Prehaps he was a treehugger or a member of “Greenpeace”&didn’t like you doing wheelies in a 3litre Granny think of the greenhouse gases more like another thick wanabe big haulage boss !( you’ve had a lucky escape out of there) 
BTW didn’t mean it about the wheelies the guy was a total ■■■■ there are decent boss’s out there just keep looking
i would of given him keys and told him u drive/reverse it without wheels spinning
ajt:
BTW Gumtree ? Is this quite a normal way to advertise a job these days?
I don’t trust jobs advertised on Gumtree. A bit like advertising in the cornershop window.
Sumo, you had a result there I reckon, it would only be a matter of time before you had a similar conversation while at work, then you would’ve had to bite your tongue or tell him to poke it 
I had a similar situation a few years ago, I went for a job at George Hector doing Greece, while I was waiting in reception I could hear it all going off in the office next door, the bloke was screaming down the phone at a driver who was having trouble getting a boat back to Italy, he did everything but tell him they were having fisticuffs when he got back to the yard. Then this little 5’ nothing scroat came out of the office dripping in Argos gold and introduced himself as the boss 
Needless to say, I never started there I did give him my reasons, something along the lines of ‘If you spoke to me like that your lorry would be sold in Greece and you’d be getting a right hander upon my return to the UK’ The div then told me I wouldn’t have got the job anyway and banned me from his yard
So you were wheelspinning a 3.0 Granada in his car park.
Who do you think you are, The Sweeney?
Ken.

Probably just as well seeing as he got busted
Sounds like you’ve got too much style to be working there anyway…
Old skool 3.0 Auto Granada… Hell yeah!!!
The 2.8 fuel injected version had some ooommmpphhh though!!!
Oh ■■■■, I must be getting old!!

I’m going to be very pedantic here and point out that the Sweeney didn’t drive a Ford Granada. 
they did drive a mk1 Granada briefly in a few episodes. But the most famous car is NHK295M which is a Consul GT
It was a
‘Copper Brown’ Mk1 Ford Consul GT
NHK 295M *
Series 1 & 2, 6 episodes of series 3 and the Series 1, 2, & 3 titles
The only Sweeney car known to have survived and currently undergoing restoration
LOL!!! I would have laughed in his face, then popped a reverse 180 and wheel spun back out the yard
