I reckon its a ploy so she can always use the car with the most fuel in....

 yep sounds about right !! luckly my wife doesnt drive so im ok !! just have to take here there and every bloody were !!  

mines the same Mark.....she has found that buses operate in our area though

i work on the theory, you break it, you fix it  

she rekons she is too posh for buses  

mine was like that........until i started working away and she realised that her need for shopping was greater than her pride  

she would just ring my mum to take her or my sister

TB, Get her a peddle car   at least it's cheap, no servicing needed, no tax and at least if she breaks it just replace it with another one from children's world.

Lucky you have three cars Jamie else Mrs. The Boy would have the crash helmet and leathers on, blowing the cobwebs off ZX10

I wish someone would use the ZX10 - its done precisely 2m since the MOT last August

which was about the last time we had a sunny day

They break, you fix. That's the way it is  

Guess its only fair.  Fixing cars is designated a 'blue job' in the TB household.

Fortunately, cooking, cleaning, washing etc are all 'pink jobs'

Can you boys remember that there are a few 'she's' on here and some of us like to get our hands dirty fixing the problems 'he' makes....lol    

[Vamps]

the wife says its " my car" until it breaks then its"ours" or "there's
something wrong with YOUR car"

Yep, the same here, when it needs tyres or the tax and insurance are due, apparently that is my responsibility!
 

[Omega Pixie]

There are no pink or blue jobs in our house....just grey

I have it on good authority that she won't break one of these:

Good for 230 BHP so should hustle the Rover along a little too. [smiley=evil.gif]

I try, but i have to admit I do bow down to greater knowledge...hubby is much better at mechanics, washing, cleaning, tidying...etc than i am....I just teach and have smaller hands for hard to reach places...

Yeah, it's at the back of the garage! That's what we call a downward spiral. Don't use the bike, so don't clean out the garage, so don't use the bike . . .

I considered building one, but 1 had no room, 2 no money - was looking at a Westfield basic kit - one designed for Escort components, but using a different engine box and axle
