Car Hire Warrington
Are you ready for an "on the road" personality test? Tracy at "Random on line" mentions various origins of the car colour personality test on line. For example, the "Fun at Work" blog by Robin Thompson as quoted in the June 20 2005 edition of the Herald in Beckley, as well as Color Matters.com. Additionally an unidentified UK study believes that anyone who walks into a car hire Warrington outlet, for example, to order a black vehicle is not a conformist, a policeman or an undertaker, but a road hog! Black cars equal shaded windows, and Mafia bosses. So next time you hear a guy blowing his horn at a traffic light, peep in your rear view mirror and do not be surprised if that black convertible is driven by Colin Farrell, or a Scorpio on a rampage!
Walk into that car and van hire Manchester outlet with the word "silver car" on your lips and they will look at you blankly. Why? Well, they remember good, old Aunty Phyllis driving 140 mph down country lanes in her hired silver Citreon? She was well known for perfectly oiled brakes at traffic lights, cross roads and zebra crossings, but the memory of her putting that tiny foot down on the accelerator still has your mum quaking in her boots. On her 75th birthday Phyllis sped down the high street too and the sight of her grinning in that plush interior, her silver hair matching the car upholsterycertainly had the folks talking. Some are convinced silver cars are trouble, and that the Great Train Robbery gang drove a silver hatchback, but the fact has not yet been verified. In any event, even if Phyllis overtook a curve and smashed into a lamp post, the vehicle outlet was very nice about it!
When car hire Stockport get requests in for pink vehicles, they might quake in their shoes. Yes, pink cars are driven by kind and good hearted folk who believe the phrase "forever young". Pink-style drivers also have a healthy constitution and a high pulse rate. But when it comes to scraping body work, and catching skirts, jackets, and beauty cases in the car door they are the champs! They also mess up alarm systems that tend to wake up neighbourhoods at three in the morninng. Pink vehicles match sunsets and sunrises, roses, and Valentine's Day, and are driven by folks who dream on at the traffic lights, park on yellow lines, and smile stupidly at traffic wardens. As the pink parking tickets continue to pile, most sensible folk prefer to avoid that shade in totem. As Elizabeth Taylor once said "I fell off my pink cloud with a thud!" Hopefully, the next platinum blonde you fancy will not tell you she believes Elvis steers his pink cadillac in the clouds as we speak!
Eco friendly folks are inclined to ask companies like Van hire Stockport for dark green vans to deliver their mushrooms, wood engravings, or organic pizzas in. But did you know a moss coloured vehicle is also a "green eyed monster's" favorite? The type of individual who parks a vehicle in the undergrowth, with its recording systems full on and a private detective registering the conversations of an unfaithful wife, husband boy or girl friend about to do a runner! The little green van could even be part of an industrial spying complex,o r the flying squad checking out a corruption scam. Yes "green" can mean "mean", as well as trees, undergrowth, forests and the preservation thereof. So if you see someone who looks like they are going to organise a "Free Bambi" demonstration, with a tiny camera hidden in their stud earing, do not be surprised if they ask for a green van to do it in.
Car hire Manchester is super convinced that true blue car hirers are the most lovable of characters, the most dependable, the most introspective, the most courageous and good willed. The simple blue Ford, with space for the family dog, can only be expected from a sensible "true blue" global citizen. He will stop when the lights turn red, go when they are green. he will park in the car park and not on the curb. He will respect the policeman, the mayor, the President, the Prime Minister and his mother. He will not talk down to authority or up to royalty. He is a good hearted citizen with a penchant for kind acts. He is your basic Joe Bloggs, and he will keep his car in the garage, wash it every weekend, and only hire it out when he is on holiday.
Van hire Manchester gets a lot of requests for your basic white van. White van users have been overly maligned. Did you know that most white vehicle hirers will bless their car, or at least throw holy water into it? White vans are sometimes driven by saints, often by hospital employees, frequently by the window cleaners and rarely by angels. White is THE regulation colour for Roman Taxis, we are talking Italy. Most white vehicle owners will drive with caution, unless they are Roman of course. They are frequently members of the "illumined contingent". They are not the prime cause of accidents. They will usually pray as they drive or say "Om" at the windshield. They will return the vehicle pristine. However, if this should not be the case, if they hired the white van under false pretentions, they are simply a gang of" no goods" doing what white vans have been doing for yonks, parking on double lines, and making rude signs at anyone who crosses their path!
Cooke Bros Car hire might swear that orders for yellow car hires are on the decrease. . They used to be as popular as New York taxis. Songs have been written about "Yellow" as per Donovan and the Beatles. But could yellow be a cover up for "nuitty as a fruit cake?" Certainly, most yellow vehicles will get attention, some of the sick making variety. See a yellow car parked outside your home when you have a hang over, and you will realise what is intended here. Yellow car drivers are usually extrovert, and noisy, they have their stereos turned up to full volume, or they have just got their driving license. They might be teenagers inclined to put their foot down on the accelerator as they neck the boy or girl friend. Yellow cars are said to be popular in Brazil where they dance the tango a lot. Yellow also means cowardice, so you could find the driver of a yellow car trying to hide from a road hog. Rather a useless pastime!
Cooke Bros Van hire can usually spot the "red potential booking" at first sight. Often ostentatious, sometimes small, frequently loud, with jangly jewellery and big rings, their request is a robust, but usually useless one. See this individual stride towards the counter, for they know what they want, it is a Ferrari and it is red! The fact that red Ferrari vans do not exist does not seem to be a case in point for these folks.These people are your basic Ferrari Fans who like to pass the time chatting all about Enzo, and how the Alfa Romeo is the ultimate definition of "racing red" Of course that body work is incomprable, those dimensions virtually esoteric, etc. They are the folks who would only need a van to holiday and get away from it all. They are red so they are into romance, living to the hilt and "saying it how it is!"! They like to party alot. Some might say the red contingent are charismatic! Others that they are very insecure But they are more often than not time wasters who are looking for any excuse to talk about their dream Ferrari!
Van hire North West, would not be van hire northwest if they did not get in those requests for the vehicle that is so understated it happily organses Meals on Wheels, or something to do with charity - the cream vehicle! Cream is parked neatly. The Cream Contingent likes classic radio, thorough bred dogs, and their relatives well behaved. They will be happy to deliver the stereo equipment to the children's party, or the chairs to the cocktail do, just as a favour. Cream Vans are for moving teenagers and bed sitters' furniture. The cream van driver parks in front of the garden, rarely in the drive. The cream stint will be brief, a 24 hours moving home stint, or a temporary delivery arrangement. You know, shifting the hairdryers from A to B,. Cream vans are not ostentatious and will not cut corners. Cream is frequently a tenporary solution to a temporary problem. Cream vans are not "scene" vans. They are prosaic.
Car Hire Northwest can always spot a grey driver. He is not into hiring cars at all, he is into saving money. But sometimes even Mr Grey is forced to hire a vehicle. Car Hire Northwest will usually direct the grey driver to the cheapest deal. They know he could be sight seeing with his girlfriend and will not want to overdo it. He could even be on a job interview, as he looks well turned out, in fact he rarely has a hair out of place, if he has hair that is. The grey driver's weekend was planned three months in advance. The hire was placed a month in advance. Mr Grey is Mr Sensible. He will never leave Kleenex, empty coke cans or remains of picnic lunches in his car. He will probably have a compact portable carpet cleaner to make sure the vehicle is returned pristine. He wants to make sure he gets his deposit back. The only time you will see Mr Grey frothing at the mouth, and having an hysterical fit, is when a scratch on the vehicle is discovered and his deposit is withheld!.
The folks at car hire Aetherton are a friendly lot. They used to hirie out all colours. Black for bounders, reds for extroverts, green for the jealous/eco friendly. Whiite for purists, pink for "wackos", blue for the sensible, grey for mad grannies, and yellow for, well yellows. They know the personality types, and the risks entailed, so therefore have kept the choice sensibly blue, wine, black and white - reds on occasions, yellows rarely and pinks never. It is such fun to see the clients walk through the door, the Messrs Greys and Cream Contingents will tend to make friends as they chat at the counter. The Blue crowd will walk in with their happy families in tow. For whatever reason, business or holidays, the hire companies seek to meet their customers' tastes "full on", that is of course if they are reasonable and their clients not looking for a" pot of gold at the end of the proverbial rainbow!"!
