Because they're pets, not workhorses.

Mine gets used everyday that's what a cars for!
I find when you leave a car stood for long periods things start to leak ,seize,,brake,perish or go wrong enjoy your car while you've got it eventually the tin worm will have more fun with it than you

Mine's been in the garage since the 29th October and it isn't due til mid May so I have genuinely forgotten what it's like to drive.
Having said that,it'll be like getting a new car when it's finished so that will be exciting. And just in time for the nice weather too.

I certainly won't be driving it in the wet though after spending all this time and money on it getting it right!!!
