Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

0 t's official: according to a recent survey, size doesn't matter. The survey, by Lombard Motor Finance, asked car dealers who made the purchasing decisions in their showrooms and found that women make equal or main decisions in 68% of car sales-30% of purchases are made by couples and 18% by women alone. And, whereas 67% of men are impressed by acceleration, only 19% of women take engine size into account.

When it comes to the crunch—working out whether the car can actually be afforded and how it should be paid for-76% of women are either the main decision makers or have equal input. As for choosing the car's colour, it's no contest, fellas: 74% of women have the final say on this one. After all, it's got to match the curtains in the garage (Dud'senough gratuitous sexism—Ed).
