Title: is it just me?
Post by: vaughn on 06 July 2011, 21:35
been off today, so been having a look round various forums and had a look at the classifieds saw a couple of cars i liked and not just thinking i wouldn`t mind that i was actually looking at when i could go have a look at them and at my finances to change both of my cars :laugh:.

i don`t need to change them but was really really tempted, and if i want something i usually try my upmost to get it :lipsrsealed:

is it just me or is it a general thing?

I do the same thing, I really need to stop though cause the money I lose on cars in crazy  :shocked:

I find myself looking round car showrooms, sitting in cars and thinking, "I could see myself driving this", next thing I know Im sat talking numbers with the salesman  :grin:

Not with cars as I know my finances wont allow that atm. But tools and garage equipment I just cant help myself. I find myself in machine mart or somewhere like that as "I'm just passing so may as well have a look" and get all excited thinking "ooh, I could do with one of them"  :grin:

i used to go through stages of getting either pissed off or bored so would look like when i sold my 1.8t for the R32 no need to but I 'wanted' it lol

Constantly looking at bikes on evil bay. There's a reallllyyyy nice gpz1100 not far away for not a lot of money with no bids.

Thoughts of if I sell this it should cover that are frequent.

Awwww, you sound like you need a hug.

I never use all my wit and humour in one thread.  That would be unfair on the poster.

No, I don't really buy stuff impulsively.

Cars *need* changing when they are no longer fit for one's purpose.

Luckily my wife gave me one when she got home :grin:

And there was me thinking you'd used your years supply of wit in that one post :wink:

I have no doubt you wouldn't buy anything on impulse :lipsrsealed:

Glad we all don't feel that way :smiley:

car prices are silly atm, a mate of mine just sold his ed30 with perfect bodywork, perfect interior other than a cig burn on the passenger seat that you couldnt even see as it was in the fold, and only 9000 miles for 13,700

I lol'ed at him for quite some time  :evil:

Yes, not on cars though. They get replaced when needed. Hopefully soon we'll have a car with bigger boot than we do now.
