Default Do you let her drive it?

How many people let their other halves drive the S2k? Mine is a named driver but let her no where near it!

Note: this is not necessarily a sexist thread!

Nope - her accident history makes it too risky.

Yes, she's much more important than the car.

However, about a week after I bought it, I let an ex (my then girlfriend) drive it and she stalled it twice, graunched the gears about four times and had an unfortunate attack of the old hot air intake syndrome, so she vowed never to drive it again!!

I let my ex drive it .. she's a LOT better driver than I am ..
She also looks hot driving a proper car instead of her A4 Estate.

Then re-word your tittle otherwise this statement is not credible.

Definately although she claims that when she drives the car and I'm in it its like taking her test again. She reckons that she drives it much much better when shes on her own.

Proof to back this up was that I once saw her racing another lass in a Z3 on the way back from work once.

Tina drives all of the cars we have had and will have, drives the company van better than me, or so she tells me, as i always get flashed and the odd finger wave but i have no idea what it all means so take no notice.

its only a car in the end, replaceable for a much better one when her life insurance pays out.
