Lead us not into temptation.......

[DavyP]

Was sitting outside a while ago looking at my ED30, it was nice and sunny, I'd washed and waxed it yesterday, have to say its looking fantastic.  I guess it dawned on me I'm lucky to have such a nice car.

How-ever, I always seem to find myself looking at other cars, thinking of changing, don't know why, something I've always done I guess.

Is it just me or does anyone else live like that, always looking for more, never contented.  Maybe I need to meditate or take tablets, or be thankful for what I have?

i do it all the time but then i look at what i have and think u lucky twat not many people have what u have so just enjoy it

Im often the same as well, at work my two closest colleagues have a EVO 8 and a Skyline and i often think id like the perfromance of the evo or liner but at the end of the day they just arent me- IMO the golf is so subtle but attractive and the performance isnt shoddy at all, i coulnt sacrifice that for the jap rides!!

Plus i love the feeling you get when people say "is that your car? Wow its gorgeous!!"

Now if someone was to offer me a gallardo spider i might let the golf go

I look at Porsches nearly every day and marvel at how cheap they've become... then I remember what they cost to run/maintain!

Gotta say, coming from 2 Scoobys and an Audi S4, my GTI is suiting me quite nicely 

Had a moment of weakness the other morning where an M3 showed me what's what  (previous cars ate them for breakfast), but I take GREAT comfort in that my current car is MUCH cheaper to run, and isn't that far behind

I look at used E46 M3's every day, and if the right one came along I could be seriously tempted! 

[Caz]

Love my Jap cars.. would deffo go back there...
but as been previously said, to maintain and run, Gordon is dandy for the meantime.. 

[no golf clubs at all]

I'm the same with Porsche 911's

And a little with r32's (good ones)

[Greeners]

Nope, can't say there is anything at the moment that can get near my cars for the requirements I have!

There's only one car I want at the minute - the Scirocco R20.

I'm jobless at the minute so there's no way I could afford one, but when I see a Rocco on the road, I fall in love again!

no matter how good / nice or special our cars are , inevitably they become 'familiar' so we look to change.
thats why we mod it makes them change over time so they arent so familiar.
Lots of cars out there Id love to try but the current situation precludes that.
Im happy with what Ive got but that doesnt mean it doesnt need some extras

I thought about buying a second-hand Porsche or Beemer but they're too...common!

I am exactly the same. I had a white mk2 that i loved and spent a fortune on, i then got a mk4 1.8t that i again spent a fortune on and thought i was lucky to have that .
 I remember looking at ed30s when they first come out thinking i would do anything to own one and now i have one! I look at it all the time and think what i could swap it for or what else i coud/should have bought and just dont appreciate how awesome it is 

[Jules86]

All the time. Im looking at an audi RS4 avant next. I could get an M3 but the running costs are not worth it for a little bit more speed.
