    And I continue to buy Gucci Rush perfume although it stinks because about 10 years ago I read that a certain singer used it.

    I drive a Ford, because (I can't afford anything faster and more expensive) in the price range I could afford they were the only brand who showed a real commitment to motorsport and rallying.

    And if I smoked I guess I would try Rothmans for the very same reason and because their liveries were spectacular.

    A shame I don't like the taste of Martini...
    There WAS nothing like rallying, Superrally is a joke!

    I think I avoided buying Red Bull in 2011 when they were winning too much.

    I never buy a product based on who they sponsor. In fact, I couldn't care less. I never watch any commercials from TV and I don't in general pay attention to sponsorship news.

    I avoid buying Red Bull though.

    There is nothing good about Red Bull

    I've never consumed a can of Red Bull (although I have tasted it). Coffee is still my choice in that arena.
    May the forza be with you

    In the first year of uni, I deliberately didn't purchase a financial calculator made by Sharp and got one made by Sony instead, because Sharp were the kit sponsors of Manchester United.
    I also have deliberately never chosen to get mobile phone services from Vodafone for the same reason.
    The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

    I meant to say I DON'T buy Red Bull anymore since I'm not the biggest fan of their team these days.

    So their sponsorship has actually had a negative effect on me.

    I just want to see them treat their drivers fairly, and I feel a bit funny about the Vettel-love from Dr Marko/Horner etc.

    Coffee is probably healthier for you - and cheaper.
