I wouldn't, I'm a German cars fan.

However my uncle had one. A few months ago he had a very bad accident against a huge truck. They say the sturdiness of the car saved his life.

Not me. I drive a Mazda now, but will be buying a Toyota HiLux double cab pickup if I stay in Africa. Best reliability and parts availability for the sort of places I tend to end up living.

With the possible exception of people looking at HUMMERS, I really don't think people's taste in Hobbies has much to do with their taste in vehicles.

Oh my, an Italian is a fan of German cars? Don't tell me you're a diesel fan also...? [8|]

Myself, I have once driven Alfa Romeo, but it was too expensive to upkeep and insure that I had to sell it. And I'm still sorry about that.
If I ever get rich by playing games, I would definitely park one in my garage, again.
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage.

Ah, Alfa is a overrated car to drive. My Mustang drives a lot better (V8 vs V6). Otherwise a fine automobile (Alfa that is).

Ford is the name of the game... yea yea I know what it stands for (yes with the American Ford that I have, but not with the European one).

[:D]Consider that usually the grass of the neighbor is always greener...and we, italians, usually consider the italian cars crappy, while the german ones are really loved here...

Myself too, the last 10 cars we had in my family were all Audi-Volkswagen-BMW or Mercedes. I drive Fiat only when i rent a car but i'd never buy one of those
