This is a load of old rubbish, but you might like to give it a go.

Apparently I'm a chameleon. Nice to know.
I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

Your Strengths:
You are constantly alert and very much aware of what other road users are doing.

Your Weak Points:
Your overwhelming desire to out-think and out-manoeuvre other drivers can cause you to sometimes make selfish decisions.

Routes you relish:
Anywhere that impresses your passengers or other road users with your surprising local knowledge. Often found lost on suburban housing estates.

Panther here too...

Strengths:
You reach your destination rapidly and seldom waste time when behind the wheel.

Weak Points:
You are inclined to take risks so make sure they are always calculated.

Routes you relish:
A demanding two carriage way B road, where out braking and out manoeuvring reaps its rewards.

Can't say fairer than that eh :)

A Chameleon!! - a bit of a change from a Snoring Rhino.

Your Strengths:
Your ability to match your driving style to your changing driving environment allows you to exploit every opportunity offered.

Your Weak Points:
Adopting some driving tactics only occasionally, means your ability in certain situations may not be all that high. Proceed with caution in unfamiliar motoring conditions.

Routes you relish:
Any time, any place, anywhere. The chameleon prides his ability to match road conditions.

I'm a sh*t-head!!

Your Strengths:
My ability to completely misjudge every driving situation keeps pedestrians and those guys who pick up the litter along the verges on their toes. And Uncle Albert.

Your Weak Points:
Decidedly flacid mid-week erections.

Routes I relish:
Down to the dump. And that little dark alley half way between my house and the local. It's either that or the doggy bag box.

Steve Z hasn't replied to this yet but I'm fairly sure he's be a "Bull in a china shop". He's written off or otherwise destroyed every single car he's owned (and some that he didn't!) in the last ten years.

FWIW in another area of his life he was recently described as a Human Sewing Machine!

Me Panther as well - perhaps at my age I should become a gazelle (or more realistically a dead donkey)!!

Me too, and just for once I answered a questionnaire honestly.
Last time I got lost in a suburban housing estate was about 20 years ago. I was trying to find the young(ish) lady (?) with whom I had enjoyed Ugandan discussions after the pub closed the night before. Found her eventually, with the desired conclusion. The bitch promply turned up at my house a couple of days later, to inform my wife that she was not doing the business with me.
I'm not married to that wife now, and I haven't seen my friend of 20 years ago for a long time - shame, she owned a mid-engined R5 Turbo. Nice car to drive, but though you can do it on the back seat of a Mini, I tried and failed to consumate my desire on the shelf behind the R5's seats.
