Starting to wonder why I have spent all this money on a Corsa 
It looks nice (IMO) but I dont feel all that fussed about having a modified car anymore 
I've always known its a waste of money but now thinking I should of spent it on more worthwhile things 
Probably be thinking differently again next week but hey 
thats my random thought for today

after spending over £600 getting my car fixed i had the same feeling for a couple of days. It will soon pass.

it seems like a good idea to start with, you get the car how you want it but the only way to go after that is on to another car

I havent bought anything for my corsa for about 18 months now, not worth it, big waste of money.
Plus the whole part of having to get a new waterpump fitted the other week wasnt the best for the wallet.
i hate cars

nothing wrong with thinking like that mate. Having something you can aspire to helps to put things into perspective.
Like you, my corsa was a hobby, nothing more. Something I spent my money and time on for a little while. Now I drive a crappy Vectra but have my own mortgage at 22. Scary prospect but I know what I'd rather have.
(not slagging anyone off by the way, just my personal preference in life at the end of the day)

My thoughts exactly stuart
Personally I don't need a car at the moment as I travel to work on train and stations 5 mins walk, so I can't justify running a car that I don't like for use in my spare time, i'll only run one again when i can afford something really nice.

Would never spend a forune on actually modifying a car ever again, waste of time and money IMO

My random thought of the day....
Went to the pub with my mates last night, to watch football, i invited a girl mate along cos she said she was bored, she came, we all had a laugh.
I met her for a drink this afternoon on my lunch.
My thoughts are if she likes me.
