    No. My money and I have a better long term relationship than to split up over something like that.

    What's the thing you most regret buying?

    Maintenance on Mrs Rollo's Nissan Skyline R31.
    Because I spent the money on that, when my little red Ka got rear ended, there wasn't the available funds to replace the front suspension bushings and towers. That dang Skyline effectively ate my Ka.

    In your dream ten car garage (hasn't everyone got one of these) what would be your sixth choice?

    My 10 car garage would be fairly practical with only a couple of classic exotics like a Ferrari GTO and a Mercedes Gullwing. It would also include a 68 Pontiac GTO, a 72 Datsun (Nissan) 240Z, a 14 BMW M3, a 14 Ford F150 pickup, a 14 Infiniti Q70 and a 14 Volvo wagon. But my 6th chojce would be an old Ford Model T just for the fun of it.

    Pick one car and only one each for yourself and your wife/partner/ significant other - what would they be?

    Hey, I own 1/10th of your dream garage .
    Um, that would be the F150 (and a '13 not the '14) .

    From your list, I'd have the 240Z and the wife would probably choose the Volvo (with the automatic option). Given a free choice, I would have a Bristol 406 and the other half a Toyota Yaris Verso Automatic

    Going the other way, which ten cars would you consign to the crusher?

    Not sure i can give you ten, but I personally hate Nissan Micra's, smart cars and G Wiz's for a start

    What is the best car you have ever driven? (If you dont drive, then the best car you have had a ride in

    The 240Z. I owned one and loved it.

    Have you ever competed in a rally? Either TSD or performance.

    Yes, once in a stripped out Ford Escort 1600 with a dodgy roll cage. My debut lasted.....only 3 kilometres before hitting a massive rock thrown onto the road by another competitor. Decided there and then that tar was a better option!

    You ever driven a truly exotic performance car (Ferrari 458, Pagani Zonda etc)?

    Does a Hyundai count
    Seriously, no

    How often do you check tire pressure?

    No they don't

    Every Friday when I fill up with "gas" as the Yanks say.

    How long does a tank of gas in your car last normally?
