wondering what the concensus is on % male/female ownwership/drivership of CV8/VXR/HSV in UK??? Am I being too stereotypical to assume 95% drivers of these cars are blokes?

Question pondered when I spotted a blu/grey 04 CV8 (sorry it was early AM & not quite light) last week entering the M4 East bound from the A34 - pilot was of the fairer sex - business exec type - 30-40ish?
Curious that's all
(In Oz I'd reckon the ratio is 85/15 male/female)

In my old Corvette days, a fellow female owner and I went the the Corvette Nationals and she took her hubby with her...she was driving of course, it was her car.

On the gate, the attendant leant over the the hubby and said, "Letting the wife drive today"...the attendant was a VERY lucky man that day....

Nope, just bung a local student a few quid and he will swear he was driving

Not that I would endorse this approach

IN the interest of fairer sex, I let the missus drive the car when she is good!

Perverting the course of justice, an offence at common law, is triable on indictment only, carrying a maximum
sentence of life imprisonment (however, no sentence above 10 years has been passed in the last century for this offence)......

The cops are hotting up on this one..... Just make sure the student hasn't admitted to 60 other speeding fines, in separate areas of the country on the same day before you!

My wife prefers her 206. The women at work think its anything between a blokes car to crap (too fast) to hairdressers car. Blokes at work like it but mixed on the colour.

Hate to say it but its a mans car.
