To think that people who choose to drive a sports car are...

[AgentZigzag]

...just big ol' attention seekers.

'Ooo ooo look at meeee - NO! You must look '

Not that I think there's anything wrong with seeking attention if you need it

yes yes

i have a two seater convertable, total attention seeking

who wants to be a wall flower in a ford focus?

Well custardo I have a ford ummmm thing. Its very reliable and works all of the time just like my dp

I'm making virtual friends here, aren't I?

Oh I am perky Howling (you actually did write zaggy and not saggy), but hey, thanks for encouraging thoughts about my possible sagginess...

my car is reliable. most come with warrenties when you buy then these days -

so i am afraid reliable isn't a factor that should be measured

i mean if reliable is what your after - your talking VW diesels - they go forever

no-one would choose a ford fuckugly for aesthetic purposes!

so you have a car that works and thats all good

but if you coudl choose a car - for you - just you, it doesn't have to have a dh, it doesn't have to have a kids seat

you don't have to think about baby sick on teh seats

if you could choose a car just for you

would it really be a family 4 door fuck ugly boring blue/grey hatchback ford parent car?

no

I'd quite like a Trabant, being lumpenproletariat.

Or an Isetta bubble car - my parents started their married life in one of those. It had one spark plug that had to be removed regularly and wiped on a cloth.

Two weeks ago I bid a tearful farewell to my beautiful RX8. After 10 years of driving the family tank, I was able buy something that made me smile as soon as the ignition key went in. I was no longer a middle aged mum but a force to be reckoned with. It was such fun to drive that I could ramble on like Jeremy Clarkson but the recession did for me. Although not expensive to buy,in the sceme of things, this baby cost a fortune in petrol and road tax so hubby pulled the plug. Some spotty 20 year old who lives not 5 minutes away is driving my beloved and I am about to take delivery of my Mini Clubman. BOLLOCKS!!!!!!!!!
