If I were a car, I'd want to be an oldie with all that lovely polished chrome.. I dont care what make, nor what color, just lots of shiny chrome...

Not like the plastic cars that are around now... cor, one tiny bump and the car just squishes itself...

I know they are made to squish, as its safer apparently, the logic being, that the old cars with chrome didn't dent the car as much, but hurt the people more... or so I was told by a mechanic...

If i was a car i think i would be a farmers farm ute or on the way to the scrap yard, with screws and wire holding me together, a motor thats had a bit of repair work done, a half blocked air cleaner from smokeing and tyers that dont make it past walking speed I need a wheel aligment badly and thats b4 you start on all the dented panels and subframe breakages... laugh

serene56: If I was a car, I'd be a convertible.

I'd be dark in colour and have tinted windows, for those days when I just want to be left alone

But for those wild happy fancy free days, my top would come down and the wind would blow and go rushing through me, and I would drive for miles and park myself by the ocean, the sun sparkling on the water, and shining on me
And pick all the bugs out of my hair laugh

Kristia49: If my body was a car i would trade it in 4 a new model. I've got bumps,dents and scratches.My headlights are out of focus and hard to see things up close. It takes me hrs to get to my maximum speed. My fuel rate burns slow but HERE"S the worst of it----- almost everytime i sneeze, cough or splutter... either my radiator leaks or my exhaust backfires.


If my body were a car, I would make sure I am serviced regularly and only by the best.batting.... Someone I can trust and who comes with recommendations as a genuine down to earth mechanic, without the airs and graces of pretentious car dealerships. The latter promise you the world but their real intent is to turn you into a wreck, then go fleece the next victim!

I think all of cars is probably what I am. The Peugeot is red and sporty (wannabe), the Discovery is great for all occasions (can do the speed, great for everyday use, goes anywhere) and the old Land Rover (just keeps on going).

Sounds like the perfect car...Unashamedly stylish, loads of practicality and the reliability of a Swiss watch.

cheers
