It had to be you Dunk :) ... Jo refuses to use my car when i'm not there ... but she does gun it when we're out ... my general comment is - "so you don't like your licence darling"

i KNEW it was dunk when i read the first half of stu's sentence :)
to be honest, who here wouldnt? infact who here would let someone else drive their car without their supervision?

my dad keeps asking "for a go" in my car, which ive successfully managed to put off for a year. hes been responsible for flipping a ford granada over an embankment and into some trees, drove into a ditchin scotland and most recently "drifted" the hilux into a ditch at 4am....

he's a sensible man that Dunk :)

That would be me then. I am happy for people to drive my car if I think they will respect it, can handle it and have the cash to pay for its immediate replacement in the event of them breaking any or all of it. If I can't trust them on that basis, then they won't get behind the wheel.

I'm with Bladey. I find it really cool that Tan likes the performance aspect of car ownership as much (nearly) as I do. She is even thinking of getting her manual licence at the moment. If she goes ahead I'll be more than happy for her to use the GTR. I'm sure she will be too.

Well done Stu for bringing this to our attention.

I thought the same as Blady though with the "datalogs their other half " lol
Now there's an idea. Not me though as is ready to drop a sprog!!!!

Have to admit my lady drives the EVO at least as hard as me (well maybe not in the corners :twisted: ) mainly due to her lower levels of mechanical sympathy i reckon :lol:
