Can we go back to the car-free support group threads please?

Less a yoghurt knitting, leftie-pinko, tree-hugging deviant than well... OK, so I am.

Top Gear? Watched a bit, it seemed rather sad. Lost whatever plot it had?

I used to be a petrol head, but realistically, almost nothing built this century is hugely appealing, and most are simply full size video games. As a result I;ve become very utilitarian in my car outlook.

I could find space in my garage (If I had one) for a collection of motorbikes and a couple of classics (including early Skyline), but that's about it.

Lotus Evora nice, but too low now for my creaking knees
Any V12 Lambo - audibly gorgeous, pointless in real life
