i drive my car myself cos i love doing so and even if i have to accompany my dad somewhere i prefer to drive his car rather then let the chauffuer drive.

but there are times when i m not in mood to drive then i ask the chauffuer to drive me around. but this happens rarely.

My answer is both option last and second last...

Neither can i afford it (i am still studying..) nor i like not to drive the car myself..

I can't afford one,thats 'cos i am still studying and why would I have to call someone to drive me around when I love driving, you see I just got my DL in May.

Samurai · 2nd August 2005, 15:13

No, I didn't buy the Baleno so that someone else can have fun and get paid for it too.

Cars I'd have chauffeur driven are the ones I can't enjoy driving.

Surprise · 2nd August 2005, 15:20

Being a newbie to driving, I love to be on the wheels. Not sure what will happen once I get tired of it. I could not say whether I love driving or not, today's answer is yes, but may be not the right one.

If I love driving, I hate chauffeur

my father has one ..........not me

when you guys get older you'll see things my way :-) after having a DL for about 30 years now I dont care to drive unless the average speed exceeds 80 kmph. I wont use a chauffer on the autobahn and if go to poona without my family i let my chauffer use the passenger seat and drive but other than that why bust your head in traffic if you can afford not to.

I have a driver to drive me around wwhen i am not feeling too positive about driving in our HORRIBLE AND HORRENDOUS HYD traffic conditions ...
well .. i find him useful as he keeps doing other work also in home and in Off and i send my driver whenever my Dad and my wife want to go out and i am releived of that duty ...

turbo_lover · 2nd August 2005, 19:03

looking at the poll Chauffeurs are certainly not welcome in this forum !!
We have a chauffeur, for mom mostly ...
I frankly dont like being driven ,so i voted for the last option.

Abhay · 2nd August 2005, 21:41

well I voted no , I like to drive but the real answer would be combination of that and "no, I cant afford" lol and my car isnt really one which fits the chauffer driven car level..

although I know a guy who is driven around in his....wait for it.....................Zen :s

gr8guzzler · 2nd August 2005, 21:59

5 days a week go to work in my office qualis....hate it since I can't drive....

Get to drive my car only on the weekends and don't want to loose any chance to drive it...hence don't prefer a chauffeur...but then as Haryan mentioned, they are very handy when you are not in the mood to chauffeur your family around

Cheers!!!
