It's Cool To Be Carfree

Wheels of Shame

Many stars seem to think that life is incomplete without a garage full of expensive metal. From footballers to film stars, from rockers to rappers, it seems that no celebrity worth their salt can live without making an automotive statement: does David Beckham really need  a car for each day of the week? You'd think that with all that disposable cash, slebs would just swan around in limos, and dispense with the hassle of actually owning a car. So where are the stars without cars?

Hall of Fame

The Toyota Prius has come along to green up the credibility of, among others, Gwyneth Paltrow, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jeff Goldblum, Billy Crystal, and Harrison Ford. But where are the stars without cars? Who are the celebrities who have not only handed in their Ferraris for something a bit greener, but have made a conscious choice to be car-free. Can you name the celebs who have made a statement by giving up their car? (Having your licence taken away because you've been sent to rehab doesn't count!).

So far, we have persuaded Alistair McGowan, Arthur Smith, Dave Gorman, Adam Hart-Davis and Nigel Planer to share their views of the carfree life. If you know of any other glitterati who have made the break, do let us know about the Stars Without Cars via the Forum pages.
