Individual with a fetish for machines. Typically desiring some form of sexual congress with machines. Either very specific machines or very wide ranging in tastes.

Schlessinger published his story-showing his wide range of tastes.

The commonest is a love of vehicles-cars, motorbikes, trucks in particular. Boats and other variations can be found appealing too.

Other mechaphiles go for working engines, power tools and similiar.

A wide variety of sexual techniques can be employed. One mechaphile (me) has a manual on how to make love to a car or other vehicle, for example. There are also groups on yahoo for the same fetishes.

autophile is referred to, however is incorrect.

Get the mechaphile mug.
Technically speaking it's not a man who has sex with cars. As I'm one such I know my subject. An autophile is in love with him or herself sexually. So I'm stuffed for a good word to use (apart from the often heard, insane, crazy, etc). The only alternative I've heard is automobiliphilia. Quite a mouthful, more than the gearknob of a Jaguar XJ8 so probably won't be popular. There probably should be two words. One for a person who loves his car on every level and has it as a substitute totally for a human partner and one for a man who simply fucks it.
Since I'm simply adding a correction to a word, not sure what a relevent example would be. Apart from mentioning that I myself am an avid automobilophile, not autophile (not the only thing in my life mind!).
