Pulling the thread back on track.....
2012 Insignia Elite 2.8T V6 4x4.
It says I'm not a badge snob.
It says I appreciate something that's more road-worthy than the current trend for stiffly-sprung-suspension and rubberband tyres.
It says I don't feel the need to be seen in a new car all the time.
It says I like to have a fairly quick car but be able to blend in and be left alone to get on with my business without people wanting to race me (something which sporty-looking cars attract).
Overall, it probably says I don't belong here because from what I read on here it's got the wrong badge, it's too understated, too quiet, too slow, too expensive to run and too old.

I’ve been told that it makes me a hairdresser, ‘flash’ and a little bit sad but I like to think that it shows that I just want to have a car in my early 20s that isn’t a Corsa/Fiesta or other nondescript hatchback
i've had and still have better cars than the 5, but such bang per buck is hard to beat. be happy, you have wisdom others don't.

Immaculate 2005 S60, in grey, with cream leather.
"Pensioner, with lots of time to clean it."
I like having a car that doesn't actually fit my personality or stand out sometimes. It never attracts too much attention.
I've always liked the S60- great, relaxing drive (D5) or the rare , pokey 4.4 V8-would like to try that!"Pensioner, with lots of time to clean it."

Completely different from my car that likes to be driven hard ( Z4 Coupe with suspension mods) , so would like the S60 for chilled out, anonymous driving!

Your incredibly dull and boorish reply says far more about you.
Oh, and if you are going to be pedantic about grammar, you should start your sentences with a capital letter, smart arse.
At the risk of winding you up even more, it's " you're ", not "your". HTH.Oh, and if you are going to be pedantic about grammar, you should start your sentences with a capital letter, smart arse.

Memo to self - finish reading the sentence before getting on high horse
My car says I’m better than you and I know all cars are inferior. ALL CARS!! I’m allowed to drive like a t
t and I use product in my hair. I look at my reflection when I pass a shop window to see how damn good I look and I DO NOT have issues about my genital size.
Hi my names Andy and I drive an Audi. PS... anyone got a spare penis pump?
