what is it with red cars?
Gordo:
My one and only red car, a VW Golf Mk3, lasted just two months before being T-boned at 50mph by an insurance salesman in a silver Toyota MR2 (I've never liked those!). I've still got the injuries now. :x
All my cars (excepy my current one- my Freelander) have been hit by other drivers - that's 4 in 10 years. They were white (written-off), dark red (written off), dark grey and light blue.
Why is it that the people who drive around in mist, fog and heavy rain without lights all have silver cars? Is it to make sure you can't see them? :rolleyes:
Range Rover Blues:
I thought that it was white cars that were meant to be safest, with or without he big red stripe ;)
mudmuncher:
At work I drive a Ford Transit with all its "bling". Stands out a mile but wouldn't concider it safe.
So many drivers are blind out there [-X

I find wearing a hi vis jacket makes me a moving target for people. closest anyone has got to me was when I was a postie and thier wing mirror skimmed the back of my hi vis. That was a brown trouser moment!
cardiff_gareth:
red cars are unlucky !
I have had 2, well actually one, the other was belonged to my brother in law (he owned it for 1 day) before I crashed it and wrote it off - ooops :doh:
I even managed to crash my last Disco that was also red into the back of another car
Now I stick to black vehicles - so far they have remained in one peice :lol:
