I'd have thought that not so many females ventured onto a car forum, hence the percentages. I see more males than females in the Scirocco, but there's a fair few being driven by women of a certain age now (self included); reckon it's around 75/25 male/female.
I hate to say this but whilst not
all blokes will acknowledge another Scirocco driver, most women seem oblivious to other Sciroccos in their vicinity and don't even seem to look at other 'rocs. I'd a woman follow me up Crickley Hill last week, then onto the 417 towards Cirencester. She was in an identical Candy 10 plated 170 tdi, followed me for easily ten miles but didn't even glance over as she passed.
The only reason I know anything about cars at all is that I have to pick a new one every 80,000 miles or so, one that I'm going to spend 20/30 hours in every week in. When I think back to the days when I just drove to work/the shops/pub all I cared about was whether the car would get me there and if it looked pretty. Maybe most of the female drivers are like that, and just ordered a new shape Golf style thing to go shopping/to the hairdressers in hence they don't have the interest in their cars that we* have.
*'we' being the good posters on this forum, male AND female.
maybe a bit old to say im a girl
