How much of a car nut are you? Test it now with the patent'd pwig scale!

1. I really hate cars, Im a guardian reading, tree hugging, lentil munching hippy.

2. I hate cars, but there good for very nessercery jouneys, I can be found looking at the back of the shelfs in supermarket for a date one day longer than the ones at the front

3. I dislike cars, they pollute, I drive a Seat Arosa Diesel. I like cheese.

4. I just dont care, but if I see a nice car I will look at it, but I would still rather take the bus.

5. I think cars are ok, but I compeletely ignorant about the merits of Lift off oversteer.

6. I quite like cars, but I wouldn't put myself out to buy one, Id rather drive than take the bus, Im a new Labour kinda voter.

7. I enjoy cars, I will watch the odd car program if its on, I would save up a bit of money to buy a nice car. I know a bit about the merits of Lift off Oversteer, but I have the driving talent of Michael Winner.

8. I really like cars, I make a point to watch car Programs. The fastest car I can afford I will buy, but I wouldn't put myself out to get one I couldn't. I can be found posting occasionally on Internet car forums. I have a social life.

9. Im a car nut, I post often on internet car forums, I watch Top Gear and read EVO magazine, I experiment Lift off oversteer, but im not very good at it. I enjoy fast driving, but I hate IDS.

10. Im a car bore, I can often be found rabbiting on about the Merits of Lift off oversteer to my Gran, who cant even Drive. I buy every car Mag in the newsagents, I tape every car program on TV. I like IDS, I dont have a social life at all, and spend all my waking hour on Internet car forums. I will do without new clothes for 5 years to buy the car I want. I smell of Cheese, and dont have any friends at all.


So where do you rank on the Scale?

hmmm about 9.99999999999 - I hope I don't smell of cheese, although I did catch myself trying to explain how a high lift cam works to the g/f the other day!

11. I wish I had the time to read car magazines, but every hour not at work is spent either asleep or in the garage under the car (sometimes both) I only post on internet car forums when I'm at work. I've spent thousands of pounds on suspension components to minimise the lift off oversteer to which has shaved nearly 0.1 seconds off my average lap time (my Gran works the stop watch) I make new clothes from old polishing rags that aren't good enough to use on the car any more.
