What is car boot?

When someone crashes their car, usually involves rolling it, and all the contents fly out of the now broken windows, usually leaving a trail of destruction and obsolete car parts.

Man 1 pointing down a hill "Dude, check that car boot sale out! Bet that hurt!!"

Man 2 "And I bet I know exactly how much all that is going to cost me ... free! Grab a bin bag!"

Man 1 "Awesome! Check it out, a slightly scratched copy of limp bizkit's greatest hits! Win!! Oh, and an arm..."

Car boot - what is it?

Haggling in an effort to purchase an item for a lower value than the advertised price, despite the fact that the item is already significantly below market value. This type of practice typically occurs at car-boot-sales, and can be rather embarrassing.

Buyer - "how much for that classic Ming Vase"
Seller - "£1"
Buyer - "Oh, really, is it? Hmmm...I'll give you 98p"
Seller - "Fuck off"
Buyer - "I'm sorry. I suffer from Car Boot Syndrome. I don't mean to be a twat"
