I made a decision that i'm keeping the pug until it's 3 years old, hits 70k or starts having problems.

Wasted so much money on cars over the years.

I too suffer from this condition Driving along I'll see a car that looks, or sounds remotely cool, so I'll search all websites for any local examples and start pricing up ideas before I even consider selling mine

I find myself always typing my current car into "search for PX" on PH... now that's addictive I actually get excited when a new car appears that wasn't there a few days before.
