There was a 'me and my car' feature on Johnny Vaughn at the weekend in the Telegraph (thanks for reminding me Aixlad).

Sold his Mercs and now drives a vRS Octavia estate as his everyday car plus the Maserati. Rates the Octavia as much as we do.

I get the Telegraph all week and I look forward to coming home from work on Saturdays to read the Motoring section !

My father pointed out the Jonny article and what a read... It really sums up badge snobbery !! Just goes to show that even rich people don't think that expensive cars are the best !

I've just converted a Mk4 Golf GTI owner over to the Octy vRS ! Long live any vRS model !!

Andy

Its a great read and the French is great ...he actually said it p*ss*d on his ex merc - the printed words and not mine. I laughed when I read it

John

He may have good taste in cars, but he's still a tit.

Is there an online version of the interview?Regards David

He may have good taste in cars, but he's still a tit.

My sentiments exactly Rob.
