Re: Cars
 

I 70% agree with you Dizzy. If it wasn't for other people's cars I wouldn't be able to get half as many lifts as I currently do when getting to various voluntary places. They are a bit of a necessity here in Wales, where nothing is really except in walking distance (except actually here in Aberystwyth) and it rains a lot :D

However, if I could afford to get a licence and a car I would get on with it, just because it's a bonus these days whenever people are looking to employ you.

But as it is, a bike would be much better suited to me, especially when I can just go to places on my own and not have to worry about people wanting to come with me, so no added responsibility :cheers::cheers::cheers:

Have you seen the size of some of my paintings!...theyd be like a sail - Id take off! ;) :lol: I must admit I often think I could just get hubby to pick the paintings up in the van, so then I could get rid of the car - but then when its really cold or wet - I can get in the nice warm dry car :rolleyes: :lol:

Re: Cars
 

I love cars. Great feel of G into the seat if you know what to blag a ride in :lol:

Bikes n cars give different buzzes, i like both. Plus i can't do a months food shopping on the bike.

Re: Cars
 

My car history is bad :( and has cost me a fortune.

In order of cars I have had...

205 - Engine failed
306 - Suspension fell apart all the time for now reason, the wheel fell off at one point, literally spent over £1000 kepping it on the road
205 Gti - Rarely ran right
106 Rallye - Best car I have ever had, had it 3 years bought it for £3900, sold it for £3800 and only ever replaced the tyres.
Laguna 1.9DCi - Fell apart, engine was slowly blowning up, turbo failed, gearbox failed, cost me £1500+ to get OK, then flooged it on the cheap at a loss of £1900
Current company car has had 31k put on it so far in a year and is going strong, although I ground it out coming out of a site the other day and its been making funny noises since.

I hate cars and will never actually own one ever again lol

Re: Cars
 

Because I only bought it the other day.

Nope, only trackdays for the Gixer, its racing life is over.

It looks like my CBR600 is getting prepped for racing in Thunderbikes with Danny Imberg at the helm. The CBR doesn't need a great deal doing to it to make it race-ready. I doubt it'll win anything, but it'll be a laugh.

Oh I would so love to .... :Dreams:
