What was your first car?<\/b> The first car I ever drove was a Kia, which was my family\u2019s car. But the first car I actually purchased was only a couple of months ago and that\u2019s a little Mercedes A160, which is what I\u2019m driving around at the moment. It was kind of a spur-of-the-moment decision. I went to look at cars and came home with one. I didn\u2019t think I\u2019d buy one on the first day. I just thought it was really cute. It\u2019s black, it\u2019s got a sunroof and it\u2019s got a good stereo too, which is good.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s your ideal car? <\/b> I think maybe the next car I\u2019d want to get is a BMW X5. I like being up. Because I\u2019m so short I like a four-wheel-drivey kind of feel. But it\u2019s not going to happen any time soon.<\/p>\n
How long have you been driving now? <\/b> I\u2019m on my green P\u2019s, so I\u2019m just about to go and get my full licence.<\/p>\n
Have you been driving long enough to develop a pet road peeve? <\/b> My problem is that I kind of learnt to drive in LA. I spent the first six months of my driving life living there, so I learned to drive on the other side of the road. Also, everyone moves so quickly there. I guess my pet peeve here is when people ride the brakes and also stop right up the back of you.<\/p>\n
Isn\u2019t driving in LA like a near-death experience? <\/b> I guess most people think it is. But I love driving over there. I find I\u2019m more comfortable driving on the other side of the road than I am here.<\/p>\n
In a traffic jam: patient or impatient? <\/b> Very impatient. The traffic just seems to be getting worse in Sydney, so it\u2019s quite frustrating. It takes up a lot of your time in the day that could be productive.<\/p>\n
Do you have a favourite driving song? <\/b> At the moment I\u2019m loving Don\u2019t Stop The Music<\/i> [by Rhianna].<\/p>\n
Do you have a favourite drive? <\/b> I find I go on automatic pilot quite a bit, especially driving to my new dance studio. I spend so much time driving from home to the studio, sometimes three or four times a day, so that\u2019s my time to be by myself and listen to music and escape.<\/p>\n
Are you sponsored by a car company? <\/b> I\u2019m not. Can you hook me up?<\/p>\n
