What do you guys do to stop yourself?

Hey,

The past couple of weeks I have felt like going to the bank and just getting a loan and buying a newer car, I don't know why i feel like im losing passion for my car lately and its pissing me off. lol

Now with me moving out on friday with the misses getting a new car is NOT a good thing to do and further more there is nothing wrong with my car apart from my stuipd 17705 error back but i think i know what that is now and in the process of sorting it.

I got a funny feeling its cuz all my mates have newer cars than me which are alot faster.

I love my little golf and want to get it finished, what do you guys do to snap yourselfs out of feeling like this?

I also do this quite a lot, but then I spend more money on the mk4 and decided that actually it's not that bad

For example I almost sold it last year but bought air instead, I was on the verge of writing a for sale advert last night after the wheels going but the Mrs persuaded me to buy a new set of wheels instead which will keep me happy for a while

I modified mine



It's over 300 bhp per ton so it might keep up with newer cars, maybe

I do what dom does so either spend money on it or buy something else to take your mind off of it ! The end is actually near for mine though me and the mrs will be planning to have a kid soon and moving in together even sooner. The golf is not practical for a baby its far to harsh and I wont actually drive it if we lived together as I have a work van anyway so it would just be her car

All the above I have done in the past, my issue now is, I am at the stage were all the mods I need to do are expensive mods and don't have the money lol

But then youve got to ask yourself do you need to them ? My opinion get some skirt on it then your set !

do it for your self, not to keep up with mates/the jones' s.

I get what you mean buddy but there is only so much of "when you gunna get a decent car" banter you can take 

[Carl!]

banter is banter, it'll be something else if you had a different car!  If you are happy with it then it'll not bother you.
