    Hi All,

    fisrt time starting a thread so i dont know if this is going in the right place... big sorry if it isnt. i got this about an hour ago from a friend and i thought it was cool..... have a read and let me know what it says about you guys.... by the way mines Peugeot but i used to be a Renault so compared to that being a Peugeot isnt so bad. you'll see what i mean when you read it :)


    The Car You Drive…

    Alfa
    Passionate and romantic, you fancy yourself. A bit unreliable, and can be eccentric too. You hate BMW drivers, but think and act just like them.





    Audi
    You would like to believe you are part of the new generation that is caring, environmentally conscious and family-orientated. Actually quite boring; nothing more than a glorified wuss. Will one day probably drive a Merc, but you still sometimes wonder if you shouldn't have bought that Bee-Em.


    BMW
    Self-centred, ambitious, dynamic and assertive. Can be a big show-off pig. Likes impressing too. Buppies and kugels past sell-by date. You think you will be CEO one day. Actually an office weenie who thinks you are God's gift.



    Daewoo
    Faceless, subservient and demure (except for Matiz drivers). To you, a good deal is to work from nine to five, get nothing for it, and still say thank you. And then you wonder why you don't have money for a time after hours.


    Fiat
    Cute self-confident girls climbing the corporate ladder with ball-breaking as their hidden agenda. Will take everything you own if she divorces you.


    Ford
    Absolute stud who lives on the edge. A loyal, diligent worker, but baffled by office politics and labour policies. Next car will probably also be a Ford. Detests BMW and Merc drivers.

    Honda
    You aspire to drive a BMW. You are an opinionated pain-in-the-butt. The ultimate suffragette, or the boss's girlfriend (male or female!).



    Isuzu
    You like the smell of diesel and have secret fantasy of being a truck driver.





    Hyundai /Kia
    Quite progressive, intelligent and practical. But misguided. The kind of person who will suggest a sub-committee to find solutions to what the committee couldn't. You will always maintain that a Korean car is better than any Japanese model.
    Jeep
    You would like to believe you are living the American dream and just love the great outdoors. The closest you get to it is by watching Days of Our Lives and the Adventure Channel.


    Land Rover
    You are a designer person with a designer life, who always pays too much for everything. Designer mud comes free with the badge. You're a closet colonial racist and have fantasies about the Queen. If you have a Freelander, it was probably a break-up gift from your ex.

    Mazda
    A Ford driver with less money. Mostly staid boring with no image and less imagination. Lots of retired people drive Mazdas. You're in the way and should get off the road.


    Mercedes-Benz
    Responsible, immaculate and conservative. Boring CEO clones with too much money, or the office super-geek who can't remember what it's like to have fun. Definitely not dating material.



    Nissan
    Good, solid, responsible, loyal office-fodder. You like to travel and maintain that you can sell ice to the Eskimos. Favourite answer: "It's a company car."


    Opel
    Wannabe Schumachers. Would like a VW, but fell for the bumf about German engineering. Always in a rush, but never get anything done. Kicks BMW 3 series butts because they can. Spend all their money on trying to keep it going.


    Pajero
    Not as label-conscious as your Land Rover counterpart, but still suckered into believing in the ultimate Paris-to-Dakar, African adventure. You drive through puddles to create your own designer mud. You believe you've made the grade, but everyone else knows you've got a long way to go.


    Peugeot
    Thinks France is the best country in the world and bores everybody with your limited French knowledge and tales of the Louvre and the Sourbonne.




    Porsche
    Smalldick





    Renault
    An eccentric who likes doing things the wrong way around. Usually the one who asks all the silly questions at staff meetings. You fervently believe you have flair, but it's less than that of a French cookbook. Most probably gay.



    Ssangyong
    A make-believe fool, because you'd like a Pajero but can't afford it. Don't actually know that the engines are made in India and not in Germany



    Toyota
    Although there are thousands of them, you mostly can’t spot them in their zero-image cars. Toyotas are good, reliable cars and are bought by a wide variety of people who have zero personality to go with their cars and are basically chicken-**** scared people who will never take chances and will therefore be driving Toyotas forever.
    The most zero-image car in the world?, ... a green Corolla

    Volkswagen
    Highly overrated for dependability cars since the days of the Beetle, but they do have a good re-sale value. Usually practical, sensible people who like to drive fast where nobody can see them. They are usually loyal to their brand to the point of irritation due to the fact that they lost their virginity on a Beetle's back seat.

    Volvo
    As square and safe as the car

    Citreon - for the cool, suave, sophisticated, poor people of this world.

    not sure if that is entirely accurate, doubt i could kick a bmw's ass in my wee corsa!:rolleyes:

    but its right in the sence that i'm always in a rush...:)

    (happy posting Elera Lady!)

    poor you. ^

    Load of cack tbh...might work in your little circle of office-y types...but not out in the real world.

    Pajero? What about the rest of the mitsubishi range?

    Subaru? I'm sure there's loads of smart comments to be made about the wannabe Petter Solbergs of this world and how crap they are in bed.
    Saab? At least as popular as Alfa Romeo and wide open for abuse about failed jet fighter pilots and other fun generalisations.
    Mini is also a glaring omission.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,660 ✭✭✭Blitzkrieger


    Aye - I don't think you can take it too seriously. I know my car doesn't fit the mould.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 150 ✭✭R-KEANE


    Ford, actually thats how i feel.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,082 ✭✭✭Tobias Greeshman


    Casanova, that's rough man.

    Toyota - OK started out to describe toyota's well and then lost it, I had the piece of s*** for six months and then got rid of it.
    SEAT(Volkswagon) - What's SEAT's version of a BEETLE?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Well, SAAB is not on there so I had to go with Mazda. Both good, reliable cars - just like me :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,892 ✭✭✭Kersh


    Where is Ferrari -- and there is no way my nissans are company cars...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,061 ✭✭✭✭Terry


    no daihatsu.
    i loved my little charade van. it ran on the smell of petrol and was very capable of taking the bumps you get when you're a learner driver.
