Know where your coming from. I did the same when i sold my last escos...just couldnt be arsed anymore and wanted something comfy and useable. I then got into bikes and although they are awesome i find you need even more time for them! But cars ive always been into since i was a nipper.
Luckily i now have both. The A3 s sline tdi and got the RSi to fiddle about with and im happy. I really wouldnt have an escos or anything like that again at this present time....
