Is this sad or not...
was out the other day with my mate and i saw a man with his son who looked about 5 or 6, they were wearing subaru jackets exactly the same just different sizes obviously lol...
now i thought it was a little bit sad tbh, however my mate thought it was okay if he owned a subaru..which we never found out.
would you do it, both your and your nipper in saxo gear???

Maybe his dad is a massive Subaru fan and his nipper loves it when daddy straps him in and revs that flat 4 engine lol... or maybe they're wearing it as a Richard Burns/McRae tribute or something.

I think I can put my hand on my heart and say I would never wear a motorsports jacket even if I had the car to match.
See a guy down my local sometimes with a BMW jacket and he drives a Punto.

Dont judge a book by its cover as they say

i think that any child growing up around a car enthisiast will know what different cars are tbh.
my son loves his cars and he oves driving them with us, hes only a year and a half.
i think dads share there passions with there sons, its natural.
i wouldnt think twice if i saw it.
soon my son will be out with his dad in his own overals, just like his dad,

but if your bought up with cars, lorries, bikes etc etc around you, you know nothing different,
once a child becomes a certain age they can change there minds but id say its more likely for them to be in to it.
like my fella, his dads in to cars etc etc, hes well in to them now, more than his dad. my son now prefures to get the tools out the garage and pretend hes helping his dad, its what little boys do
