BREAK OR SELL THE COSSIE
Peeps im thinking of selling or breaking the cossie - dont really want to but i want to buy a house and start saving 
- which is something that cant be done whilst I have the cossie as i spend all my money on it.
So what do i do - Sell it or break it. Just want to get a house, stick the fooker on rent for a few years and then get an RS500
Would be nice to have some spending money again and a "normal" car and one insurance policy
But I will defo miss the fookin thing - as anyone who knows me know how much i love cossies and its the only car I have ever wanted.

ill still be at rockys mate - just parked in the std saff ghia 
I could always cossie the saff tho - then chuck it around a track - dont think it would please the old man tho as he bought that car brand new and it still drives like new, with no squeeks or rattles and only 89k genuine mileage
Missing the cossie already

Store it.... deffo m8, you've spent Ł6K this year????????
Do me a favour, will ya?
Go outside, and kick the shit out yourself all over your garden, and into the street.
(unless you REALLY need the cash)
It's an investment dude.... think about it....
What's she gonna be worth in 5 years?
you'll be able to put a 50% deposit down fer fooks sake!
up to you in the end, but there's definetly more reasons to keep the car
Unless you've ran up a huge drug tick bill, and your gonna lose your bollox, then sell.

Weren't you looking to buy for rent ? If so, why don't you buy something further afield which will be cheaper and still get you on the property ladder.
Might allow you to keep the cossie, even if under wraps for a while, saves petrol, insurance, etc...

whatever you do don't sell it cos it's a fookin nice car.

PMSL @ the boy band. As much as I'm going to need years of counselling for saying this, it'd be fenny as feck seeing you lot dressed up and trying to sing ...It reminds me of a version of the Simpsons
Dont break it or sell it Ran, you'll only regret it like I did my last Cossy. If you get pushed then park it in the corner of my drive and throw a cover over it (but leave the keys and a full tank of fuel )

Keep it, get a loan. If it really comes down to it sell it but don't break it. I saw it at Felthem about a month ago and it looked mint parked at the front of the cineworld carpark.

i was going to sell mine. still may have to. not out of choice though. really upset about it but now just may store it for some time.
