If you were a car, what would you be?

[white_goodman]

Perhaps it sounds like a bit of a bizarre question but if you were asked to say provide the voice for a new character in Cars 3, what car would you be? Being completely honest, most of the cars that I have owned are more fun than I am, so I’m not going to go for a Ferrari or Aston Martin or anything like that.

The closest car I have owned to my persona was probably my rusty Mercedes C-Class Estate. Sensible, dependable, easy-going and hard-working but I do have a fun side and don’t hate myself, so would probably plump for one of these.





The Aero and T5 versions obviously.

However, either of the below would probably be more charismatic choices for the big screen.



The mk2 because I'm probably not quite as buff as I should be (hence not the mk1) and probably an 8v rather than a 16v TBH.



Interesting that because I have never owned a Saab, Volvo or mk2 GTi. Maybe I should?

Bizarre idea but I like it!

So I'm small, light, loud, slim, come from an ordinary background with a few grandiose pretensions. I smoke a bit, am generally reliable but can act unpredictably.

AC/Shelby Cobra 289 it is then!

[HustleRussell]

I think I've got a bit in common with my faithful shedbarge BMW E34 touring. No sporting pretensions, not flash or showy, not the latest in technological advancement, likes a drink, but well rounded, a good workhorse, pretty practical- a jack of all trades I suppose. A robust thing which can be relied upon.

You asked?.

[C900]

A Volvo 240. Probably with a carburettor engine.

[Benbay001]

I am simply astonishing.
I would be a Veyron.

[TheTurbonator]

A 944. Made in the eighties, fairly good looking, and relatively fast (I'm a good runner).

I'd have a leaking radiator (I have prostate cancer), a poor power to weight ratio (I need to lose a pound or several), fading paintwork (I'm going grey), suspension that needs replacing (I have arthritis) but was regarded as stylish when it was new (my Mum thought I was a beautiful baby).

I'm quite happy being a restoration project

1990s V6 Mustang?!

Best of luck with the big C, by the way...

I would have said Ferrari Dino.

I should have added that I was made in England by a now defunct manufacturer.

[covmutley]

Golf gti. Ok looking, reliable, follow the masses (school-uni-job-wife-kids) but try to have fun along the way, and a touch of quality. Also, have a got a bit fatter over the years.
