A man who claims to have had *** with 1,000 cars has defended his
"romantic"
feelings towards vehicles.
Edward Smith, who lives with his current "girlfriend" - a white Volkswagen
Beetle named Vanilla, insisted that he was not "sick" and had no desire to
change his ways.
"I appreciate beauty and I go a little bit beyond appreciating the beauty
of
a car only to the point of what I feel is an expression of love," he said.
"Maybe I'm a little bit off the wall but when I see movies like Herbie and
Knight Rider, where cars become loveable, huggable characters it's just
wonderful.
"I'm a romantic. I write poetry about cars, I sing to them and talk to
them
just like a girlfriend. I know what's in my heart and I have no desire to
change."
He added: "I'm not sick and I don't want to hurt anyone, cars are just my
preference."
Mr Smith, 57, first had *** with a car at the age of 15, and claims he has
never been attracted to women or men.
But his wandering eye has spread beyond cars to other vehicles. He says
that
his most intense ***ual experience was "making love" to the helicopter
from
1980s TV hit Airwolf.
As well as Vanilla, he regularly spends time with his other vehicles - a
1973 Opal GT, named Cinnamon, and 1993 Ford Ranger Splash, named Ginger.
Before Vanilla, he had a five-year relation****p with Victoria, a 1969 VW
Beetle he bought from a family of Jehovah's Witnesses.
But he confesses that many of the cars he has had *** with have belonged
to
strangers or car showrooms.
His last relation****p with a woman was 12 years ago - and he could not
bring
himself to consummate it, although he did have *** with girls in his
younger
days.
Mr Smith, from Wa****ngton state in the US, kept quiet about his secret
fetish for years, but agreed to be interviewed as part of a channel Five
do***entary into "mechaphilia". He is shown meeting other enthusiasts at a
rally in California
Talking about how his unusual passion developed, Mr Smith said: "It's
something that grew as a part of me when I was a kid and I could not shake
it.
"I just loved cute cars right from the beginning, but over the years it
got
stronger once I got into my teenage years and was my first having ***ual
urges.
"When I turned 13 and the famous Corvette Stingray came about, that car
was
pure *** and just an incredible machine. I wanted it.
"I didn't fully understand it myself except that I know I'm not hurting
anyone and I do not intend to."
He added: "There are moments way out in the middle of nowhere when I see a
little car parked and I swear it needs loving.
"There have been certain cars that attracted me and I would wait until
night
time, creep up to them and just hug and kiss them.
"As far as women go, they never really interested me much. And I'm not
gay."
Mr Smith is now part of a global community of more than 500 "car lovers"
brought together by internet forums.
