    My first car was a beetle, but it couldn't beat a lamp post after exams. Then I got a Giulietta what a nice car except for overheating.
    Only stress when you can change the outcome!

    I've got a Citi Golf 1.4i. Simply love all the add-ons available...and that costs money. So don't judge the car.

    Mostly gaming and anything to do with their computers. At least the older one makes a living out of it

    Since this thread started I have been paying more attention to older vehicles on the road, yesterday I got to see an old yellow left hand drive mustang with black leather seats, chrome bumpers etc, in mint condition.

    I also noticed what looked like a Vauxhall, still original, still in the the pale blue with chrome bumpers etc.

    Take your boys to the local tracks “safe racing” and the part responsible for “engine crazy” in there DNA will go on autopilot. Also the pretty girls help get things into perspective. Most mothers would rather they stay at home and “out of trouble” this basically does the opposite.

    Then they want fast cars and eventually get in trouble...

    I got my brother's 7 year old daughter to the point where she can build a computer from the ground up. Now her mother showed her the value of gardening and all that she loves that too... But she really really likes going fast and the speed bug is in the family so she wants a Porsche "a pink one at that"

    Now imagine my brother's face...
