Expensive Car Owners Are Love Cheaters! Time To Hide The Aston?
BMW Owner? Are you having an affair?
Do you think your partner is having an affair? What kind of car do they drive? You wouldn’t think these two questions would have anything in common but actually they do - apparently the flashier your car the higher your chances of being involved in an affair…naughty!
The UK’s largest extra-marital dating site, illicitencounters.com, is claiming that expensive car owners are more likely to cheat on their partners compared to those with cheap cars.
Driving you to cheat?
The site completed a survey amongst its 300,000 customer base and found that drivers of cars like BMWs and Mercedes were more likely to cheat compared to drivers of Vauxhalls and Fords.
Are you starting to panic yet? Has your partner get a Porsche? According to a spokeswoman for the website, Sara Hartley, has pointed out that owners of expensive cars are more likely to know what they want and go out and get it.
“Many of those actively seeking an affair tend to be go-getters, which is reflected in their choice of car and their chosen profession. They are often conspicuous consumers,” said Hartley.
The survey undertaken by the site found that 20.9 per cent of those questioned drove expensive cars - making up the numbers saw 16 Bentleys, 135 BMWs, 31 Porsches and 5 Aston Martins.
It doesn’t end with cars…
But according to the site the tell-tale cheater signs don’t stop with cars - apparently your career is also a dead give away to your intentions. The site is claiming that Yachtsmen are more likely to have an affair over other professions.
Rosie Freeman Jones, another spokeswoman for the site, is claiming that professions have a great deal to do with affairs as they involve some cunning and a great deal of good time-management.
“Scheduling is unbelievably important when you’re having an affair. If you are living with your partner but seeing someone else full time then you need alibis, you need to know which friends to tell and which not to, so it is a juggling act and if you don’t have planning skills then you are going to fail,” said Jones.
Boats to blame?
The site goes on to also point the finger at marine industry workers as they are known for their unsurpassed time management skills which makes the whole affair business a little easier.
Sarah Hartley continued by blaming the recession for the amount of affairs that take place within the transportation and logistics industry, saying, “the economic crisis has had a profound affect on our site.”
“Those working in the transportation and logistics industry are currently experiencing a lot of cut-backs - that means more unemployment, tighter deadlines, underfunding. These things can cause pressure at home, which is the main reason men and women have affairs.
“Those in this industry have an advantage in that their jobs involve a great deal of scheduling. A successful affair requires planning, time-management, to avoid getting found out,” said Hartley.

The study by Brylcreem found that over 60 percent of young men aged between 18 and 29 are competent ironers, with a paltry ten percent unable to maintain a car and almost half unable to change a tire.
“As men have been reacting to being told ‘how they should behave’ rather than ‘how they really are’, they’ve crossed the line from just ‘changing with the times’ to committing outright gender surrender?.
That?s right, I said it. If it wasn?t for him, men would still be rockin? a middle parting and a wedge, not wearing designer clothes that go out of fashion quicker than you can afford it and they would be under the car bonnet, up to there elbow?s in grease and oil instead of straightening their hair and reading Heat magazine.
