You liking your car has nothing to do with anything. At the end of the day, you can't afford to run it. It's as simple as that.



A grand isn't what I'd call breaking the bank, but still there are plenty of other choices. An E30 Bimmer, a bricky Volvo, heck, you seem to be a ford man, what's wrong with a boggo sierra? (1990 FORD SIERRA L BLUE on eBay, also, Ford, Cars, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 02-Mar-08 17:21:50 GMT))


Shop around. Entering your details into Confused/elephant/etc isn't going to get you a cheap quote unless you're a very average person looking to insure a very average car. Get on the phone



Still not enough to



I was only calling you that if you had 5 figures tied up in your car.



Great, now sell it for a profit.



Like I said, you're doing something very, very wrong .



Honestly mate, I just don't give a frick. I'm not on this website to make friends, I'm here to voice an opinion.

Just because that opinion doesn't sing the "That's a Wicked car!!!1!" tune everyone else has been playing doesn't give you a right to start name calling .

frickin hell, how to ruin a thread?

You dont like what the lads doing? then frick off =].

Dont clog his thread up with shit.

He seems more mature than you are at the minute mate.

So what if his choice of car doesnt match yours. Each to their own.

Your going a tad ott on the lad.


ANYWAYS..

Good luck with the project Corey, keep us all updated!

Corey
Insurance is a running cost.

If you can't afford the insurance you can't really afford the car.

If the car was being trailered to each and every event I'd have been able to understand a bit better, but it's being driven by the father just because you can't afford to drive it yourself.

Ugh. Talking to you Corey has been a comparable experience of talking to a brickwall which is an unfortunate trait of many people your age.

This is nothing more than yet another puberty fueled pipe-dream, but of course you know better, you're 16 .

I'm not going to spend anymore time trying to convince a person who doesn't want convincing. I'm in more or less the same situation, but if you don't want to profit from my advice, all I can do other than that is offer you a good old "Good Luck", becuase you'll certainly be needing it.

How can i profit from your advice m8 if all you are trying to do is to get me to sell my car which i havnt only got but also got plans for it??

Just out of interest how old are you? by the way you have been going on m8 i just think its that time of the month for you, nah really m8 in a way i like the way that you have some problems with me and my car rather then everyone else saying yes thats perfect which i cant really upgrade on can i?

Once again thanx and btw you arnt wasting your time but helping both of us come to terms of our difference in oppinions cheers anyway but i think im going to stick with my plans

dude you need to stop being such a frickin mug tbh, u just sound like your jealous of the lad, as said if you dont like what hes doin the f*uk off! simple as. your highly "profitable" advice sucks balls in my opinion


corey- sweet car mate, its hardly everyday you get given one of those at your age, and its good that your taking full advantage of it mate, i would to! dont listen to that bloke you would be frickin stooopid to sell it, but yea good luck with the rest of the stuff you have in the works mate

Corey, looks sweet lad! id say its fairly arese out with that lump in it! and dont mind what the frickwit is saying, i cant insure my 200sx for nearly 3 years techniquely, but thats not gona stop me spending money on it so that it sthe way i want when im selling it! after all, spending money on it nmow to get it right means you dont have to take it out of insurance money once its on the road!

My dad is currently building a mk3 escort Gartrac atm with a 24v boa engine and now he doesnt know weather he is turboing, charging or leaving N/A, cant wait until that is up and running because he will be using it for drifting then once its done i will invite him to the mad house (HERE) LoL
