It does make you wonder tho, i worked hard to pay for my cars, was just gettin into moddin the BM, fitted new num plates and indicators all round and was bidding on some 18's. Was lucky that i didn't win them as ive had to spend that money on the repairs; but now have lost all enthusiasm to mod it as it'll just get more unwanted attention
Would love to have a second car to run back and forth from uni with but there is no way that i can afford to tax, insure and buy another car and whats the point in havin a nice car if you can't drive it!!

My mate got a brand new astra convertible a month ago, since then someone has keyed the rear quarter panel, and the other day keyed the whole bonnet from the windscreen to the headlight, makes you sick

how about you buy a run about for uni, then when you leave uni get a decent car would be the most sensible thing if you believe that it is only happening at uni...otherwise you will just end up with more damage etc and end up paying loads of money on repairs because of people jealousy etc etc

well if you dont wanna get rid of it mate, then you will have to live with the expenses of getting it fixed every other month etc - although i know what i would go for though. Plus whats wrong with getting one after uni? surely the money you save will by you something even better
