I did the unthinkable today, my car hates me
« on: 18 September 2006, 13:44 »
I actually thought about selling my car.  :cry: Then got really upset at the thought of saying goodbye to it!  :cry:

Well that was a silly thing to think about wasn't it... :rolleyes:

You've only just had the engine done haven't you? It'll bring the smile back to your face when you can give a bit of stick...more than 3.5k aswell... :grin:

Yeah I know!  :rolleyes: I am now very cross with myself for even thinking about it!  :angry: Its just I get so annoyed at not being able to drive it properly - by that I mean on a clear road rather than in f*cking traffic jams all the time. 70% of my 16mile journey to work is spent queuing! It f*cks me right off! I can't enjoy driving it anymore as I'm constantly worrying about it overheating in traffic.

My old engine died because it overheated. I know what you mean about worrying in traffic. I couldn't keep my eye off the temp for ages afterwards. I still get a bit edgy now but after nearly 5k miles alls still well  :wink:

Just stick with it, you'll stop worrying when it's gone a while without playing up  :smiley:

I'd say more understandable than unthinkable Gem with all the probs that you keep having. :sad: If you want me to be honest, and I love your enthusiasm, but I do think there needs to come a time where you need to seriously think about where you want to go with this one. :undecided:

If anyone on here needs some good luck and fortune to go with their enthusiasm then I reckon it needs to be you. Good luck with whatever you decide. :smiley:

Edit: You gotta laugh at this though. :laugh:
