Red Xsara - NSF Damaged when I sneezed and bumped into a metal fire escape.

I'm staying well away................

Im sorry, but thats quite funny

Ive not had the problem of a colour jinxing me. Supposedly green cars are said to be involved in more 'incidents' than other colours ... I never had that problem.

My cars are usually always a shade of grey, well I say usually always but as black and white could technically be classed as a shade of grey then thats all of them

A friend of ours used to be a broker, and he said the same thing, but he used the term "Grandad Green".........

and appraently, sneezing is a valid reason for having a bump, although I suspect it would have to be more that a mouse's.......

Ah, not heard that term before, Grandad green! Thats a shame, I like some shades of green on cars ....

Well I know someone who wrote off their car as they were coughing, anything is possible

Why are C6s from 2005 in a cheaper tax bracket?

Free tax on a C6, thats better than £20 a year for a C1

The first ones in 55 plates and 60 plates are on the older tax system.. Then after 2006 the prices changed again higher...

Oh right worth bearing in mind.

Though I assume you mean 06 plates ...
