Mine drives a 330i with all the goodies, god knows why - Top spec in car entertainment, turned off because she doesn't like music while she is driving. Air con / climate control, turned off because it gets too cold. In seat bum warmers, not used cos her bum gets too hot.

Could have saved a fortune at the dealers if she hadn't had them included in the spec when she ordered the car.

Typical woman, when i'm in the car with the missus we don't have the stereo on because she 'wants to talk', so we sit there in silence......well they do say it's golden.

Mine drives a people carrier other than today as the rad's blown. I got a bus to the station this morning, she came to pick me up. In a six gear car we got 3 miles into a 4 mile journey home before I decided to ask her what was wrong with 4th gear and did she realise these things had a turbo (I've just realised she might have been doing her thing to conserve fuel in these trouble times )

She's got the car again on Thursday. She can pay the freakin' excess if required whilst racing that milkfloat.

A 96 Nissan Primera 1.6 which is a lifesaver, the dogs ain't going on my leather and there is absolutely no way I'm doing a tip run in mine. Ecomonical and seems to have magical properties come MOT time, abused but never failed!

'04 Freelander station wagon. Not as bad as I thought, until the exhaust manifold cracked at 12,000 miles. Dealer said we were lucky as it could have melted the under bonnet plastic, and caught fire! Nice! She also managed to back it into a concrete post in a multi-storey. (£100 for new light and lamp gaurds!!)

Also got the use of my daily hack, and '05 VW Touran TDi 7 seater.

Scooby, 2000 classic with PPP, TSL suspension and a few other goodies (mainly cosmetic). Had it on Scooby Clinic rolling road yesterday, will put some figures up.
