alright Spadge

Was up milton keynes last night, (snowdome) On the way back, noticed a few done up motors.. Was a cruise on dunno if its every week, but loads of cars/old bill Mainly neons tho

Saw a nice Escos.. with cos number plate, and a 3dr up there.. you probably know them..

Anyway, get rid of the bean tin, and back to a 3dr as, its the only way your going to be 100% happy again

I dont blame you, i dont think i could get used to it either, just look like some goon in a S2 thinking he cool, rather than a weapon of a mota.

I could handle it if it didnt look like anything, looked like a base model, so nobody took any notice, but if people take notice id want it to be in a good way (ie look at that mad 3dr cossie) rather than in a bad way (ie look at that big bald ginger geezer in the babbwoi S2 ).

3dr/Rs500 all the way m8.

whoever made up the name bean tin?

feel like a leper (sp?) in me fez

i personally could never break a car that has had so much time/money spent on it.surely you'd be happier selling it on ?

was wondering if you test drove it before you bought it

anyway if you keep it ive got a nice carbon..............effect twin gauge pod ( a pillar ) lying around

anyway good luck with whatever you decide

Mate if i decide i don't want something then i will be happy regardless of how it goes as long as i get my cash out of it! Obviously i would rather it went in 1 piece to a more appreciative owner than me but thats up to the people out there not me!! Yes i did drive it and like the performance etc...and thought i would grow to like the look etc...but sadly i don't think i can Please bare in mind i am 40 in 2 weeks lol

oh sorry mate

probably want something a bit more comfy then, granada maybe? or even a vauxhall senator

do you have any trouble with the dvla? i'm sure someone told me you were only allowed to register a certain amount of cars within 12mths, and i'm sure you've had 3 or 4 in the short space i've been on here

i think you should rally it
