    That was hilarious

    Especially the ones with the women driving onto the garage pit and the one at the car park barrier.....the roll at the gates was one i'd seen before.

    Brilliant, thats made my day thankyou.

    Yes, it is a bit sexist. Would you get in a car with any of the women in the video? I think not.

    Lol...

    Its the age old argument that it's sexist, but I'm happy just to sit back and watch them go bust under their own steam

    Can you imagine the boss going into the bank with his original business plan and trying to convince the bank manager to bankroll him for the venture of creating a car insurance company only for women

    Isn't the whole Sheila's wheels concept just 'reverse sexism' anyway......discuss.

    Why be tongue in cheek, it's true!

    How far do you think anyone would get with, for example, Yorkie Insurance for Men - It's not for girls! They'd be sued to kingdom come in no time.

    I can't see how they get away with it to be honest.

    Apologies to the recent Yorkie chocolate advert campaign!

    Presumably they'd get away with it for the same reason that Saga get away with Insurance for over 65's.....they're just another 'group' for insurance purposes....just as people who are younger than 21 won't be insured because of statistics...similarly statistics show that women are 'safer' drivers, whereas some people might translate 'safer' to mean 'hestitant' in the case of women drivers. Not me, i think it's great that women drive, it's great that mums drive their kids to school in their Q7's or X5's, and that younger career women can drive around looking sexy in their MX-5's.....great!!!!
