Am I really that predicatble?
A friend suggested I take the car test at tickle.com. I had never been to that site before, but the idea is that they ask you some questions about your personality, and then tell you what your ideal car is. Here's the result for me:
Convertible
Ooo wee! You've got the wind in your hair, the sun on your face, and anyone with two eyes wishing they could nestle into your passenger seat. You're all about top-down, Convertible fun. We're thinking '69 Mustang, '64 Corvette, or Mazda Miata, in cherry red, of course. The car for you embodies youth, freedom, and summertime excitement. You've got a wild outlook on life and are always game for a good time. Since you're comfortable being the center of attention, you zip around town looking sleek and fresh, stealing flirty glances from your rearview mirror. Being so sexy and open, you attract friends, love interests, and joy riders wherever you go. It's no surprise if some hot number pulls alongside to challenge you to a little drag down Lovers Lane. You're the classic party mobile so crank up the music and hit the open road.
The fact is, I do drive a Mazda Miata (or MX-5 as they are called in the UK). I'm even a member of the MX-5 Owner's Club (although only to get cheaper insurance). So they got that spot on.
But apparently 19% of people in the world are "Convertibles". So I'm only 1-in-5.
As for the other bits, I'm not saying whether they got me right or not...
