So she drove you home from the pub then?

Probably best to have a drink to settle your nerves!

You must have had a few pints if you agreed to her driving! You're either very brave or crazy?!

Hi all,

Mrs Boggy drive's our car all the time, (well she does own half of it) she's very good, a bit heavy on the breaks and doesn't hold it in gear log enough but all the same a careful driver, she's the only other Pearson that I'd let drive it thou ! No full Comp Insurance for our car No drive ! It never cesses to amaze me when people keep saying give me a go, I say sure go and get FCI for this car in your name and give me £500 in my hand and it's yours for the day I'd had no taker's

My wife has excellent clutch control but terrible spacial awareness - cannot reverse for sh** and always curbs the wheels! Still, she's into cars as much as me - prefers looks on a car than how it corners etc but hey she's female (that's a real plus point eh?) - her dream motor is a 911 as featured in Bad Boys 1990...

Bah, you guys must have married the wrong woman. My mum regularly tracks/autcrosses the Porker.

I've managed to scare my woman that much that she has never asked to drive my motor.

I told her that the clutch and the whole car setup is so different to a normal car that she would find it really hard / impossible to drive. Plus the fact that there is no power steering so you need Arms like Arnie to corner it.

If you were to listen to me you would think I own a F1 car. Needless to say if she ever did have a go she would realise that it's not much different to drive than hers!

Just to make something clear the LAW is you can drive her car, but she can never drive yours. Unless it's a hot sunny day and you have been in the beer garden all afternoon drinking stella then and only then is she allowed to make the short trip home.
