What cars do you have to own to qualify as a petrol head ?
Discussion
None. If you love cars, you can be one. As a youngster I'd know specs of pretty much everything on the road. I LOVED cars but was years away from driving. Why would that exclude anyone?
What about boats? With twin V8s?
Planes?
Since TG said you'd have to own an Alfa, I've heard about this phrase a lot and I think it's nonsense.. but that's just me. I know plenty of people who cannot afford to own anything that'd "qualify" but go to every Festival of Speed or Breakfast club...

This. Some of the most enjoyable drives I've ever had were in a Nissan Sunny, so actual choice of car is somewhat irrelevantWhat about boats? With twin V8s?

I owned an Alfa in my "yoof" if one car of all the ones I've owned could of put me off them for life, this was it.
So this "only a petrol head if you own an Alfa" comment in my opinion is b

My mate's little boy is 8 years old and a complete petrol head and he's never owned a car, so owning cars means nothing if you ask me

some of the answers belong in the 'Things that make you think knob' thread....

You dont 'qualify' to be a PH, its not about possesion or status or wealth or one brand over another
nor its it about vehicles that perform above a certain benckmark.
You dont need a license
you can be any sex,
any age
it doesnt matter.
Its a state of mind.
its the ability to look at a car n go "wooaaarrgg".
be that out loud if your 8 years whilst pointing out said car to your mates/mum or inside your own head if you are so inclined.
To be able to close your eyes and dream of driving to experiance a small ammout of joy.
You dont even have to know what car you want to be in, just that you want to drive.
This to me is a PH
NB. replace driving with riding at any point above, its all the same afliction.
I have spoken.
