Vic: Survey finds cars more important than partners

Drivers of hotted-up cars prize them more than their partners and believe their vehicles
boost their sex appeal.

An Australian car insurance company website survey has found drivers of modified high-performance
vehicles often rate them higher than their girlfriends or boyfriends.

Almost half of the 180 respondents in the Just Car Insurance survey say their cars
are their main interest in life.

About 14 per cent of respondents would pick their cars ahead of their partner if forced
to choose between them.

And 44 per cent say people who drive modified cars get more attention from the opposite sex.
