obviously 'NO' , tell her to walk, its a boys toy,
just tell her you let her have the washing, ironing, cleaning,and looking after the kids all to herself, so its about time you had something
and also think ov all the dints , scratched wheels etc etc etc and it wont be her fault

My girlfriend has had a few powerful cars,she has a '95 WRX at the moment.
If she wants to drive my 340bhp WRX she's more than welcome to but if she kerbs my 18's she can start walking

Of course she should be allowed, or better still buy her her own like my hubby did.
Now i won't let him drive mine so i understand, But on the other hand if she is so good at all the work in the house think how clean your car will be.
My 03 STI is better looked after than the hubby and the kids. Let her have it, now don't be a meanie !!!!!

My wife insists it's 'our car'. I was put in an awkward position, if I said 'No!' she would have thrown a strop and now when she drives it and doesn't get the turbo going and I tell her how to, she throws another strop! Lose lose situation (apart from what I save on the insurance with her being on it 
).
).

when my missus used to drive my first fiat coupe 20vt (300+ bhp) i used to purposly leave it on low boost settings , but when i used to get back from work it had magically turned itself up , lol , ill give her crediit though as she does do all the important things and checks the oil/fluids and really looks after her cars.......

I get a bit of a woody when my GF drives my scoob.
I've taught her how to drive it properly. I actually taught her how to drive in a Nissan Pulsar GTIR (private road obviously)
Shes also used more than just her hand to change gear
