      Yes red cars are faster, but they are not "cool". Every idiot knows that!

          4wd because you live in the country, 4wd for towing, or for taking Chardonnay and Tarquin to school?


          Do you need a big boot for carrying things?
          Do you need ground clearance (e.g. for going along dirt tracks)?
          Will you be doing many miles a year?
          Short journeys or long?
          …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

              And you're not a true Petrolhead until you have owned an Alfa.

                Finally, do you own a black pair of stranglers gloves?

                  Leather ones in the car and then long PVC ones for the tidy up.


                  I've also got a shovel.
                  You dig?

                      Need a decent boot - SUV or estate to hold a roll of carpet and bag of lime.
