Would you let anyone else drive your car?
Personally for me, no. I just can't let anyone drive my car. It's always a paranoid thing really though. I have had a t-bone in the past and if anyone dinged it, I would be devistated.
Do you? Would you? let anyone else drive your car?

i voted yes, but i needed an inbetween option that says 'depends on the person'
i let a few of my friends drive my car, and my fiancee drives it, my little brother has driven it but i wont even let my little sister sit in the drivers seat.
i guess it all comes down to how well i think they can drive, should anyone even scratch it though and id be very very upset

Would depend for me as well, an ex of mine was on her 'L' plates and drove myself and a mate to Rye once and was taking the roundabouts at nearly 90 k's and generally scaring the bejesus out of us. Needless to say my mate and I decided one of us would be driving back

im pretty lax about it, like all stock VS's they dont stop too well unless your good with your foot (thankYOU defensive driving course! ) but probably the only person i get uptight about driving my car is my brother, my mother has driven it, my sister is on her L's but i've putted around a couple of carparks with her, i try to make it an aware but relaxed enviroment, no point in getting wound up over mistakes, point them out, correct them and then if needed demonstrate.
if any of my mates wanted a quick spin i'd be only too happy, its a interesting perspective to see how others operate your vehicle, how they adjust it etc

Depends on the circumstances, in general, i dont let anyone drive my car, and dont ask to drive others.
Besides that, if a mate needs a car, i will lend it to him/her as long as they pay for insurance under their name.

Yeah, I would let others drive my car as long as they know they will be paying for any damage that's caused by them. I would have to know the person to let them drive it though

My car is the only one in our family strong enough to tow anything, so I let dad use it for that
No one else though.

I only let my parents drive it. Once at my mates place, I let his mum drive it (she was running down to the bottle shop for us)
None of my mates will ever touch my car, after seeing how they drive theirs with me in it!

Yeah. Depends, on the person though.
Only one of my mates has driven my car. (Because the rest can't drive a manual hahaha  )
Which is good, because they have Autos and I've asked to drive their cars. Driven 2 VS Berlinas this year, a V6 and a V8, both mates cars.
If anyone else besides my parents drives it, I'll go with them. I would never let anyone drove it, without me in the car.
Mainly me and my dad drive it now.
