The Skoda is brilliant, but it's a means to an end.

My most favourite car was my Isuzu Trooper. I could indulge in road rage to my heart's content as I had the bull bars on the front as well.

Other than that I'm not fussed on my cars!

That's what I need - it's difficult to look threatening in a Ford Fiesta!

If money was no object I'd have an Aston Martin...

I have never been bothered about cars...as long as they get me from A to B....which with our luck with cars is asking a lot!

Nooooo!

If money was no object? Hmmm....1966 Shelby Mustang GT500,Or the modern day equivalent - absolute perfection on wheels.

Confirmed petrol heads in the rainbow household...hubby used to have a car he drag raced at Santa Pod until our financial situation forced us to sell her. [:(]

It always used to be a Porsche - it even had the reg number I wanted. JAN5!

I'm afraid I'm not into classic cars at all - nice and modern me!

I'll stick with my personalised plate as well - both our initials!

Me too - I like the comfort of modern cars!

I keep telling Dave to start saving to send me on a driving day for my 40th birthday - he's got 6 years to go so no excuse there!

A mustang isn't about comfort, but speed & power!

As I'll only ever be able to afford one car I'll got for comfort, and the newest I can afford! I've never seen the point of having a high performance car really as you can't drive them properly on the roads.

I know I'll never have a big, fast car and I certainly wouldn't be wanting a gas guzzler with petrol being the price it is!

I'll stick with comfort, a few whistles and bells, fuel enconomy and no points on my licence!

Same here! I begrudge putting petrol in mine, so if I had something that drunk petrol I'd begrudge it even more!
