I am not a petrol head; however I do appreciate a finely tuned engine, a nice leather Interior and a good sound system.

I guess my other half would like it if I swapped watching Made in Chelsea for Pistonheads; he is a regular on here so I decided to see what it’s all about.

I drive a Golf; good solid and reliable. No tacky pink fluffy steering wheel cover and tidy inside; there is no excuse for scruffiness!

The fastest car I have been in is my other half’s M3, I don’t know much about cars but the engine sounds good and it remembers my seat settings.

I once changed a flat tyre, in the rain, impressed?

If I won the lottery I would buy an Aston DB9 (for style) and a convertible Ferrari California (for speed) I guess I will divide opinion here, and no doubt cause upset amongst you die hard Lamborghini or Porsche fans

I love my Golf, but maybe its time for a change, any suggestions?

This is not my Ferrari, I wish it was

What is is with girls and Aston Martins? My OH would have one too, though she prefers the Vantage.

Hello and welcome. I take it, as your OH is on here, you are expecting this to go the way it will *reaches for popcorn g.i.f.*

You are quite right, the Vantage just looks ACE!!!!



Or were you meaning the equally good looking older one?

My OH just prefers smaller cars, that's all!

As for the Aston Martin thing... She says they are understated and smart whereas Porsches are 'posey' while Ferraris and Lamborghinis are too attention seeking. I'd still have a Ferrari myself though!

twing, I joked with my OH that I would post on here, hmmm I wonder what he will say?

He loves his projects, admire it really, I didnt know what the engineer management light was until he told me. I also caused my first car to blow up, whoops!

fking hell, I couldn't choose between those two, all newer Astons just look cheap and mass produced compared.
