of your 'pride and joys?' Don't think my girlfriend agrees with my nova tbh, yet she loves my vectra. Some people dont see the sense, or is it me that don't lol?

My car is my one and only true love, She understands me and doesn't mind a bit of rough play, I love my Anna <3, My ex on the other hand didn't feel the same way, Now she knows what comes first in my life.

Mines gets very scared in mine and keep pulling the handle off. She starts reaching for it at 30mph i don't drive badly or try to scare her.

Ok it's not a nova, but

my mrs don't mind.

Bearing in mind I'm 30 and she has been around me fiddling with cars for 12 years when I had nova's. She kind of understands. Hates it when I spend spend a weekend cleaning it but doesn't mind when I spend a day cleaning hers, and she does need convincing/expainination when I do things to it.
My best move was taking her to a track day and letting her have few sessions, she now relises what that the car is capable of, which helps when having fun on the road.

Typical woman I suppose. They will never understand mans fascination with a car.

The Beast has no opinon. I let her drive it once and she didn't go above 10mph. So I sent her off again to go faster and when she put her foot down she slid back in the seat and her feet came off of the pedals (She is shorter than me)lol Bless. I hope to get her out on track in it as a passenger soon.
