Strange Habits of Car Lovers

[type-r]

The manual says the parking brake needs to be pulled directly while engaging (no need to press the button at the end while engaging), while disengaging press the button and push it down.

How many of us push the button even while engaging the parking brake to avoid the krrr sound !

i like the krrr sound so i never use the button to engage. :P

1) NEVER EVER EVER give my Car to a Lady for driving.Trust me !!
2) Fix even the smallest Problem (Whatever Costs Come.No Problem).Eh.... Daewoo !!
3) Keep Tyre Pressure exactly to the Original
4) Keep that 'you-come-one-centimeter-closer to-my-car-and-I'll-whup-you' to EVERYONE
5) Cleaning the Interior and Exterior Once every 3 Days
6) Looking at Her (My Daewoo Matiz) and Thinking 'One day She will be known for her loyality' !!!

Dusting the car cover before taking it off the car.

99% I do this unless otherwise car was is due on the day or next day (some kind of laziness)

But I hate to drive with dust covered so as much as possible I will avoid it.

Choosing independent house over apartment - which would allow own space to wash & maintain the rides (if not a own garage)

I normally just have a look at my parked car and its cover (whether properly covred or not) whenever I come back from office every evening as I drive car mostly on weekends only... :redface:

And thinking about parking space first, keeping aside everything else, during architecture phase.
