Ahem, OH had a Subaru until last year...

[NoMercy]

None. There is no such thing as a mid-life crisis. It's just men realising that they want to get rid of the horrendous piece of automotive drudgery that they were forced to buy; and re-fall in love with the pleasure and enjoyment of pure driving.

Going from a Nissan Juke to a Nissan 370Z is not a crisis, its a revelation!

Bob
PS I'm gonna get that Camaro one day!!!!!!!!!

[cazzz1975]

I always think of a mini as a girls car

[bednobs]

"any 2-seater"
except a smart car of course

[joeluke]

Agree with cazzz, any man driving a mini is a girl

[sara3]

lol.. shall I just duck out now?

cazzz, it is.. so is a Beetle. my daughter calls them "cartoon cars" :o)

[cazzz1975]

besides, have you seen where the speedo is in the mini, a massive dial in the middle of the dash, yet the rev counter is directly in front of you...barmy!

[joeluke]

Some men buy flash cars to make themselves feel better due to their lacking in other things, such as labido, hair, looks, personality etc

[NoMercy]

Unless, Joe, he's borrowed his missus car because his is off the road whilst he get a new turbo fitted/engine remapping/<insert other blokey thing here>

[cazzz1975]

yep, beetles, 2cv's. mini's, they are like little handbags, about as masculine as a lipstick.

[joeluke]

Your mini in for it's annual service is it bob?

[NoMercy]

And others Joe, buy flash cars because they love cars. They enjoy the driving experience, they love the sound of a meaty V8, they enjoy testing themselves, and they also like the asthetic appeal.

[ummmm]

Some men buy flash cars because they can afford to...

[joeluke]

.....and others bob have a life

[NoMercy]

"It's" does not require an apostrophe, Joe.

NoM.
