Great carrying capacity, built for longer journeys, maybe not the fastest.... probably this.

But looking at my main bike, a ten year-old Tricross, I think the motoring equivalent would be a 4WD Skoda. Practical, solid, rugged and can handle rough(er) terrain.
So what car is your bike?
I'll go with that too
Granted there's no rack on my CGR, but the mounts are there (donated my pannier-bags to SWMBO, for her commuter Boardman)
I'll go along a few bridleways/into the Woods on it too, even on 'slicks'
I may be slightly biased as towards considering it the 2-wheeled equivilant of an Octavia 4x4, or Scout
This is my car (owned since it was 7 months old)

Presumably due to where it's parked outside the house?
The pavement's are very wide (on both sides)
The houses closest to us do, & there's still probably 4 foot between the near-side & our garden wall

Now clearly that's wrong. Audis tend to be driven far too fast and aggressively so the equivalent to an Audi in bike terms would be an S-Works carbon-thingy, superlight racer ridden by a MAMIL/MAWIL
