Ok guys and girls, as the hading says... describe yourself as a car.
I like to think I would be something between a VW beetle (fun to drive) and possibly a well looked after Mondeo (up to date, not too many miles ok the clock)
So join in guys n girls.... what car (s) are you? |

As much as I'd like to imagine that I would be something exclusive and fancy... I reckon I'm more of an everyday reliable runaround. But has a bit of poke when needed. Maybe a VW Golf |

Like an old companion you've known for years. Bit tatty around the edges, could do with a few upgrades, but jump in and it's cosy, familiar and comfortable.. . ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |

Mark 1 Skoda Fabia VRS
I used to own one for 4 years.
Practical, reliable, useful and average looking. Will always be there. Most will pass it by. Most wouldn't look twice at it but it's only the people that know the car (and me) really well that know it's amazingly awesome. They know what is underneath. They also know all the torque it has; it will pull HARD when required!
Definitely a HOT hatch as Top Gear once reviewed against a Mini in 2004! ![](/icons/s/razz.gif) |

"Mustang- nice to look at, sexy to drive, high maintenance "
Mustangs aren’t high maintenance though. That’s part of the appeal of Detroit iron!
I bet you perform like you are powered by a big block V8 though so I’ll let you off lol. |

For me its the car i still own which an escort rs turbo cus its lightweight, curvy, plenty to give if tweaked correctly and prone to be very temperamental if tweaked badly |

Bit of an old banger;
Looks ok from a distance, bit rough close up.
Takes a while to get going on a cold morning.
Body work is ok with no bits missing, but the subframe needs attention.
Engine still ticking over, but prone to overheating.
No major leaks, but tends to use lots of fluid.

"I’m loving the descriptions of the cars and the person
I’m not a transit minibus anymore haha
What are you now ? "
A reliable old banger . Gets you to where you want to go still, a bit quicker if needed... |

James bond's Lotus Esprit S1.
Not bad looking for a relic born in the 70's
More than meets the eye, with a few tricks up my sleeve.
Impresses ladies by firing torpedoes (ok not that bit) and taking out a chopper.
Needs a bit of TLC and regular servicing but otherwise van be rewarding and a lot of fun.

Mustangs are one of the top 10 most expensive cars to maintain over time. That screams high maintenance to me![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

Ford Anglia - Quirky, full of character and instantly recognizable.
Simple, reliable, old as fook, a bit on the heavy side and can be hard to handle - but full of 'go' in the right hands. |
