Anything from dinky or corgi for me

 

I used to work with a lad called Scott who was very patriotic.
Always bought British if he could.
He exchanged his Ford Mondeo for a Vauxhall Vectra.
One time in the factory canteen he mentioned it.
I said to him, "Scott, you do realise that Vauxhall is an American company don't you?"
"Is it?"
"Yeah, it's owned by General Motors who also build Cadilacs, Plymouths & Dodges."
"Really?"
"Yeah, I wouldn't **** you about this stuff."
"**** me, that's ****!".
"Yeah I know mate."
"Well what about my last car?"
"A Ford mate, American again."
"FFS, is it impossible to get a British car these days?"
"Nearest you'll get now mate is a Nissan."
Lol.

 

Matchbox were good until Hotwheels came along

I've no real interest in cars as long as they are reliable and get me from A to B
In my experience it's Nissan Seat and Suzuki -I've had problems with Fords but many like them.
BUT my first car was an old lime green Hillman Imp - majestic indeed ....but not too reliable -

 

Where've you been

 

Day Care

 

I adored Fords as a young un, and always will. Then I adored VW. Well Golfs. GTIs, had 7, plus a VR6.

Fell into being a BMW ****er 8 year back, and will never have anything else. Had an Audi for 5 weeks and I swear it was like having a ****ing skip on wheels after a big engine RWD.

Just had a new one, 430M and **** me I would have its babies if it was possible, it's flawless. Had 2 M3s and this is a better car.

My lass has a 330 coupe also. We are pure ****ers but we give no ****s haha

 

I love Dacias, Kias and the Honda Jazz

 

Heroic.

 

bloke in our street had a bubble car
thought it was mint

 

I'm at their production plant today. Will see if I can snaffle you one

 

That's what I like about this place!

Now don't let me down Nordic.

 

Just been getting a walk through their new shed and shown their collection in the back. Some amazing e-types, all being lovingly restored. One old Jag in there valued at 7mill so security pretty tight and nee photos allowed. They had a souped-up, armour plated old school defender which appealed to the rustic in me. Nobody is ****ing with you in that thing. Soz pal, but nee gifts today

 

I have no love or affection for any particular car maker at all and buy cars as a means of getting from A to B in the cheapest and most environmentally friendly way I can..

 

Bus

 

sometimes, but more often my bike.. We do own two cars.. A Nissan Micra and a Hyundai i10 which are both excellent on fuel consumption.

 

Jaguar a bringing a new model out very soon. A mid range version between an Evoque and the Sport. Think the F-Pace looks decent as well.

 

I can't drive anymore so I really don't care.
