5 Reasons We Love Cars

It’ll come as no surprise that we think cars are great. Car enthusiasts all over the world have their own personal reasons for their car obsession. While everyone is unique, there are some universal truths about cars that drivers everywhere can agree upon. Here is a list of our top five reasons why we love cars so much.

Expression of your personality

A car is so much more than a material possession. So much more than a status symbol. So much more than a mode of transportation. Wouldn’t you agree? 

The wheels you choose are an extension of how you view yourself and usually reflect traits of your personality. For the bold and adventurous, maybe you define yourself with an Audi Q8. For those concerned about the environment, perhaps a Volkswagen ID.5 shows the world who you are. If you’re family orientated why not go with the super-comfy Kia Sportage

Whichever car grabs your attention, there’s absolutely no wrong answer. 

Comfort and convenience

Are comfort and convenience the top reasons any of us own a car? Yeah, probably.

There’s no getting away from the fact that having a car means you don’t have to rely on public transport. No more being governed by timetables, and no more getting off to a bad start if there’s no spare seat on the train that morning. 

Jump in your car outside your front door, drive to your destination, and get out. What a wonderful invention. Sure, it might be fraction more expensive to run and fuel a car, but that’s just the price we pay, isn’t it? 

Enjoyment of driving

Something that’s often forgotten in the conversation around cars is that many people drive not only for necessity, but for enjoyment too.

Driving’s a skill, broadly speaking, and just like any other skill, some people enjoy practising and honing that skill – safely and responsibly of course!

So whether it’s taking your convertible out on a sunny evening for a drive round the countryside, or taking the long way home from work, there’s driving pleasure to be had whenever and wherever the mood takes you. 

Shared Experience

Cars have multiple seats for a good reason. It’s so that other people can join you on your journey!

Cars are one of the greatest environments for bonding with family and friends. There’s not much better than a good road trip with a few of your closest friends, or maybe just your significant other. Snacks in the glovebox, suitcase in the boot, tunes on the stereo. 

Freedom

From the moment you get that driver’s license, you’ll never be the same again. Everyone likes to be independent, and having a car gives you the opportunity to go where you want, when you want.

It’s more than just convenience, though. It’s a perk of the modern world that we have access to means of transportation that turns cross-country travel into a question of hours, rather than days.

The advantage of a car over, say, a train is that your journey can be door-to-door, in your own time and on your own terms. Totally freeing.


Cars are an important part of our everyday lives so make sure you choose one that you love!
