i always admit i drive 1, i dont care what people think its there choice.
I dont rip anyone for the car they drive,actually thats not true-Subaru drivers ARE always known for wearing the "subaru world rally team" jackets.Me and spud just love loling at those who think cos they own a subaru,with a team hat scarf and jacket,that they are in fact,rally drivers!!
Next question, how do you answer this one..?
How much have you spent on it? why dont you just get a new car lol
Dont like talking money, it makes you think too much about the truth !
So far, not including general maintenance etc I think around £1700 in 4 years on 3 cars... so not that bad tbh lol

Not actually post up how much you have spent lol
I hate it, makes me feel stupid for spending it on an old car.
Never not "admitted" to it but had a variety of piss takes over the years. It got better when it stopped being the daily driver and now that I've had it for 13 years people know it's an interest etc
Job interview/business meetings can be interesting. You tend to get an odd reaction, being into cars you often get asked if you've got a weekender....tell them it's a nova and they don't know what to say lol telling them about the engine bits and bobs seems to always seems to spark interest and a conversation.
Best bit was buying the new daily, the guy could tell I was into cars and asked about what I've had/got. When I told him I had a modified Nova, he was off. He had an Astra GTE years ago. Was kind of weird to be surrounded by oodles of quids worth of German gear and the sales guy getting off on a chat about old vauxhalls :thumb:
I always get knocked for owning a nova,at work is where i get the most stick,because there all loved up with german taxis ( Audi) where i work .
I will tell anyone i own a nova and wont be bothered with what they say,most older people i talk to who own fords rs's ect..love them to be fair and always say i used to own one or my mates did,or used to watch them on the rallying ect :thumb:
agree with rich you have all seen my project threads i realy hate those questions and i think to be honest its because i cant even justify it to myself any more
I also try not to add it up, friends try to and say your mad, but its better than spending it on beer or prozzies lol
