What car do you drive and what is your dream car?
Would you or have you ever judged someone on the car they drive?
I drive a Fiat Punto and my dream car is an Alfa Romeo 8c |

I drive a German saloon car - pretty run of the mill, but it's reliable, economical and comfortable.
There are lots of cars that I'd like to own, but top of my shopping list when I win the lottery is an E Type Jaguar. |

"I always loved the 350z and now I drive one. Not sure what would be next. Cobra with working roof maybe."
My absolute all time favourite car is the Datsun Z . I was lucky that when I was in my late teens a group of friends had several. One even had a super samurai. |

Possibly the most beautiful car ever  |

One that gets me from A to B and breaks down minimally.
Judging someone on a car makes you a bit of a c**t. |

Ford Focus. Serves me well. Dream car? Aston Martin Vantage before the Merc engine and 'face lift'. I'd upgrade to twin-plate clutch and light-weight fly wheel, sport cats/exhaust manifolds, better dampers. |

"Dream car. TVR Cerbera Speed Twelve for its sheer ridiculousness.
Actual car. Land Rover Defender LWB Station Wagon."
TVR’s were bonkers cars, I can see the appeal though |

I drive a french car. People slag off french cars but I've had it 12 years and biggest job to date was the clutch going earlier this year at around 93K miles.
I'd actually love an Audi A3 but they now have the same reputation as BMW drivers so that's pretty pants. But I'd still like one. I can't afford it though.
Besides that I'm a real petrol head at heart somewhere and I can get quite excited at a good engine and a nice looking. But my god are they an utter waste of money.

My friend's grandad owned one of the original Class B Audi Quattro S1's that won Pikes Peak in the 80s. He used to race it in hill climbs all over the country, and used to tow it to meets in another Audi Quattro
I drive a Mazda CX-5 and my dream car would be some ridiculous, American muscle car, probably! |

My daily is a Mondeo Titanium X Sport (ecoboost) - the most powerful Mondeo Ford ever produced.
My dream car is a 1998 - 2002 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6 in black, so not a million miles away with my 96 Firebird |

I drive a modern Mini Cooper, it’s fun, good handling but needs more power.
Dream car, too many to mention, anything from any number of old Fords to American muscle to exotics. I’ve always had a soft spot for Aston Martin though |

Now drive a Tesla which was my dream car. It has totally ruined internal combustion cars for me, they make a nice noise but aren't fast enough.
Previous car was a Fiesta ST150, that car was so much fun, not fast by modern standards, but a lot of fun even going slowly and very cheap to own.
Any future dream car would have to be some absurd 2nd car rather than a sensible daily driver. A custom built dune buggy or an old 60's Cadillac, or a tank. |

Drive a gen 7 Toyota Celica. Just did 2000 miles on a European road trip and absolutely loved it  . I hope I didn't get caught speeding in any radar traps 
F-50 would be my dream car to own |

Day to day I drive a Skoda Kodiaq, I am currently restoring a Mondeo ST220 and working a few bits on a 1998 Jag XKR.
Dream car is a Ferrari F40, or a McLaren F1, literally can't choose between them. |

Saw a F40 in the flesh a few days when taking my car to the workshop.
Proper machine. |

Currently drive a Mini Cooper S - great fun but seems to break a lot!
Best car I ever owned was a 2001 BMW M5... which now has become my dream car - as in I want another! 400BHP V8, manual 6-speed, and a relatively simple traction control system.
Yeah I'm a car nut  |

My daily driver is a Porsche Taycan GTS, with a 718 Spyder for high days and holidays. That’s being replaced with a 911 S/T, because, manual right? There’s also a fairy generic hybrid car because some days it’s better to blend in.
I’ve a few classics scattered about, and a few others at overseas properties.
I’m fortunate and also a seriously obsessed petrol head. Not everyone shares the passion, not everyone can afford it, and I absolutely don’t judge. I have driven shitters in my time. I know some incredibly high net worth individuals with no interest in cars whatsoever, but show them an expensive wine list and they can’t help themselves…. Horses for courses. |

I drive a focus but looking to get an A class in the next year.
I don't judge people on the car they drive but if I'm dating someone I would prefer if they drove a nice car |

We sold our 911 Turbo last year. Very capable car. An everyday supercar but just lacks the special feeling some of the exotics give. Same with Porsche as a brand tbh. Great cars but Ferrari and Lamborghini do it right. |

I will never part with my F355 spyder. It’s perfect. But as en everyday car the Porsche is far more useable. |

To me all cars are slow. Four wheels ok, 2 wheels better. Besides cars are just mobile chicanes, to bike riders. |

When I am not working I drive a Volvo XC90.
When I am working I drive an A3 Cabriolet S line- fits just fine in the very tight work car park!  it’s been giving me some grief lately though.
Love the Volvo for that. Super comfortable drive. |

I drive my work van everywhere ex took the car and I never bothered to replace. Dream car would be Sierra rs 500, don’t judge on what people drive, for some reason I like seeing lasses driving older rougher cars |

Gave up my car about 5 years ago. Decided that the car was the enemy of old (er) age. I walk everywhere and occasionally rent a car. The kids rarely complain these days! |
