Britain a nation of car lovers

October 14th, 2009

What percentage of people do you think have ever broken up, kissed and made up or even proposed in their cars?

Car insurance company swiftcover.com researched into how many of us Brits had ever had the urge to indulge in some things which should be kept in the bedroom department, and the figures were surprising.

We truly are a nation of car lovers with nearly half of vehicle owners (49%) admitting to having had automotive sex more than twice.

In fact, many of us seem to feel quite at home in our cars, 93% of the population have changed clothes in their motor vehicles, and 74% of UK drivers admit to snacking on some breakfast while stuck in the early morning rush hour.

Some drivers have even thought of their cars as a romantic place to lounge, with 6% of us proposing or being proposed to whilst comfortably settled in their love-mobiles, not quite the engagement most of us dream about.

At the end of the day, a car is really for people to get from A to B, so leading insurer Swiftcover insist that we concentrate whilst travelling the roads, be safe, and enjoy the savings received from cheap car insurance.
