Ford focus cabroilet
Vauxhall Tigra
Toyota Aygo
Ford Ka (sport Ka too)
Nissan Micra convertable
Ford Puma.
Any new Mini. Hairdressers car. And totally clitoris.
Range Rover Sport. No one should drive one of these. It means you are a DRUG DEALER!!!!!!!!!!! :eek
Its better to ask a stupid question than make a stupid mistake.
shit. I have driven 4 of hte cars mentioned so far. None of them were mine, and 3 belonged to female friends, but I;m worried those details don't matter - do I need to go and kill myself?
Daihatsu Copen.
Porsche Cayenne.
Mini 4x4.
Can't think of any other's that haven't already been mentioned. . . . . .
How about a Fiat Panda ok or not ???
You forgot the Street Ka, the Ka is bad enough but a convertible !!
2cv
Another ex-Fazer rider that is a foccer again
Good thing I dont worry about "street cred" as I drive a Fiat Panda-basically the thinking mans version of the 500c and about £3K cheaper!
Cheap to insure-even in city, £30 road tax, 60mpg on motorway with good headroom-so good in fact that Fiat had to spoil it by bringing out a new version thats larger & a lot dearer. The money I save on running this pays for my fun-time on the Fazer.
Interesting theme though as I often wonder what motivates people to buy certain cars-Image? Ego? Fear? Self-worth? There are definitely stereotypes.
Observation in Birmingham:-the number of Mums on the school run driving massive 4 x 4s when they cant see over the dash & have to have radar type reversing aids. I wonder how bike riders are perceived by motorists-when I rode my friends YBR 125 on L-plates I was amazed how I was treated with contempt as the cagers desperately tried to overtake me when I was "making progress" @ the speed limit for the roads I was using. Funny this doesnt happen when theyre looking @ a fat rear tyre & sports can!
Fiat Panda's are fine. They're good, honest cars and because they don't have fake plastic flowers on the dash, they aren't driven by bimbos!
Any modern 4*4's because they are all shit.
Only difference betwean a 4*4 and a turd is that a turd is hard to polish !
i don't like them !

i don't like them ! 4*4's need a sticker saying "Does my dick look big in this" when the answer is usually "no you just look a dick in it" (Unless of course you happen to tow big trailers or live up a glacier)
If not bike it's usually a tatty skoda fabia diesel, it's the Mrs's car. (can still do cambridge to holyhead in 3.5 hours, alledgedly...)

Fiat Panda diesel cheap to buy ( £6500new)cheap to run 60000miles so far maintenance now’t but oil, tyres an brake pads ,actually more reliable than me Fazer :eek .
That lets me have a Fazer for wizzing off on trips to Europe ,a TL1000r for arsing about on and track days, lots of beer an holidays and work part time :woot .
Buger this having a posh car lark £13500 for a basic Ford Fucus £0 deposit an £99 a month for rest of yer life, to park it on dive an polish it no thanks .
Pandas are the mans car , especiallythe man with motor bikes to run an pay for .
The SSangyong Odious :eek [size=78%] - infact no-one should ever be seen driving one, looks like it was designed by the Health Service (may be available on prescription?........)[/size]
'Still lazy, after all these years'.
I used to love cars, and I dreamt of having nice fast car one day.
My mate (VFR Rider) said, if you wanna go fast, get a bike. Since having a bike, I really REALLY appreciate, good honest, practical cars, since I get all my thrills from riding.
Keep your fancy cars (that I am still faster than anyway), give me my practical Focus anyday!! (After the Fazer of course) :lol

Yup....ditto!
I used to always want the fastest car possible and I enjoy accelaration. As soon as I got a bike they became irrelevant and I actually enjoy just cruising in eco mode whilst driving now as I get my kicks from riding. I've driven a Ferrari F430 in anger on a track and although impressive, it's still not the same pull as my FZ1

I can see what your saying but you can get the same from a Ford fiesta, and still maintain some level of credibility :rollin
