If you did a poll to people and asked what their dream car would be I can almost guarantee that it would be something very fast, very shiny and that would attract attention from the opposite sex. Where does this idea actually originate from?

Games

The computer games like Forza and GT are getting more realistic as they progress, the new GT is looking brilliant and I cannot wait to pick this up. I have to say that I am an Xbox guy so nothing will replace my Forza 3. Many people will sit down and play a game and really want that car that they are currently racing with. People do not only get to say just how good the car would look in reality (thanks to advancements in graphics) they also get a feel of the way the car would react on the road.

Childhood

Thinking back, I certainly remember the days where I used to play with those model cars as a kid, I remember always wanting an ultra cool Ferrari. You then almost set yourself a life goal in that one day you will own a car very similar to this. This, for many older people who have never experienced the joys of the Xbox 360 and PS3, is where all of these ideas come from.

Celebrities

If you are a keen celebrity follower you will know how important having something like their car would be pretty cool, this influences people a lot when it comes to car buying. A lot of people would be very happy that they own the same car as someone famous.
Of course realistically this is not going to happen and people are struggling to get a car on something like bad credit car finance or bad credit car loans. Other options like gap insurance and car leasing are out there to help people who want that fast car.

There are many films out there that have high end crashes, sex, drugs and rock and roll, what about the car movies for kids.

Cars

This was Disney or i should say Pixar’s attempt at getting the younger audiences into cars and it really worked thats for sure. When Lightning McQueen falls off the back of a truck he is stuck in a dead in town and when he accidently wrecks the road he is made to stay behind and repave it all. (more…)

We all know the drill, the weekend has arrived, you have a bit of time off in your new car leasing car and you find that you have to go out and take the kids somewhere. So what happens if they start messing about behind you?

Journey

It all depends on how far you are going and the one thing to remember is time. (more…)

With the recent films revitalising the series I thought it would be quite a cool idea to list some of the well known characters from the series and actually put down what vehicle they are in the real world.

Optimus Prime

Prime is obviously one of the most famous transformers of all time simply because he is the leader of the Autobots. Since the beginning of the series he has been able to transform into many different vehicles but the most famous (helped partly by the films) is the semi truck. (more…)

It has recently been announced that smaller cars are the key to fewer omissions to the atmosphere but the real question that needs to be asked is, are they really that great from a usability point of view?

Family

You can get many small cars that quite easily fit a family of four in but the problem is, the newer ones are getting smaller meaning there is going to be even less room.

Shopping

The problem with shopping comes when you have to do it with someone else, then there is very little room in the car to actually store anything. (more…)
