I think it's good to generalise, especially when matching cars with their owners. A few thoughts:

1) 15yr old 7 series with blacked out windows: Drug dealer (obviously)

2) Old shape gold Micra: Old person (who drives slow)

3) Pimped up Vauxhall Nova: Young male (whose insurance is more than Halfords share price)

4) Pinked up Vauxhall Nova (which, apparently, runs on fairly dust): Young female

5) Any large Hyundai with a tow bar: Someone who thinks they are sensible and who relentless talks about their latest bargain.

6) Cadillac (as above)

7) Any Lexus: Boring person, probably works in IT

8) Ford Mondeo: Rep

9) MG: Drinks real ale and has an oily rag in his garage

10) R reg Suburu: Has an ASBO

Mondeos as reps' cars? I thought they all had A4s now...

And there aren't any pimped/pinked up Novas left.

I'd check your internet connection because there seems to be an 8-year posting delay.
