My ex'es have always hated the cossie, my current girlfriend hates the cossie, if I'd not hidden the receipts for the current restoration I guess she'd be an ex too, we are still renting also, I'm saving for a deposit but it's taking time and time goes by very quickly.
The car is the one thing I'm hanging onto, getting out in it or taking it to the track is like a part of me that I need, not done a track day in my own car in 10 years now but I'm hoping this year it will be back.
