Car wreck

A disgruntled eight-year-old schoolboy took his teacher's car and crashed it. See why...

What kind of car are you?


You may be driving a battered 1970 Beetle, but what car would really suit your personality? Take our fun car quiz and find out.


1. Your idea of a perfect weekend is?
Soft beds, good food, great views – without ruining the budget!

Somewhere that no one else knows about

A five-star hotel or guest house

A tented camp in the middle of the bush

2. How important is it to get those admiring stares from other drivers on the road?
I hate being stared at – leave me and my car alone!

I'd prefer to be noticed for being unique rather than wealthy

Envious stares in the traffic – what a pleasure

I never notice the stares ... I 'm too busy scanning the horizon and looking for the quickest route out of the city

3. Your ideal date?
We could be scoffing burgers at the drive in – I don 't care where we go as long as the company is good

A fabulous party, so we can dance till dawn and get to know each other

A rooftop restaurant, a blue, sparkling pool, candles, silver cutlery and Champagne

A midnight picnic on the Hartbeespoort Dam wall

4. Your favourite movies?
Romantic comedies

Art house

Thrillers

Action

5. Your favourite meal?
Anything I don't have to prepare ...

Thai me up

Cordon bleu or bust

Come on baby, light my braai!

6. How would you define your dress sense most of the time?
I am not a slave to fashion, but I can pull it all together quite nicely when I need to, thank you

I defy definition

A class act ... I can spot a Prada shoe at 50 paces

I love clothes that I feel free and relaxed in, khaki and cotton and boots for stomping through the bush

7. Your ideal pet?
A dog or cat that's good with the kids

A pot-bellied pig

A sleek Siamese

A Labrador

8. What do you most enjoy watching on TV?
Friends

The Practice

The Weakest Link

National Geographic documentaries

9. How do you shop?
Timed like a military operation: Get in and get out as fast as possible!

Not a great mall stroller but I love finding the specialist shops – antique,second-hand – and browsing for the latest trends

We have such fabulous malls, I could shop for hours

I 'm not one for shopping centres, but will stop at an amazing curio store in the middle of nowhere.

10. How would you describe your ideal partner?
Honest, supportive, fun

Artistic, connected, intuitive

Successful, stylish, switched-on

Outdoorsy, good in shorts, sense of humour
