Why owning a Lotus is better than sex (Honest)
Posted: Mon Apr 25, 2005 7:29 pm
With brief apologies for NLC. This list was published in the recent Club Lotus Magazine from Nigel Price. It made me laugh (& 'er indoors too).
Why Cars are Better than Sex:
1; You don't have to hide your car magazines.
2; You can have more than one car at the same time.
3; Your partner won't object if you join a car club.
4; You can have a professional teach you to drive.
5; Your partner doesn't mind if you fancy a drive in your mate's car.
6; Your partner doesn't object if you tell everyone how well your car goes.
7; There's nothing wrong with admiring other people's cars.
8; Your partner doesn't mind you talking about cars you had years ago.
9; You don't mind strangers looking under the bonnet (hood) of your car.
10; When you see a nice car you don't have to feel guilty if you imagine driving it.
11; No one will say you'll go blind if you drive by yourself.
12; You can have a car calender on your office wall, tell motoring jokes and offer co-workers a lift without being sued for harassment.
13; There are no car transmitted diseases.
14; Nobody expects you to drive the same car your whole life.
15; You can have your car rebuilt when performance drops and it gets rusty.
16; Nobody expects you to give up driving it if your partner loses interest.
17; Your car will never say "Not again? We went for a drive last week! Is driving all you ever think about?"
Do any of you know any others?
How about a variation on 13 - When you get an itch in your shorts you know it's because you've been sanding. or 15; With enough money you can get your car back to the condition she was in when you got her.
