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."signature room for rent"

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 just want to see them treat their drivers fairly, and I feel a bit funny about the Vettel-love from Dr Marko/Horner etc.SPAM - Going off topic to give you the deals you don't want.
