Title: My wife kills cars
Post by: Gaffers on 14 July 2011, 14:51:31
I have long suspected it but now I am pretty sure.  She must be negetively charged or something because she has killed 2 cars this month and always seems to have problems.

With th emiggy when it was having overheating problems it would overheat more with her than me, yet I drive faster....

We picked up a Ford Focus last week for her and I drive it about with no problem.  The one day she gets in it to drive the starter motor wont engage!

Anybody else experienced this?

Never let a woman drive your car, I've made this mistake many a time, but never again.

If your going to name a car then give it a blokes name. Name it after a woman and it will only let you down  :y

Ollie is going fine, Max the Mondy has never skipped a beat............ meanwhile Mandy ::) has needed new tyres, wheels ("i didn't see it - honest") shocks and a shed load of touch up paint. You decide. ;D
