Best Car to NOT Impress a new girlfriend

[matt3001]

Fiat Multipla

[SuperchargedVR6]

Anything that isn't an Audi, Bini, Fiat 500 or RR Evoque.

[Krikkit]

Surely for a pretty lady it's got to be windiest, noisiest thing - an Atom would be a good one, not only is her hair a mess, but they'll see up her skirt when she gets out!

[DrDeAtH]

Perodua kalista?

[ChrisDB7]

A green Saab 9-5 estate with beige heated cloth seats. A few dents and scrapes too.

When you're 18 ....

Anything track prepared. I speak from experience.

It's noisy, it's bumpy, it's loud, it's chavvy, I'm not comfy, my back hurts, there's no stereo, it looks stupid...

BUT

Bucket seats are great for mis leading a young lady about just how fast you went round that left hander whereas even the best 'sports' seats would have given her a very good idea and you a lot of ear ache

Nissan Bluebird / Primera

This. It is bland looking but reliable and handles very well. Like me.

Too many on here are still thinking like petrol heads.

I know several women who would see a Primera and think 'oh look, a car' then get in.

My vote goes for a 7 of some description.

You can say 'iconic design for 50 years', 'over steer', 'handling' until you are blue in the face.

Non-petrol head Girl will say 'where's the roof', 'its not comfortable' 'I might burn my leg on the exhaust' 'its silly'.

So there we are. Caterham 7. She won't understand, she WILL hate it.

I can vouch for that. My OH never even set foot in the Caterham I used to own. Hated it with a passion.

My parents were distinctly unimpressed when a girl arrived to pick me up in her Marcos and opened the bonnet to fix something before ringing the doorbell.

My wife disliked my VX220.

IME girls like 'posh' cars. Wood, leather, comfy. Oh, and clean.

[ts86net]

The same car as her.

I've found most girls are distinctly unimpressed with this...



Especially when we're on the way to a Michelin starred restaurant. Relentless titty-bounce doesn't help either.

But they normally fall head-over-heels with its occupant...



Cheers,
Effortless.

Ah, A cute Yucky Mucky !! Gets the girls all the time!!

[dabofoppo]

It seems to depend on age group for instance my girlfriend (and all of her mates) hated this car



But every woman I spoke to over the age of 30 loved it.

A rusty Chevette in that terrible pale blue (with rusty bits) is my personal fail-point. The fact that the heater didn't work, the floor leaked and it smelled of mildew really didn't help.

An A8, on the other hand, was an absolute hit. Discreet, rapid, smooth, and with a whiff of powerfully-built director, it impressed in the exact same way that an E60 M5 didn't.

[maxc]

I'll pick you up in my Mercedes....

I ran this for a couple of years in the early 80s - and ended up married to her! (Divorced now).

[rohrl]

By concensus it's anything stripped and caged. Women just love getting into a stickered-up shed by climbing through a roll cage then being shaken about and deafened on the road. Bonus points if the heater matrix has been removed.

[Yiliterate]

Anything - absolutely anything - fitted with a Dukes of Hazzard air-horn.

Quite why, I really couldn't say...

[MagnaJeep]

Not really a car, but i guess an ural sidecar would be worst. Can't wait till mine is ready to run.
Could also imagine picking up people from the airport with it, just to see their reaction.
