Mate, if you dont ask you dont get. I get stressed off with people whos parents buy them cars (dont even get me started on Manu_GTI, MK5 GTi & MK5 R32 !!!) but thats only because im jealouse that I wasnt bought one. If my parents offered id be lapping it up. Push your luck and get what you can I say.

Good news btw, bet you cant wait for that noise :D

People should be embarrassed to accept expensive cars from their parents!  Ok, a sh!tty little Corsa or something when you are 17 is fine, but anything else is ridiculous!

I would reject that kind of expensive gift from my parents, as I've always done and do and will do.
But that also would depend on how wealthy the parents are. Mine are not.
If MANU's dad is loaded, I see no reason not to accept a car from the daddy-o. At least he is honest about the fact.

And yes, I am jealous, too, because I did not get a chance to have my own car back then when I was young and restless.  :cry:

I mean, Porsche is great to have any time, but much better to have it when you are young and nice ladies do not consider you an old fart with a classy vehicle.  :lipsrsealed:
