Failing my driving test first time; that was a disappointment on a geological scale.

I've been in a car three or four times when it filled with water and it's not a comfortable feeling.

My first car was a 1976 Toyota Corolla Liftback in red, like the one in 'The Blues Brothers.' I painted a Union Jack on the roof. I was absolutely in love with it until I destroyed it, which broke my heart!

Mothers will be fishing kids out of obscure cubby-holes for years!

Ask any Ferrari, Porsche or Ray-Ban salesperson about their average customer and you will very likely hear that he is not, as the adverts would have us believe, a virile young footballer with shiny hair, a rippling six pack and a trouser pouch like a new punch bag. He is, in fact, a middle-aged bloke wearing more chins than he started life with and carrying the clear evidence of forty years of beer and pies slung across his midriff.

If I can be cruel; I'm not a big fan of the Audi R8, actually.

Now, personally, I like a car with some sort of character.
