This of course is the opposite end of the spectrum to many "average drivers". To them cars are merely transport, day after day they turn the key and put the boot in (many with a cold engine) then wonder why the engine fails before it's time and write into cars guide complaining brand X is crap and they will purchase brand Y next time.

They do not care about their car or yours (shopping trolley dings anyone ?) all they want to do is get to work as soon as possible and drive accordingly with little regard to what goes on around them, too busy doing makeup/texting/bookwork etc... whilst on the road to care about speed matching or moving over for a faster vehicle coming behind.

The point is I'd like to believe us enthusiasts of all brands take a little more care than Joe Average wearing his cardigan in the Camry with the champagne duco.
whoa that is deep, and spot on!! KUDOS MATE!!!
