the wife bought a 924, met the guy in Easton Gordano services she drove it back and said i hate it lol, luckily it was a limited edition Le Mans and was one of Porsche UK Atrium cars so she made a few quid on it.

Pretty much any BMW or merc I've bought, seems like a good idea at the time then I hate them after novelty wears off. Usually after a few days I just feel car sick like I'm in my grandads car or something

Did you go for a manual or auto ? Get it mapped im sure that will put a big smile on your face is yours the 186 or 204hp model ? Mines the later an really flies so much so im not sure if i really need mine doing but with such gd power gains claimed for the 330d's i guess it would be rude not to really lol

Bought a 205 GTi on eBay as a stop gap runaround, picked it up from Preston... by the time I'd hit the M6, I absolutely hated it. So I drove it the 300 miles home, put it in the drive, walked into the house, re-listed it on eBay and never touched it again until it sold.

I'm suffering this feeling! i buy a car always wanted, then after awhile i think is it worth having the money tied up in it, when latly i have no time to maintain a nice car, and dislike the fact i cant use and abuse it.
Then when i get old rattler i wish i could get a nice car again! Some people like me are never happy!!! lol
My 330cd Convertible will be up for sale in August and going back to old scrapper for awhile.

I have a remapped 535d and love the bloody thing. If you dont like the 330 then have a drive in the 530D and see if you like that any better. THey do say that you are either a 3 or 5 series driver.

No.Even when I gave my bro Ł300 to get me a runabout after my Ł200 rover vitesseIT HAD A BOOST LEAKWHEN I GOT IT,(nippy and comfy)blew it's box,returned with a cavalier2.0gls.It was good.Got pulled over by the police a lot,but the car was great.FOR 2 MONTHS.Headgasket!.I can't afford a 3 door,so appart from one of them I just try cars out.Went after an RSturbo.Bloke couldn't even arrange a viewing properly(he has a lot of car's on Pistonheads)so I went and bought a mk6 RS2000.When I do get the WHITE 3 door,I feel I won't be disapointed.Well,I hope so.

Focus 1.6 estate after selling my stage 3 saph 4 years ago
Needed the estate for the pram and shite but the 1.6 was fuckin dire and gutsy on petrol
Wish it had been the diesel version i have now for running about in and would have gladly kept it as there so cheap to run but the 1.6 ......
Vauxhall cavalier td izuzu was the biggest pile of turd i have ever owned, was meant to be a cheap runner for work but had to keep using the cossie as it was far more reliable

I bought a mint escort cossie a fair few years ago and didnt take to it. Found it very boring to drive, no where near as much fun as my old saff cossie (both stg3), not too sure why. Also had a scooby wrx which lasted 20 days!!!! Bored!!
