Be as creative as possible, choose a car and come up with a story surrounding that car, for example

Meet Ashley , 27, who is a pop idol contestant and by day cuts the hair of the rich and the famous (well big brother contestants and Shane Ritchie), Ashley loves his mum and enjoys dancing with other like minded men. A keen gym goer Asley likes to keep in shape just in case that special someone should come into his life. Ashley enjoys socialising with a wide circle of freinds who he keeps in touch with via text messaging and picture messaging.

What does Ashley drive ?

Bit obvious the above but I am doing a couple more subtle ones, see if you can come up with some !

Bit too obvious (TT), next ones will be more subtle but you seem to have the point.

Next !

Meet Brian 61, Brian is a leading light at the Golf club, he is married to Jean (57) but yearns for young flesh. Brian enjoys being retired but cant quite manage the way he did financially and has had to hang onto his company car he ran when he was still the Area Manager for the bank back in 98 when he retired from ill health (chronic Piles), he has kept it immaculate but would like the newer model.

Jean still works at the charity shop. Brian sees himself as a sporting but considerate driver and enjoys the V6 engine and leather seats that match quite nicely with his driving gloves. Brian loves to teach those boy racers a thing or two.

Music wise Brian likes marching bands, Roy Orbison and occasionally a bit of pan pipe music when he is in a mellow mood which is often enhanced with a pipe.

Brian and Jean enjoy caravanning holidays in their Eldis 'Maurauder' when they indulge in full english breakfasts cooked lovingly over propane and read the Daily Express cover to cover. Fericely Patritoic they have rarely ventured abroad and wonder why anbody would want to when they have the whole of england to tour in the 'Van'

Despite their advancing years and conservative tastes Brian and Jean are still active and popular members of the S + M and swinging scenes around their home town of Bishops Stortford.

OK here's my attempt

John works doing something technical for a company based in middle england. He lives in a house on an out of town estate, with a shared drive. He's seen his kids go off to school, wife drives a SUV which she uses for the school run. He's fairly interested in keeping fit but likes his beer-oh dear! He always wanted a fast car and now he can afford it has bought something fast that will leave all the reps in their Vectra for dead. He'd probably buy a Porsche but hasn't quit got enough money spare to fork out for one.
What car does this man drive?

Are you sure?

So we are to believe the average Impreza owner has his own home, a wife and kids, and his wifes got an SUV? No way!!

Times move on mate, those people DID own Impreza's.

lol- you are probably right

How about this revised one then:

Kevin lives at home with his mum and dad. When he's not doing his blue collar job he loves nothing better to go out cruisin', listening to some choons on his massive ICE and wearing his baseball cap back to front. No-one can beat his car 'cos he's 'ad it chipped up innit. Girls love his car, in fact he met his last few girlfriends while out cruisin' near the local convenience stores late at night. The only problem with his car is that it costs him half his yearly wage to insure.
