Q. What vehicle do you drive?

A. Citroen AX – I honestly have no idea what year. I suspect sometime in the 1890s. It’s old.

Q. How long have you had it?

A. The car doesn’t actually belong to me. Strictly speaking it belongs to my girlfriend Nicky, it was a gift from her Dad and his wife.

Q. How much did it cost?

A. Free as a bird (thanks to Rob and Jo).

Q. What work have you done to the vehicle? How much did it cost to repair?

A. I put her in for an MOT last week. She failed. Miserably. In order to get her roadworthy I had to fork out almost £500. Annoyingly a recent quote suggested the she was only worth £200, so she was effectively written off, but I couldn’t bear to part with her.

Q. Why did you get this particular vehicle?

A. I would really hope this car doesn’t reflect my personality; it’s old, cheap to run, fairly knackered and not particularly easy on the eye.

I’m not sure the car has ever really impressed anyone, in fact I am usually the butt of many people’s jokes here at JACK FM because of it. It doesn’t bother me though; I only have to fill her up about once a month and she usually runs like a dream.

Q. What do you like most about it?

Q. She’s generally reliable and very, very cheap to run.

Q. What irritates you most about it?

A. Believe it or not, she used to have a spoiler. I woke up one morning and it had been ripped off.

Q. Is it good value for money?

A. It’s very good value for money, costing about £35 to fill the tank.

Q. Does it have a name?

A. Yes, Maud. I refer you to my earlier comment that the car actually belongs to my girlfriend. I know a lot of women who name their cars, not so many men.

What is your favourite memory of the vehicle?

A group of Oxford University students once painted her headlights to look like eyes one night on what I can only assume was a drunken prank. I didn’t notice at first but I soon realised something was wrong when the oncoming traffic started flashing me.

Q. And your worst?

A. Probably when I crashed in to a stationary police car at the BP Garage at the top of Woodstock Road. That was a low-point.

Q. If you could own any vehicle what would it be?

Probably a VW Golf.
