I think you misunderstand me. I wasn’t judging you guys, I was judging myself. I wasn’t calling you guys chavs (though 99% of the population probably would as you’re car enthusiasts) but I was just viewing from an outside perspective.
Re the jap meet, I think that’s slightly different as I...
16 years ago I went on a meet and there was this 40 year old guy there. I remember thinking;
‘whats this 40 year old guy hanging around with a load of clio chavs for?’.
Now, I’m that 40 yr old guy.
Washed the car today and then it started pissing it down. Just had total messers on eBay with this car so looks like it’ll be staying. There’s worse cars to be smoking about in to be fair.
It’s just not a car I’d look back at when walking away from it. Brilliant cars no doubt but I still struggle to tell the difference between a 135i and a 116i.
Insurance isn’t that bad as long as you go with a proper company and not a Micky mouse broker.
Tax is what it is. One of those things.
I often get my mates going on about how much I spend swapping cars and then they go spend £150 a weekend getting pissed.
How risky is a £1000 172?
I’d say the risk is about £1000.
Considering most people spent that on three months pcp payments these days I’d say the risk is pretty low to be honest.
I don’t think I’ve ever had a problem selling a car.
To be honest, I don’t think I’ve ever had someone come and view one of my cars and not buy it!
Accurate description.
Realistic Price
Those two things make selling cars a piece of piss.
Maybe I haven’t found the car I want to keep hence why I keep searching.
I enjoy buying and selling and viewing as well. I think it would be nice to find that special car that I want to keep but I’ve owned about 100 now and still haven’t found it.
