So if you only ride bikes you've not experanced what some car's can do, then your a biker? but now many drivers have got the speed bug from fast car's and got a bike. But do you consider yorself more of a biker or driver? I love my kit car and bike. I could not be without either. Both give me a buzz that are very different from one another Do you own a fast car? would you give it up for being a biker? or the other way around? The £ per fun is much better on a bike. 11k for a new blade and how quick are they.
Im a biker at hart . since my dad put me on z50 when i was 4 iv been obsessed .. off road till i was 16 then after my CBT i was obsessed with road bikes . My hole family are bikers and i now have both of my grandfathers old bikes from the 50's I do like cars but would never have 1 over a bike and would not spend the money for an exotic car so i stick with small hot hatch's . A bit childish but i love them Iv had a 106 GTI , Escort RS Turbo ( good fun ) 2.0 206 GTI 180 and now a C2 VTS I will grow up one day and get a mans car lol .... Probably
I am a car man more than anything else. Drive a 200+bhp BMW 120d Msport. Its very good fun. I am probably quicker in my car than I am on my bike.
Cars don't really do much for me hence owning an £11k bike and a £2k car. I've not been in a really fast car but have been taken for a lap of the Ring in a well driven Scirocco. Didn't enjoy it much. Would probably have been better if I was driving. Also I love the fact you can embarass a £200k car with a £2k bike. Can't see me ever giving them up.
I am now more a biker I guess, I have always loved bikes and for the money bikes are more fun, more reliable and dont lose you as much money in the long run. I have had 35 cars since passing my test in 1997, Focus st3 @310 bhp, Fiat coupe 20vt plus @265 bhp, renaulsport 225 x 2, pug 205 gti etc etc I think you get the theme. But you just dont get a chance to enjoy them as much on the road. I now have the blade and a mondeo lx to go to work and back, so I think that tells the story at the moment. I am saving for an Audi rs4 though
I love my bike but I,m an avid follower of F1 and yes I like my cars too. I drive a BMW330d M Sport and I have to say I'm not sure the blade would win in a "which to keep" comp: Sorry, best not ask!
I drive a 4x4 for work and need a large daily drive. Great in all weather also. My kit car is not expensive and I've never spent loads on blinging up cars. my kit car only had 160BHP but weighing only 640KG with a full tank is fun. But it's still slow compared to the blade I can't spend loads on a car to loose loads of money on it. But a bike I don't mind due to the fun it gives me
ooohh, good one. When I got the car bug, I went down badly with it. My first two and a half cars I maxed out as much as I could afford and drove them to their limits. Then I bought my first quick car, the last of the rear wheel drive Celica GT's and found that my limits were now way below the limits of the car's. When I got into rallying I got a 205 gti for the road which was another league again. I drove that to death and replaced it with my first brand new car, a 206 gti, because I wanted something the same but more toys and comfort. Now I'm older I'm trying the sports car scenario, and enjoying that too, and I will, as long as I'm able, always have interesting cars, as interesting as I can afford. But.....I still get introduced by 'this is Ken, he's a biker.' Not the driver. And I've never felt inclined to correct them.
Deffo a biker first, cars will always be needed and it's nice to have a new car, my one and only new one was a focus diesel! That's when I was trying to be sensible, lol. Had an astra gte 16 valve in the early ninetys that was fun, now run a vectra v6 diesel which is ok. Once I buy one I tend to hang onto them. But bikes have and will always be my passion, I can't stay out of the bloody garage at the moment and the wifes getting sick of it. But mans gotta do what he's gotta do lol.
Used to have a honda civic type R and a yamaha R6, always favoured the bike although the car was alot of fun, sold the R6 and traded my civic in for the blade, never looked back, a car can never give me the buzz that i get from my bike!
Hmmm hard one this! I am defo a biker But into cars aswell car mechanic! ive owned 8 bikes in 17 years and 2 cars in 13!! Biking till 20 then swapped cbr400 gullarm after binning it for a mint nova GTE! chav i know haha! owned that 12 months then bought a 53.000 tho mile 91 jreg seirra cosworth 4x4 which is my day to day car still now with 77.000 tho on clock abd i am 33 haha! here she is at work
She looks mint, amazing car and even by todays standards they still rock I bet its one of those cars that will just go up in value over the years, my mates looking for a mk1 escort, I cannot belive the prices there going for.....
Cheers mate yeah always been a rs man! love the mk1 mk2 etc etc! it cost me 9 grand 12 years ago and its worth at least 9 grand now O but ive got about 15 in it haha but will be keeping it forever anyway!

Im a Ford fan to had a xr2, mk 4 xr3i, 06 focus st3, 03 mondeo st220 all fantastic reliable cars, hat off to you having the cosworth since 21
Ats a nice Cossie Bats! I have had all sorts of cars from early XR's when I was young, Porsche, Scooby, BMW's to classic Mercs. Last few have been 4x4's of sorts due to staying in a god forbidden snow location - but you canna beat the thrill of bikes, full stop! If I had the money it would have to be a Lambo though.
