Thinking about a few of my friends and how they vote Vs. the cars they drive...


Labour - 2005 Renault Scenic
Labour - 2010 Ford C max
Conservative - 2014 BMW 1 series
Labour - 2003 SLK 230
Labour - 2005 Honda Civic
Conservative - 2015 Vauxhall Meriva
UKIP - 1994 Peugeot 205 diesel
Conservative - 2013 Jag
Conservative - 2014 Mercedes
Labour - 2005 Jeep Cherokee

So who do you vote for and what car do you drive?

From your figures
Car newer than 2011 = tory
Car 2000-2011 = Labour
Old school 1994 car - things in this country ain't what they used to be = UKIP

Two BMWs, even late 90s ones, probably tallies pretty well with a Conservative vote.

Mk 1 Focus Estate - Lib Dem.

Maybe it would fit the stereotype more if I had a national trust membership sticker in the windscreen.

I think it's more of a labour car really.

I would guess that anything fast or interesting would likely suggest a Tory/UKIP voter, MPVs would suggest labour. Bland boxes probably swing from Tory to Labour as their age increases.

Myself:
2007 Audi A6 4.2FSI, 1992 Landcruiser HDJ80 4.2td, wavering between Tory/UKIP.

saw a battered mitsubishi (or however you spell it !!!) with all its animal and warrier logos, dragging an equally knackered A shaped massive trailer, promoting george galloway and the respect party.

quite surprised in that area of Bradford it wasn't a white Audi Q7 or a white Range Rover sport and they were also doing a few deals on the way to multitask.
