift people. Anyway I'm late for my edl meeting gotta fly chow

At the end of the day, it's humour.
I get called a peado, because I like to detail my cars. I get on with my life and let's be honest, being called a peado is far worse than being called a bruv or having the 786 option mentioned.
Others get called chavs, the welsh take a battering and so on
If some one of Asian origin be it Indian or Pakistani can't take a bruv or 786 joke then they need to try an cultivate a sense of humour

The number 786 is the total value of the letters of "Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim" which means something in islammanse73 wrote:Please explain this 786 option I think it might be on my build listKos wrote:At the end of the day, it's humour.

So, the 786 option is synonymous styling trends that Asians carry out on their cars. It's not only Asians that do these mods but they have made them infamous
People who over clean their cars have been likened to being a peado because it's viewed as abnormal behaviourCloggy Saint wrote:.... and please explain the connection between detailing a car and pAEdophilia?

Oh ffs people, use the grey matter between your ears!!
You all know what is meant with 'zone lingo' terminology. Read a few posts and you'll grasp the general meaning of a particular term.
Us humans are truly blessed with wonderful things like imagination, problem solving, creative thinking, reasoning etc.
We sent men into space so it doesn't take much brain power to work out a meaning of something used in daily zone speak!!!
If you still have trouble grasping this then you're either foreign, and excused from not undestanding British humour, or so immensely thick that I wouldn't trust you to tell me the colour of orange juice...
Stupidity rant over

I'm sure the number 786 has something to do with some kind of Muslim brother hood motor trade type organization
I was wrong it has quite a deep meaning in Islam apparently.........

also notice someone beat me to it should really finish reading a post before i reply

Only Asian and Pakistani Muslims use 786, all other Muslims don't use it or recognise it.to be fair to kos he gets stick as does rav,pony,pacerpete and a few others.you guys all know each other outside the zone and are considered friends to me.786 doesn't offend me personally and I'm up for banter myself. I just feel for certain zoners who are not as knowledgable as you guys and may not understand your banter and expressed my feelings. Remember guys like Pete,e30 topless,bss Barry and a few others are who everybody turns to for certified advice.to be fair I'm in the hood surrounded by council turds and bruvs you get me.im like a pig in shit lol

I thought I'd drop a note on this.
I am just back from Manchester, me & the woman went to visit one of her friends. She's shacked up with Paris, a rapper.
Drinks where flowing and a merry time it was. Until I called him a Bruv, a harmless e30 term... I thought.
It's not... apparently.
Thanks guys.

He was very upset. I'll say no more on the matter.
What I will say is, the better halves friend left Northern Ireland speaking like me. Now she sounds rather.. urban.

Her father originally hails from Iran so maybe the accent didn't soak to the bone!

The natural Foundation Accent for any language can only be learned up to the age of three. After this, it is copied and reproduced. That's why you will find some ethnic minorities able to switch between their own dialects and something that might come out of the mouth of Prince Charles.

lol, NI doesn't have rappers. Well there is one chap but I think he's damaged.
My better halves friend, she was from NI. She shacked up with the rapper from Manchester. We where over there as guests in Manchester.
So yes, I called the man a Bruv in his own house.
